Lineage: Pre-FM recording -> CDr trade -> FLAC (Xact) -> You


I literally have no specific information on this show. It was a CDr trade some years ago, but is awesomely clean. I've had several versions of this show and the 25th Anniversary recording has been my go to version for a while. What made me revisit this plain 2CDr set was the name scribble on the discs - "Silver Anniversary." I thought that this may just be a play on words, but alas it appears not. This recording is from the notes with the CDrs claim, to be a pre-fm recording from the KBFH. There are three mentions of the KBFH within the show itself - none being over the music. However, it clearly states "from the Los Angeles Forum," which I know is incorrect. Except this show contains Future Times/Rejoice which sounds exactly like the rest of the show. There are several other differences - no BBC or Tommy Vance intros. No BBC or Tommy Vance outros. This show also contains Rick Wakeman's solo, the full version of Awaken and Madrigal which leads directly into On the Silent Wings of Freedom. All super clean recordings like the rest of the show.

Now I'm no audiophile, but I've compared (by listening) all other ROIO SBD/FM versions of Future Times/Rejoice that I have and NONE of them match what is on this recording. Maybe someone else can solve the mystery? The show is from Wembley, but the KBFH clearly states LA Forum. Could Future Times/Rejoice and the other "extras" mentioned above actually be from the LA Forum and mixed into the rest of the Wembley show by the KBFH? I don't know. You be the judge. Until then, enjoy this show for (what appears) to be the first time in its entirety.
