| Note | *** The tape runs out during the middle section of Perpetual Change. The recording
picks up again during the wrap-up of the song. Apparently the entire drum solo was missed by the taper. Since some type of edit would be required to put the two pieces of the song together without the middle section, I cross-faded the two fragments in a style similar to the studio version of the song, in which the two Yes bands play against each other on opposite stereo channels. A NOTE ON SOUND QUALITY FOR THOSE WONDERING: really it's not that bad at all. Obviously it's AUD quality, but it's pretty comparable to the 11/24/71 Academy of Music show, perhaps slightly less crisp. Still, all instruments/vocals are heard loud and clear, the audience is quiet and well-behaved and the remastering by Toole Man has apparently straightened out most of the problems with EQ. This is a great show, too. The "Heart Of The Sunrise" with Wakeman on electric piano, mellotron, chintzy farfisa - basically everything BUT the standard organ - is a great item, and the performances are superb. |

| Comment |
* Apparently the band's organ either broke down or did not arrived at the concert hall. Rather than stop the show for twenty minutes and wait for the instrument to arrive, Jon called for Long Distance Runaround and The Fish instead of Heart of the Sunrise - but not before he had already given his lengthy introduction to the latter. ** Jon again introduces Heart of the Sunrise, determined to play this important song from the "new album" (Fragile) in spite of the still-missing organ. Who are those additional voices? And is that a dog barking while the band tunes up? Wakeman fills with piano where we usually hear the organ in the introduction to Heart of the Sunrise. |
