What a great find! Bravo! I always wondered what would have happened if Roger Hodgson from Supertramp had teamed up with this AMAAZING group for some sort of collaborative album. It's not too late!

@96camel1 They just finished their 2011 tour and I have to say they were as good as I've ever heard them (and I first saw them live in 1974). They are releasing one of the shows on DVD in time for Christmas. Glad you enjoyed the video.

I saw them at The Academy of Music. 5/17/74. Opening act, Fairport Convention.(with the late great Sandy Denny) Renaisance were backed by a 24 piece orchestra. Andy Powell (Wishbone Ash) performed the guitar solo on "Ashes are Burning."
My second row seat (I still have the program and tkt stub) cost $6.00. One of the most incredible evenings of my life.

@JohnLnyc I was there too! Luckily that show was broadcast by WNEW-FM and I found an excellent copy of it. Absolutely one of the highlights of all the concerts I've attended.
