Still the most beautiful song I've ever heard, but it just seems wrong without a fade out. Thanks Guys!

BUT, I've listened to both this and the studio version many times and the latter, in my humble, seems bland by comparison, the live version gives it the lift that, the piece deserves, even enhanced arguably by this version's keyboard disconnection issues and the subsequent reconnection that brings the whole thing back to life. I would happily discuss this all night long with you while painfully admitting that I have never seen the band play live, one of my greatest regrets. Let me know what you think

I love at 5:30 when the deeper keyboard sound at last comes to life (after the keyboard player, while continuing to play perfectly, heroically tried to figure out what wasn't right), and the bass player notices and they sort of celebrate. Awesome!

I live in Argentina, South America, far from everything. Thought Gentle Giant music was only playable in studio, never imagined they could play such a complex song alive. Justice would be that instead of 200 people hearing them, a 200.000 crowd were there. Along with Yes and Genesis (and forgotten Pavlov's Dog) they are in the top of progresive rock.
