Notes
The book that comes with the set says that tracks CD3-8 to CD5-4 are previously unreleased. HOWEVER, CD 4 and CD 5 are the Live At The Rainbow show, December 16th 1972, and the recording of Starship Trooper that ends the show (CD5-4) IS the exact performance that was used on the 1973 Yessongs album, albeit a different mix that partially obscures the keyboard solo at the end. (Starship Trooper was not played on most of the 1972 shows)

Reviews

The previous SW mix is better that this one.. in song 3 (lack of power just after the introduction and in song 2 voice it’s a bit far in the beginning … -
The source of CD4-3 "Heart Of The Sunrise" is incorrect. It was not recorded Live At The Rainbow, London, England on 16 December, 1972. This fantastic live rendition of Heart Of The Sunrise" was actually recorded at Greensboro Coliseum, Greensboro, North Carolina on 12 November, 1972. -
I have the Japanese version of this, which is identical save for the OBI and some liner notes, and the live album sounds TERRIBLE. Not only is it too hot at times, there seems to be a massive gap in Close to The Edge, like there was an problem with the tape itself or how the tape was transferred? It just STOPS for a second before sounding it like's playing sped up, and then continues as normal. Anyone know what's going on there? I checked the liner notes, there's no mention of the source material having any errors.
