I wanted to share another Close To The Edge tour show so I looked thru my tapes and found this gem. While its not a complete show (some songs are missing and there is no crowd noise between songs) and the sound quality is about a B+, I chose it because of a few features which fans will find interesting:
a. during Siberian Khatru Steve Howe's pedal steel doesn't work so we get to hear his steel solo on regular guitar
b. also during Siberian Khatru Rick's mellotron sound for strings is not used during one section and we get to hear the choir sound instead; and later on he uses the organ instead of the mellotron until finally, I guess, it gets fixed during the end section.
c. the band loses the PA during I've Seen All Good People except for the bass which continues on like nothing ever happened; the PA comes back on and the the band picks up awkwardly and starts the song over.
d. Rick's solo spot pretty much mirrors the Yessongs version, but he adds Cans And Brahms in the middle

NOTE: there is a Highland boot of this show which I have not heard, but it claims to be the complete show. If someone has the complete show I would be much obliged if they would contact me. My tape version runs at 71 minutes.
