Does anyone have a review of this rare ABWH dvd? I know that four of the live cuts are also on the ABWH "An Evening of.." DVD, which I have. There are 3 other cuts from the ABWH album on the DVD, and I'd like to know from someone who has it, or has seen it, if they're worth buying a copy to get...are they music videos, or "documentary" views of the boys making the music.
Little help here, folks!
Thanks,
Jim

I saw a vhs copy (on loan from a friend) of this a couple of years ago.
It has 3 video clips for the (then) new stuff and Heart of the Sunrise live,
plus footage of the recording sessions in the studio. The best part
is when Bill Bruford says, after recording backing vocals for Order of the Universe,
"This is much better than playing drums!"
Hope this helps.

I consider it a valued piece in my YES collection.

True, four of the songs are from the Mountainview concert, but the film clips of 'Brother of Mine' and 'Quartet' (I'm Alive) are worth the price of the DVD. (IMHO)
Quartet is a slightly different version to the one on the ABWH album.
Interviews are brief, but there are glimpses of the guys playing in the studio and also participating in a game of cricket on a field. (and Rick has a terrible bowling action!)

Actually the official release (on VHS) only has Heart of the Sunrise from Mountain view.
The Brazil rip-off DVD is the one which has 4 songs from Mountain View.
This has never been officially released on DVD.

Find it and buy it. You won't be disappointed.
