Yes' 35th Anniversary DVD, Songs from Tsongas, is a great collection of a two live sets - One electric and the other acoustic. The latter is by far the most exciting, energizing, and its what makes this 2DVD live show worth a purchase. In addition to some great renditions, there's some great conversation between tracks by Jon Anderson. The first disc is also near-perfect, featuring a great set played with an amazing energy to send chills down the spine of any Yes or prog fan, especially in Mind Drive. Turn Of The Century is also particularly amazing in this recording, and this track really shines live.
The members were all evidently well-rehearsed before this show, and this is visible through their onslaught of brutal renditions and consistent musicianship on both of the sets, which is nothing less than a spectacular show, which any band should be proud of on their 35th Anniversary.
Sonically, this is a fantastic live recording, features good camera angles and great video quality. My only complaint is the occasional use of inappropriate cameras - That is to say, shots of thing which aren't necessary to be shown at the time, for example, during a keyboard solo we have a shot of Steve Howe playing guitar chords… Good none the less, but it seems the cameras are sometimes away from the action, which is a little unsatisfactory. As a backdrop to this live show, we have a great Roger Dean projection show, which is tailor-made to fit every song perfectly, and it does exactly that. This adds massively to the atmosphere of the show.
A great DVD, and compulsory watching for any Yes fan for the live version of Mind Drive alone! ~progarchives
