C'mon! These Keys to Ascension, both volumes, deserve a quality VINYL issue. Black Friday, Record Store Day, somebody! C'mon! The fans deserve it! If the 1972 tour can be issued on vinyl, on 21 discs, mind you, then Keys to Ascension should be a no-brainer. C'mon!

This and Keys to Ascension 2 are the only official YES albums never to have been released on LP.... WHAT A SHAME!

This is one of my favourite live albums of any artist. The sound quality is excellent (warm / fullsome with plenty of welly in the bass pedal and synth dept.) The performers are all on top form, the set list is quality and each rendition seems to add a little 'something' to the already extant studio versions. The last two studio tracks of new material is a slightly odd change of vibe but at least they can be easily avoided (as they're stuck at the end!)
