Live at Montreux 2003 is a music live recording by YES (Symphonic Prog/Progressive Rock) released in 2007 on cd, lp, vinyl and/or cassette. As someone who has heard an awful lot of live Yes recordings (both licit and otherwise) I'm going to hit this particular album track by track. This is from the Full Circle tour, which didn't impress me quite as much as the 35th Anniversary Tour but comes close. Are you interested in Yes live music?

Live at Montreux 2003 may not be quite up to Yessong' performance standard; but it's certainly a very close second. It's also notable as Yes' only live record to feature its classic album Fragile (Atlantic, 1972) in near- entirety. Not only are concert staples "Heart of the Sunrise," "Roundabout," "Long Distance Runaround" and "The Fish" included, but the less often heard "We Have Heaven," and, more importantly, the epic/episodic rocker "South Side of the Sky" are included on record for the first time. Pared down from the "with orchestra" versions on Magnification (Beyond, 2001), they are, if not quite classic, engaging enough. The only real misstep is "Don't Kill the Whale," from Tormato (Atlantic, 1978), which was insipid then and remains insipid now. That said, at just over four minutes, it's easy enough to dismiss.

Live At Montreux 2003. Yes is one of the most innovative and successful rock bands of all time with a career that now spans five decades. In 2003 the band made their first appearance at the Montreux Festival, despite having a long association with the town itself (they recorded there frequently in the seventies). It was a triumphant night and is regarded by both the band members and fans as probably the finest Yes gig ever to be filmed.
