A questions about the Genesis title: http://www.genesis-movement.org/ lists another boot being from the same date – the rehearsals for the reunion concert for charity on Oct 2nd. Is it possible that they reheased for that show in the same day of this concert?

I think “Yes Progressive Pop Festival 1970″ will be the best YES boot to be released in 2012. I already listened to the newly discovered tape. It sounds so much better than the old Highland release. Virtuoso uses the new Mastertape plus a remastered version of that Mastertape as bonus. This is a “must have” for YES collectors.

Some interesting issues are raised in the comments. I’ve not heard the new Pink Floyd Knebworth tape, but I’ve been told it’s superior to the older tape found on Sigma 20. I should have a review of this (as well as the Chicago and the other three released last month) next week.

DLee is correct. The new Knebworth tape is missing the first half. And, I was joking about Sigma listening to Charlie’s plea for a re-release of the show. I think it’s coincidence. I do not think Sigma read this site.

And finally, there aren’t any plans to review the Stones Get Your Leeds Lungs Out on Goldplate at the current time. (Except perhaps if donations were to come in to cover the cost…)

How did that happen? I’ve strongly suggested the release of the Floyd at Boeblingen, Germany 1972-11-15 show at least a few times in the past over the last few years, but apparently no label has ever seriously listened.

Also, it’s important to note that the Floyd at Knebworth 1975-07-05 show has only DSotM (Disc 1) & the ‘Echoes’ encore (Disc 2).

Also, is there going to be any review here posted for the recently-released Goldplate label’s 2CD version of the Stones “Get Your Leeds Lungs Out”?

Can anyone tell what title was Sigma 76? Has it yet been released, albeit out of sequence, like Knebworth 1975 New Master?

Definitely curious about both those Pink FLoyd releases … Anybody heard that Knebworth release? Is it worth getting?
