Note: If you are expecting a quiet, reverent crowd then this recording is not for you. Washington loves its Yes shows and here you are sited right in the middle of an adoring, fully-engaged audience that is clapping, dancing and singing along. For example, at the end of "Mood", Steve had to put his hand up to try to quiet the applause so that he could play the ending grace note. As a recorder I was appalled, but as a fan I enjoyed every minute of the show. I will post some MP3 samples so you can hear before downloading. Due to all the "audience participation" I nearly decided not to upload this, but I was inspired by other posters earlier in the tour and decided to go with this as an accurate reflection of the concert. Besides, it is an historical recording. As Chris wittily explains, this is the first time Fragile has been played in sequence in Washington, DC!

As a binaural recording, this sounds best when listened with headphones. Over speakers it will sound indistinct/muddy.
