1969 - 1971 various locations
??
2 discs (3 discs CDRom) Early BBC material as well as some early
live recordings.
2001 
May, 1971 Rome,
Italy AU
Before they opened with Firebird Suite, Yes opened
their shows with "2001". This early recording features the
18.37 version of "America", as well as a nearly 15 minute version
of Everydays. A bit of nostalgia for the old folks....
Perpetual Change
July 24, 1971 Newhaven, Connecticut
SB
Very nice early soundboard recording of the last stop of the
U.S. tour supporting The Yes Album. The band opened for Grand Funk (!) and,
of course, features Bill Bruford on drums.
Out Of The Valley
October 11, 1971 Civic
Center, Wolverhampton, UK AU
2 Discs. Opening, Roundabout I've Seen All Good
People, Mood For a Day, Clap, Heart Of The Sunrise, Rick Wakeman solo, Long

Alternate Yessongs
November 11, 1972
Durham, NC AU
2 discs. Clear sounding "up front" audience
recording from Duke University, Durham NC. Last 4 tracks are from the
Yale Bowl, CT concert of July 71'.
The White Album
January 21 1972 Amsterdam
AU
A rather nice audience recording of some vintage Yes
from the winter of 72' European Fragile tour. Also has Gates of
Delerium from Hollywood 75' tacked on the end. I believe this was
mastered from the LP of the same name, which has long been a popular Yes
collectors album.
Suite Distance
August 13, 1972 Columbia Post
Pavilion, MD AU
2 discs. Early renditions of some CTTE material, as
well as some classics off of The Yes Album and Fragile. Surprisingly
pleasing sounding audience recording.
And
You and I
March 12, 1973 Osaka, Japan
AU
2 discs. Nice disc set from the Close to the Edge tour.
Included is "Sakura Sakura", a Japanese folk song. Jon introduces And You And I as being
about the "coming political breakdown that we all hope will happen real
soon...". (?)
Tales From Down Under
1973
March 19, 1973 Brisbane,
Australia AU
2 discs. These early Yes performances are great.
Generally the sound is not all that great, but the performances really
shine. Such is the case with Tales From Down Under. Raw energy of
early Yes on disc. After "The Clap" Jon proclaims
"you're the first audience to ever clap all the way through
that". Certainly not the last!
Tales From the Edge
April 14, 1974 Ludnigshateen AU
2 discs. Features the complete Close To The Edge
album, as well as all of Tales From Topographic Oceans, with the exception
of "The Remembering". Also includes Starship Trooper and
Roundabout. Collectors will want this snapshot of the Tales tour...
Songs
From Topographic Oceans
February 18, 1974 New York, NY
AU
One of the few complete Tales from Topographic Oceans shows, as
performed in Madison Square Garden, New York, 1974.
Topograpic
February 28, 1974 | November 1st 1973
Detroit, MI | BBC AU | ?
Tales from Topographic Oceans in it's entirety as performed in
Detroit, 1974. Also included, an added track of Revealing Science of God performed

I, Close To The Edge, The Revealing Science of God, The Ancient, Ritual,
Roundabout, Starship Trooper.
Live at the Long
Beach Arena, California
March 19th 1974 Long Beach, CA
AU
Cover says "Supermarvelousutterlyterrificsound".
Well, not really, but worth having nonetheless! Close to the Edge, The
Revealing, The Ancient, Roundabout, Starship Trooper can be heard on this
disc mastered from a long collected vinyl LP.
The Remembering
December 4 1974 Fort Worth, TX
AU
2 discs. Close to The Edge, To Be Over, Gates of Delirium,
And You And I, Ritual/Remembering, and Roundabout. Another Moraz era
artifact...
Experience
the Future
December 11 1974 | March 19th 1974 Boston,
MA | Long Beach, CA FM | AU
First two tracks from the Boston show. Revealing Science of
God and Ancient from Long Beach, CA. Howe really shines in this version of The
Ancient, which is somewhat different than the original studio arrangement.
Re
Evolution
December 11 1974
Boston Gardens, MA Soundboard/FM?
Good quality recording probably originating from a KBFH radio show.
Soon The
Light
June 23, 1975 Long Beach,
California Soundboard(?)
2 Discs. Another show Moraz fans won't be without!
The Music Reincarnate
- Rick Wakeman
1976
Hammersmith, London
Nice sounding live recording
featuring music from "No Earthly Connection", as well as Catherine
Howard, Sir Lancelot, Catherine Parr, and Merlin The Magician.
Live Vol.
1
June 17, 1976 Jersey
City, New Jersey FM
This disc features the tour following the Relayer
tour, commonly referred to as The Solo Tour, as evidenced by the inclusion of
Anderson's "Sunhillow". Sound quality is not great, but is
definately listenable, and should be a part of any Moraz era Yes collection. We just
have to imagine the Crab Nebula "War of the Worlds" stage while listening to
this disc!
Quasi Mystical
Vision
June 17th 1976 Roosevelt
Stadium, NJ FM
Features A nice Moraz solo as well as Sunhillow
by Anderson.
Live
in Springfield, MA
August 10th 1977
Springfield, MA AU
2 discs. Yes plays to an enthusiastic
general admission crowd in Springfield's Civic Center. Overall a nice sounding
audience recording without many disctractions, and a great performance.
Yesshows 77
September 26 1977
Longbeach, CA AU
Very much an audience recording,
but still very listenable. Four tracks from Going For the One, Colours
of the Rainbow, Here in Longbeach, and the obligatory Roundabout round out
this disc.
Making For The
One
197?
? Studio
2 disc set. Two full discs of edits,
outtakes, rehearsals, etc., from the preparation for "Going For The
One" album and tour.
Going For The One Tour
Rehearsals
197?
Lititz, Pennsylvania Studio?
7 tracks of material preparing for the Going
For The One tour.
A
Wondrous Evening With Yes
October 7th 1977
Memphis, TN AU
2 disc set from the Mid South Coliseum show,
Memphis Tennessee. A little static makes for a slightly less than wonderous
recording, but completists will want this recording documenting the Going For The One
tour.
Moments Delight
(Going For To Paris)
December 5/6, 1977
Paris, France AU
2 Discs. Another nice
Highland release featuring the Going For the One Tour.
Madrigal
Mystery Tour
September 18, 1978/ October 28, 1978/ June 9,
1979 Cleveland/London/Chicago FM/?/?
2 Discs. Primarily FM broadcast from
Cleveland. Nice sound and performance.
Wembley
Arena 1978
October 28, 1978
London, England FM
2 Discs. FM broadcast of the often
bootlegged 78' Wembley Arena concert. This is probably the most complete, track
wise, of the 10-28-78 Wembley shows listed here. Contains an excellent performance
of Awaken.
Yes In
The Round
October 28, 1978(?)
London, England FM
LP boot of the same name mastered to CD.
Some confusion exists as to the source. I am certain that at least a couple of
tracks are from the October 28th Wembley show (see discs below). Jon's intro,
however, to Heart of the Sunrise, is different, than Wembley Arena 1978. There were
three shows at Wembley - 10-27, and an afternoon and evening show on 10-28, so perhaps
this LP/disc is a composite? Someone clear this up for me!
Live in London 1975 - Super Golden Radio Shows #21
October 28, 1978
London, England FM
Welcome to the wonderful world of bootlegs.
This show is really from 1978, not 1975 as
the label implies. A tight performance by the quintessential Yes lineup.
Consistantly excellent sound quality.
Yes in Concert 1979 - Super Golden Radio Shows #46
April 18, 1979 Quebec
City, Canada FM
Not the full show, but a good quality disc nonetheless.
Yes -

Circus of Heaven
April 18, 1979 Quebec
City, Canada SB
2 discs. A more complete representation of the 79'
Quebec City show. Very good sound quality.
Tourmato
May 5, 1979 Vancouver,
British Columbia SB
2 disc set. Highlights include 6 minute Wakeman solo, leading
into the 18 minute Awakening.
Digital
Reels and Master Reels
1978 and 1979
Higland release of a compilation of studio material for the followup
album to Tormato.
Golden Age
1979 Paris, France
Rough studio mixes of songs that were to be
contained on the album following Tormato. This album was not to be, however, and,
instead, Wakeman and Anderson left the band prior to the release of Drama. No
material made it onto officially released albums, however a couple of songs were featured
on Song Of Seven, Anderson's solo album.
Complete
Dramatized Tour
September 1, 1980 Hartford, CT
AUD
2 disc set. Very good sounding audience recording that almost sounds
like soundboard. First stop in the United States for the Drama tour, this set is, I
believe, the whole show. For those searching for Drama era live material, this is
supperior, quality wise, compared to the Age of Buggles, below.
Age
of Buggles
September 6, 1980 New York, New York
FM
2 disc set. A true rarity, features not only live versions of DRAMA
tracks, but a Buggles-laced keyboard solo with licks from "Video Killed the Radio
Star," and two unreleased original tunes only heard on this tour. Finally, some
classics - while Trevor Horn is clearly not Jon Anderson, they hold up pretty well.
This disc sometimes appears as a single, but, since it contains 77 minutes of music, must
be split onto two CDRoms.
Into The
Drama
November
24, 1980 Leicester, England
AU
2 disc set. Whoo Hooo!
Another double disc set from the 1980 tour for all you Dramatists.
Includes 16 tracks, plus "Go Through This (bass intro version)",
and White Car accapella, which were recorded December 6, 1980 in Manchester,
UK.
Jon Anderson - Royal
Event
December 1, 1980 London,
England
Slightly muffled sound doesn't detract to much
from this Anderson solo performance. Interesting mix of tunes, such as
Song of Seven, Prophet, Tales Medley, Petrushka, and much more.
Alone on the Edge
1982 Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania FM
Jon Anderson solo tour featuring many Yes songs
as well as songs from his solo album Animation. A version of Roundabout by Yes
(Boston 74?) is tacked onto the end.
Jon Anderson - Ocean
Songs
August
25, 1982 New Orleans, Lousianna
AU
2 disc set. A very complete
representation of Anderson's 82' solo tour, featuring more tracks than the
"Alone on the Edge" disc, which appears to come from a King
Biscuit broadcast. Ocean Song, State Of Independence, Song of Seven

Stories, And You And I (excerpt), Long Distance Runaround, Close To The Edge

Twelve Inches On Disc
198?
? Studio
This is a neat disc to
have. Alternate Dance versions of a lot of Yes material. Some of
us old timers will recall hearing some of this stuff playing while we found
our way to our seats before some of the 90125/Big Generator concerts.

Tracks missing from "Live in Argentina", that were
a part of the original show. Mastered to disc

Big

Surprisingly good sounding demos of the Big Generator album,
and a couple of dance mix versions. Two versions of Shoot High Aim Low with
substantially different lyrics. Interesting!

We Make
Believe
1989 (?)
2 disc set. Outtakes from demos of music that
was to be released on the second ABWH album. As we know, ABWH disbanded and Yes
reformed to produce Union instead. This is perhaps the most sought after Yes
boot, owing to the excellent compositions and good sound quality, and rarity of the
material. Also featured is an early, and more developed, version of Take the
Water to the Mountain. A must have for Troopers!
Another Page of Life -
Jon Anderson

Masters
of Time
March 3, 1992 Nagoya, Japan
Audience DAT
3 disc set. Features the entire Union show live. Good
quality sound, and well as a polite and quiet audience makes for a very enjoyable disc
set. Hear Jon attempt to clown around in Japanese! This is a better Union
disc than "Say Yes", which is "speeded up" to fit on two discs.
Jon Anderson -
South America 1993
1993 South America - various
SBD
2 disc set. Tour mainly in support of "Toltec", but
includes interesting variations of a number of Jon Anderon/Yes tunes.
Jon Anderson - San
Juan, Puerto Rico
April 16, 1993 San Juan, Puerto
Rico AU/DAT
2 disc set. Jon performs alot of Tolte material
in front of an enthusiastic audience. Also includes a few old

recording, but good clear sound.

Jon Anderson - Power of

Believed to be the
"Geffen" version of Power of Silence, which was never
released. Very similar to "Toltec", without the LongWalker
segments.
Gimmee More
June 18, 1994
Binghamton, New York In House FM
2 disc set. Opening night of the Talk
tour. This disc set (along with others on the Talk tour) has some nice
sound, thanks to the "in house" FM broadcast. Yes fans will
remember this gimmick to allow a better sound experience by wearing your
walkman headphones, and tuning into the broadcast while watching the
concert. I remember that it didn't help much, but apparantly helped
some people make better sounding recordings of this tour!
Endless

June 19, 1994
