Right now I'm just reviewing disc 1 on this. I rented it from Blockbuster online and they stupidly sent me just the 1st disc!
Anyway, the photography and sound is absolutely stellar quality here. Although I can do without the song title subtitles that popup. Roger Dean's stage setup is as imaginative as ever. But I have to say these guys are really starting to show their age here. The energy from their past live performances is seriously lacking. The last song on this disc is Yours Is No Disgrace which is usually a rip-roaring, high-octane show-stopper and ends up almost on a Muzac level here. But the real gem here is Southside Of The Sky midway through, a song they never did live. Steve and Rick do some serious interplay on this one. The rest is pretty much the usual filler with some of the newer material.
That's all I'm going to say for now 'til I get the 2nd disc unless somebody else has seen the whole thing and can put in his 2 cents.

Can't wait to hear it myself. In particular South Side, one of my all time favs.

I own the Keys to Ascension and Yessymphonic DVD's, and this beats out
both. The setlist is excellent, the performance is fantastic, and
Jon's voice sounds as good as it did in 1972.
I LOVE MIND DRIVE
