I cannot possibly express how little interest I have in this. Really? 7 shows of the same damn songs on the same damn tour with the same damn lineup? They picked the show(s) that ended up on Yessongs for a reason - they were the best. 7 discs of outtake versions :deadhorse

Couldn't agree more. I'll find this in an alternate fashion.

I'd be good for one listen, perhaps, just to hear the differences. But the investment of ownership of that, I don't think so.

It's still YES at their peak more or less so at least the hardcore Yes fans who have to have everything by the band will want it. Not sure if I fall into that category(I still haven't bought "heaven and earth"). But at least this is from their vintage period.
