-reseed-
Here's about what I once wrote seeding it for the first time:
This concert I taped so many years ago I can't remember what equipment I used
(the same as at the Genesis-1977-gig I seeded here earlier)
I remember it was a big recorder with an included microphone.
I layed the recorder on the ground of the hall right inside the middle of the floor about
15 metres from the stage.
All the people around were sitting down those days.
The sound quality is o.k., I think it is for fans only or those who collect everything.
There are cuts due to tape-flip after "Close to the edge" and in the middle of
"Awakening".
This concert is still in my Top Twenty ever concerts of my life (as the one from Genesis that year too)
again seeing it from the point of how I enjoyed it when I was there.
Today...hmmm??? This is definitive not the music I prefer now. Although I saw them several times again later.
This could be my No. 03 / 201 master productions as between Genesis and this Yes-gig I also
taped Mr. Peter Gabriel on October 13th 1977 at Muenster, Germany, Halle Muensterland,
but there the result was really bad, I threw the tapes away - shit!!
But I shook the hand of Mr. Gabriel as he entered the stage passing through the audience.
And haven't washed mine since then.
..and - don't ever ask me why I didn't take my equipment with me to
The 2nd Golden Summernight-festival at Dortmund on Sunday, August 21st 1977
feat. Ted Nugent (Oh my god!), Stanley Clarke, Uriah Heep, Country Joe McDonald, The Small Faces and
The Doobie Brothers - and don't ever ask me why, but that evening the Doobies were really, really great!
