(After)thoughts on Tsongas...

[RABARKS]

With so many of you being so enthousiastic about this DVD, I thought I'd give it a look and listen.

I have to say I'm not that crazy about it. YesAcoustic, which can be bought very cheap, is a good summary of the highlights. Though it's fun watching classic Yes do Rhythm Of Love, including Jon's five minutes of Showmanship, this does not urge me to buy it.

Steve's accoustic solo is nice, not the usual Mood For A Day or Clap. But on most other songs he's mixed terribly low, like he's almost gone completely.
Funny how the songs seem to depend upon a driving guitarsound.

No, thank you, I'm quite happy with YesYears, SLO, Symphonic and Acoustic.

I like Tsongas, but I can only watch bits & pieces at a time. On one hand, it's great to have some rarities & different arrangements all on one DVD.....but as a whole, the pacing of the material makes it difficult for me to get through in one sitting. Still a nice addition for my collection (of course), but overall it doesn't get as much viewing time as my other Yes DVDs.......

I love Tsongas - it's a valued member of my Yes-DVD collection.

Well I just played it today - heard but not seen since my TV's died. I still love it!

I just recently purchased this DVD
and I love it.
I was a wee bit disappointed when "And You and I"
was not on the acoustic set,but,other than than that
I think it was a great concert DVD
Some brilliant renditions of songs and even a wee bit
of "Olias".
All in all well chuffed with this purchase.

I'll have to give it a try someday in the near future
