  1. Used to love Yes and saw them a couple times; Ian Anderson one of the great most unique voices, Steve Howe an awesome staggeringly good guitarist, Squires and White and Wakeman et al did what it says on the tin! Thanks for this Boss! Appreciated

  2. The sound in the YTube link is quite impressive. BBC recordings usually sound very good. Grab this. I have listened so far to Siberian K., and this is veeery good. I would say essential if you are a fan.
