In HOUSE OF YES — LIVE FROM THE HOUSE OF BLUES, airing on PBS in May 2000 (check local listings), the group proves they are still one of the most innovative and creative bands in rock. The one-hour special was taped October 31, 1999, at the House of Blues in Las Vegas. The band's unconventional approach to music began in 1968, when Yes founders Jon Anderson and Chris Squire formed the group, which went on to achieve commercial and critical success all over the world. The band has seven platinum and five gold albums, with more than 30 millions albums sold worldwide. They have been nominated for several Grammy Awards and were the first band to sell out six shows at Madison Square Garden -- beating Led Zeppelin's record of five. HOUSE OF YES -- LIVE FROM THE HOUSE OF BLUES features the classic Yes line-up of Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Steve Howe and Alan White along with Billy Sherwood and Igor Khoroshev, and includes classic Yes songs: "Roundabout" "I've Seen All Good People" "Owner of a Lonely Heart" "And You and I" "Yours Is No Disgrace." The band also performs songs from their new, acclaimed 1999 release The Ladder. Day & time: check with your local station Credits Producers: Beyond Music, House of Blues and Left Bank Organization.
