Prob not my *favorite*part. I liked where Howe sits w/ his acoustic, about to do TotC's opening, saying he felt like he was sitting in the sun & asked, if he put the pick in his mouth at some point, or took it out, would the mic pick it up? He needed the control room's Ok. That's maybe my favorite part ;-) 'Precious'.
He's "precious" about his gtrs,his music.Never heard anyone using it quite that way til a Gabriel interview, "I'm precious when it comes to making my music.." A mainly Brit. usage?
My bootlegger send me a good deal of this Montreux stuff... but I've heard any of this. ...Don't remember any footage with those drums either.
--Ain't it cool to have your own personal bootlegger? These days sites like youtube are making them all but obselete. Been 7 or more years since we've been in touch.
You don't get asked to be the drummer for a band of the caliber of Yes unless you are good. I don't favor Alan's style over Bruford, especially for Yes, but anyone who can't recognize the quality of Alan's drumming has a low musical I.Q. in terms of ability to evaluate musicians IMO.
don't care what you say, this is fun for me to listen too....this often shows us more than the studio lp or concertts..... Alan white is really amazing here
One of the greatest engines ever in rock. I wish Alan would go back to this kit instead of the big set he uses today. He is a speed drummer and needs to be on top of his set.
Yes those are north drums added into his set. Alan White did play North drums for a few tours many years ago, at one time he even played a jelly bean kit with North drums mixed into that set up. ( jelly bean kit is a term used for a drum set that's made up of multiple colors)
seeing Chris Squire in a bathrobe didn't really make my day.
the North drums did.

It sounds like Chris is using a pitch shifter on his bass here (one octave up). At first I thought it was an organ playing along with him.

White siempre fue muy puro para tocar y buscaba no necesariamente mostrar virtuosismo si no acoplarse a las ideas grupales...

This is really very cool. It gives me an insight as to how Chris and Alan listen to each other.
North drums were really a hit when they first came out.

Like all fun jams, it's often more fun for the players than the listeners!

To be honest, anything beyond the odd Ludwig or Pearl set is beyond me.
