YES - Seattle Center Coliseum - July 23, 1976


YES: Seattle Center Coliseum-July 23, 1976-1st Gen Tape

1st gen tape>cd-r>Bias Peak Pro 5.2.1>

Here is a rare Yes show from the 1976 tour; this one comes from Seattle. The band put in a fine performance and one person who attended this gig said, "It was a show to remember." (Quote from "Forgotten Yesterdays" website)

This comes from a 1st gen tape. I'd rate this VG sound quality. Given that personal sound ratings are always subjective, two audio samples are provided so that you can hear and rate for yourself.

A number of collectors seem to have only a ten-minute clip of this concert. The actual setlist for this show differs from inaccurate setlists posted at various other sites (since they didn't actually have a more complete copy of this show, they could only guess). As you'll hear for yourself, the setlist here is accurate and in correct running order. Anderson says at the beginning of the third song, "To Be Over," that it's good to be back in Seattle. As the show is only 93 minutes, I believe that several numbers after "And You & I" are missing, i.e., "Roundabout." Enjoy!
