"Alive and Kicking"
35th Anniversary Edition

Sources: copies of audience recording -> Sound Forge -> FLAC

This is a great recording of Yes on the Tales from Topographic Oceans tour. The performance is second to none.

The first edition of "Alive and Kicking" was circulated in 2002. Since then, I acquired Relayerman's cassette copies of this show. Relayerman's tape of the first part of the show, which includes the tracks from Close to the Edge, the Firebird Suite, and Roundabout, are superior to any other copies I have in my collection, so I used that part of his tape in this edition. But because Relayerman's tapes have some serious issues during the four tracks from Tales, I went back to the 2002 version and made improvements to their sound quality.

Overall, this is the best-sounding version of this show you'll find. Still, if you have pristine recordings of the Tales tracks from this show, please let me know. I'm always up for making improvements.
