  1. Yes
    Going for the One Tour
    Glasgow, Scotland
    1977-11-08

    This is the ONLY KNOWN SOUNDBOARD recording from the Going For The One tour!

    The date 7-7-7 marked the 30th anniversary of the release of Going For The One, reuniting the "Classic Yes Line-up," so I thought it would be fun to seed the shows I have in my collection on or near the dates of their 30th anniversaries.

    Video soundtrack, thought to be soundboard
    Lineage: SOUNDBOARD -> video tape -> audio CD -> Sound Forge -> FLAC

    This soundtrack was on two CD's. Each CD contained one continuous track. All I did was break them up by track, sector aligned them, and converted the WAV files to mono to reduce the size of the torrent. The original recording is mono, so nothing was lost here. Buzz, hum, speed variations, and drunken Scotsmen abound. Have fun with it, if you're inclined to try to improve it or just enjoy a certain amount of masochism.

    Hopefully the video will be seeded. I thought I had a copy, but no such luck. I have seen the video - it's all shot from a single camera and a bit boring, but it's a document of what people saw on the tour, and for that it stands as an important artifact. There are color and B&W versions of the video. This soundtrack comes from a color version.

  2. Well, this is a really nice show but there certainly are a lot of AUDs from the tour that are better than this B+ SBD (with many tape speed problems). No offense to the great man Dr. F who can only share what is out there. You don't have to be a completist to enjoy this show but you certainly shouldn't be a novice either. Thanks Doc!
