I'm pretty sure Clem Clempson and David Sancious were involved. Don't recall
who the others were, but the boot I have is a great performance.

Yeah...that's probably the boot that I have. It was definitely a radio
broadcast. There was a reed player on this tour as well, whose name I don't
recall. Very well arranged Yes medley for the opener...well played, and quite
energetic. As I recall, it went on for quite sometime. I'm weeded that one out
a few times over the years.....

It was essentially the band used on the album; Sancious, Clempson,
Stefano Cerri on bass. Simon Phillips couldn't make it, so Jon hired a
drummer named Guy Shiffman (who recorded an album for Columbia seven
years later as "Guy Mann-Dude"--as a shred-head *guitarist*). It was
the first time I'd ever actually seen a Simmons drum in use.

The radio broadcast concert boot that I have has a reed player on it, unless
I'm having another "senior moment". I'll be happy to burn you a copy if you
promise to weed it out on the list here.

uh, I saw the show and have several copies of the radio broadcast, including
the original cassette I made at the time of the broadcast.
But thanks for the offer...I think.
(what does "weed it out on the list here" mean?)

It is a term used in trading lists. It is a one of many methods of distributing
a given boot amongst interested people.....I'm kind of suprised that you are
unfamiliar with the term. I've been involved with several trading circles for
quitetime. They are all over on Yahoogroups, and fairly open to new members as
long as you play by the rules, the biggest rules being that money is never
exchanged...only cds... & that you don't trade stuff that is in commercial
release currently. If you can live with that (at least for the record) you
collection can grow exponentially in a very short period of time and with
minimal expense (postage, time & disks).

What's the setlist? You might be talking about a different show.

Rob "there was no reed player" Allen
So I go rummaging through the boxes where I keep this kind of stuff, and when I
located it...lo and behold....it was the 12/1/80 show at the Royal Albert Hall,
a show I'm sure Rob attended as well. So I stand corrected. At least I wasn't
halucinating about the reed player....just the date. I guess if you can really
remember what you were doing in the 80s, you couldn't have been having that
good of a time....wait a second...I think I said that about the 50s, 60, 70s &
90s too....shit !!!
Anyway, the setlist began with two extensive Yes medleys which included TBO,
PC, ?, LDR, WS, Rejoice, YM/AGP, Revealing excerpt, AGP, & a cool Topographic
medley. After that it was all solo stuff. Its a great performance. It's too bad
they never released this, as the FM broadcast quality is the only thing that
detracts from this recording, and even that ain't too bad.

I have money to spend...and some suggest that my collection is already far too
big.
But thanks for the info...

Anyway, as I suspected, you were talking about the '80 (Song of Seven) tour.....
and this confirms it.

Well, there's also a couple of Vangelis/Anderson tunes, and a cover of
the fourth movement of Stravinsky's 'Petrushka'.
Its a great performance. It's too bad

I agree. It's a great boot.

At the UK show? Cool.
That tour never made it to the States, AFAIK.

Were it that I could have actually been there.....I'd be home by now!

It's a step above most boots, in performance and the fact that its a board mix,
in spite of the FM hiss.
Most Yes boots of that timeframe (more or less) that I have aren't anywhere
near as listenable, although there are some notable exceptions.

Doesn't answer who the touring line up was....but I must point out that the
Ziplink links for Yescography are out of date. Yescography is at
http://yescography.tripod.com . I've been trying to reach Ziplink to have
them remove the old files, but I haven't been successful. Those have to be
at least four years old.
