mike oldfields ommadawn was a life atlering moment for me. i listened to it 8 times in one night. each time a different rush. i have literally been changed from there on in. now my 8 year old son, since a young age needs to put it on when he goes to bed. that album is beautiful.

Rick Wakeman's Church Organ on Awaken is fantastic! He's never really quite managed to re-create that sound for live versions.

Well Nightfly, I was 16 and absolutely delighted about Going For The One by a reborn Yes featuring again the Caped Crusader (he and Yes had a Liz Taylor-Richard Burton-like relationship  ) so I decided to visit the GFTO tour in 1977, I remember Awaken as one of the highlights, it's still one extended goose bump moment for me, studio or on stage

That's interesting, when? Phil Manzanera also did a live CD in Cuba a while back...

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Mandrakeroot, I haven't listened to the Cuba DVD by Wakeman because I was told by a Wakeman freak that the recording quality is quite mediocre.
Slartibartfast, is that the local CD record store  .............?

LTIA pt. 1. A great start to a great KC album.
Lamb lies down, piano starting the album out.
ITCOTKC the entire album.
Starship trooper from Yessongs, Howe and Wakeman trading back and forth.

Yes Crimhead, the duelling between Howe on his guitar and Wakeman on his Minimoog synthesizer in the final part of Starship Trooper is mindblowing, one of the highlights in symphonic prog, a few years ago I got goose bumps during the Yes gig in Rotterdam in the classic line-up, old loves die hard

SO MANY!!!
For starters, the guitar solo in "Time" (Pink Floyd)
The climaxes in the slow part of "Question" (Moody Blues)
Any part in Explosions in the Sky's TEINACDP
Radiohead's "Lucky"
Supertramp's "Take the Long Way Home" and "Crime of the Century"
"Phaedra" and the beginning of "Rubycon Pt. 1" (Tangerine Dream)
Yes: "Awaken," anything from CTTE and TFTO, intro to the version of "Heart of the Sunrise" on Yessongs...
And so much more....

Erik, I saw Yes on that tour in 1977 also. in fact it was the first time I saw them and although I've seen them around 10 times now I still have very fond memories of that show at Wemley Empire Pool as one of my favourites.

Nightfly, when you will ever visit Holland near The Hague, I will show you that GFTO tour, the famous Glasgow 1977 bootleg DVD (including Chris Squire his famous triple-neck guitar)
