1994 - Philadelphia

Spectrum Arena, Philadelphia, PA, USA
August 26, 1994
Finally we have a show from the Talk tour here. I admit I have never cared much about their last album with Rabin, but when I listened to this show I really understood why so many people say The Endless Dream is an overlooked masterpiece.
And they don't play just this song from Talk, actually 6 of the album's 7 songs are played in this concert, showing the band really thought this material was indeed valuable (compare, for example, with the two new songs they played o
n Open Your Eyes tour).
So Endless Dream was a big surprise to me, I hope it is for you all as well. And Rabin's piano solo also exceeds expectations.

Setlist :

Intro-Perpetual Change
The Calling
I Am Waiting
Rhythm Of Love
Real Love
Changes
Heart Of The Sunrise
Make It Easy
Owner Of A Lonely Heart
Rabin Piano Solo
And You And I
Where Will You Be?
I've Seen All Good People
Walls
Endless Dream
Roundabout
Purple Haze

It's great to have so many good recordings from this tour. The different line-up and new songs really made for some fantastic and unique shows. Wish Yes had played as much of the Keys albums live as they did Talk.

Thanks for posting this. I was at this show. Talk was a great album. Rabin never got the respect he should have amongst Yes fans.

I too was at the show and thought Endless Dream was mindblowing. Unbelievable - not a huge Trevor Rabin fan or fan of the Yes-west time, but this show was incredible. I saw the Union tour in NY in 1991 and was hooked forever, but this show was something special.
