This is my first attempt at a home-made video so I hope you like it. The audio is from an extraordinary concert recorded in 1973 at De Lane Lea Studio in London. The video are various pictures from the era.

Please let me know if you like this. I'll post more of this concert if anyone is interested.

  • ...how amazing...haven't heard this song since 1975...put a huge smile on my face and now you say they're going on tour...the internet is a wonderful thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @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.

  • 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!
