Yes 1976-05-01 - Rehearsals Millersville May 1976

Ok all you Yes fans. Here it is: the Relayer lineup of Yes rehearsing before the 1976 tour and it includes the Remembering. I got this tape in the arly 80's and it was labeled Millersville, PA. Since then I've heard that its really Lititz, PA and even that its Roanoke, VA. Right now I'm sticking with Millersville as that was what my 20 year old tape reads. I wish that a better source would surface and/or that someone could defnitively say where the venue actually was and the exact date. Forgotten Yesterdays says Roanoke, VA, 5-27-1976 (day before their 1st show), but I question that. 

Can't tell you the generation and this recording suffers from several things: some warbling, some distortion, and the echoing venue itself. I have cleaned this up sound-wise as best that I could. I removed some of the hollow sound, did some noise reduction, did some eq-ing, speed corrected, and smoothed out the spots where the taper turned on/off the recorder. I've kept the CDs in sync with the tape flip so nothing is missing. Some would argue that I could have cut out some dead space and fit this on 1 CD, but being a completist I couldn't do it. Feel free to redo it if you want. When putting in track markers I made tracks where the band wasn't playing any song, but the time was at least a minute in length.
