Yes
New York City
February 18, 1974
YesSongs 2.1: an upgrade to YesSongs 2, celebrating the 35th anniversary of this concert.
Source: low-gen audience recording seeded by Glasnostrd19 on Dimeadozen -> Sound Forge and Vegas -> FLAC
Dedicated to Jon Anderson and Chris Squire, the founding members of Yes, who are both ailing and off the road as of this writing.
This copy of the recording has an incredible crispness not found in the other copies I've owned. (To think I've been mastering copies of this recording for over 10 years now. The first was a cassette copy of the vinyl LP "The Affirmatives," which ran too fast and had a fade-out of the end of "The Remembering." I plugged the cassette player into a light socket connected to a dimmer and got it close to the right speed.)
Thanks to Mr. Glasnostrd19 for the great tape.
Unfortunately, this one isn't perfect, either, but we're getting there.
Have some tea, and enjoy.

I attended this show... nice to have this momento. How many times can I say "Thanks, Dave"? Probably as many times as I download a jewel.
wow...now that ive heard a lossless of this, i can truly say this is as good sounding as any Millard recording. i cant understand why the rest of this show hasnt surfaced; that would be incredible!!
anyways, ill make a copy of this for my mom. she was at the Boston show the next night (and quite a few other YES shows throughout the 70's as well!!), and TFTO is still one of her favorite albums of all time even though she doesnt listen to much outside of NPR anymore...
thanks!!!
This deserves more downloads. AUD B+ (Exc-), VG set, quite enjoyable. Thanks Dave!
