Overview
Like It Is: Yes at the Bristol Hippodrome is a partial recording of the Yes show on 11 May, 2014, at the Bristol Hippodrome as a part of their 2013–14 Three Album Tour. The recording features only two of the albums, Going for the One (1977) and The Yes Album (1971) played live in their entirety. Thus, the Close to the Edge album is missing.
