Did Go Through This on the drama tour go through a similar change as fly from here?

[Rabin105]

Something occurred to me long before Fly From Here was even possibly going to be redone everyone said how on the drama tour Fly from here went through a change on the road with bits and peices added here and there, the main thing being Steve adding steel guitar toward the end which made it into the 2011 version, the same has been said for Aliens in 2008 (Alan added more of a drum part on later shows) and show me in 2002 (rick added some piano bits on later shows).


So did go through this go through a similar change did it get more complex as the tour progressed?



Does anyone have a later recording so i can hear the changes?

They added a different intro on the UK leg. I have two performances, this is the better sounded one and a**hole audience free.

This version does have the potential to become something more Yes Album like (just let Trevor Horn try to kill off the drums on that one!). You've almost converted me to the idea of reworking it for the next album. I'm just not sure how Jon D would sound on it, but I suppose he could bring another dimension to it again, taking it even closer to the Yes sound and making it a bit less thrashy and perhaps adding a slower, more melodic middle section. In any case he would be far better than the totally out of tune vocal train wreck on this live recording. Honestly, people had a go at Benoit's live work, but TH was truly awful on that one.

I think Davison would just elevate it to another level.

I love that soaring end. the song sounds so much better then the New York version. Listened to it 6 times in a row lol.

I think Trev's vocals are fine considering how shot they would become over the course of the UK tour. His vocals for Leicester show are more husky than on the US leg but still listenable. People did have a go at Benoit but as far as I know Benoit didn't have a Scottish audience member scream "F*ck off!" at him or the audience constantly calling out Anderson or Wakeman.
Can you really fault Trevor? The only live performances he did prior to Yes was being in a pub band in the mid 70s and now he was singing night after night high register songs to sold out crowds.

You're welcome =)
And as a bonus: two tracks that differed from the US leg.
First in Geoff's Man in a White Car Suite. While remain mostly the same on the UK during the VKTRS section Trevor sang the line "Video Killed the Radio Star, pictures came and broke your heart." On the US leg this verse was left out.
And secondly during the last half of the UK tour after Roundabout the group assembled at the front of the stage to sing an acapella version of White Car. This recording comes from the last show at the Rainbow Theatre with a nice audience compared to other parts of the UK.
