Yes-Keys to Ascension I

Keys to Ascension es un álbum doble en directo de la banda inglesa de rock progresivo Yes, publicado en 1996. Es su quinto álbum en vivo. Es la primera vez que Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman y Alan White trabajan juntos desde Tormato, en 1978. Las siete primeras canciones del álbum fueron grabadas en San Luis Obispo, California, en tres conciertos en marzo de 1996, mientras que las otras dos son canciones nuevas grabadas entre 1995 y 1996. Otras grabaciones en directo, que no fueron incluidas en este disco, sí formaron parte de Keys to Ascension 2.

Keys to Ascension is a double album by the British progressive rock group Yes and was released in 1996. The last time Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Steve Howe, Rick Wakeman and Alan White had worked together on officially released studio recordings was 1978's Tormato. It is the band's fourth live album.

The first seven of the album’s nine tracks were recorded live in San Luis Obispo, California’s Fremont Theater during three nights in March 1996. The purpose of these concerts was to capture the spontaneity of a live performance under controlled conditions, similar to that of a studio. These performances were also filmed and released as a live video under the same title.

The last two tracks are studio recordings of new compositions recorded in November 1995 (with subsequent overdubs and post-production lasting into 1996). Other live recordings not released on this album were held over for release in 1997 on Keys to Ascension 2.

Note: "That, That Is" is Yes' seventh song over 18 minutes.
