Yes! It Can Happen!, October 31, 2011
As a die hard Yes fan I keep my eyes open for anything by this legendary band that has been remastered and even though this has been out of print for what seems like an eternity, I have been lucky enough to own the original Japanese version since it was released over ten years ago. This expanded edition is a must have and contrary to the belief that Japanese versions are superior to domestic releases, it is not true here. This expanded edition has two added songs originally not included that make it well worth the purchase and the remastering job is very noticeable without having to own a thousand dollar stereo system.There is not an expanded booklet,but better looking artwork then the original release. Thank you Yes and Friday music for making this available and also for still making CD's available to us people who still appreciate a real physical product and not subjecting us to mandatory downloads to get great music.

Worth if for Whitefish alone, November 11, 2003
First off, this album only gets 3 stars not so much for what is included on it, but what's missing. The video that was released in connection with this EP included some great Rabin-era Yes versions of I've Seen All Good People and Starship Trooper, both of which are missing from this disc. Also, no proper live versions of Leave It, It Can Happen and City of Love have ever been released (all were also in the video). What is included however ranges from excellent (Chris & Alan's Whitefish solo) from very good (Trevor's Solly's Beard, Tony's Si), to unnecessary (Chris's Amazing Grace, Jon's Soon). The only two band numbers are great, but there's only two. I hope that one day Rhino decides to remaster this one and add some bonus live music from this tour that has yet to see the light of day. Although, Rhino doesn't seem to be touching the live albums, so this may be it for some time. If Whitefish from the Full Circle Tour ever emerges on a disc, that will make this album completely unneccesary. Until then, considering the short running time, and unless you're a true die hard who has to have every album Yes ever did, it's not really worth it, not for an expensive import.

Yes rocks!, December 11, 2011
I had this on an album years ago and when I say it on a CD I jumped on it. These are some incredible musicians I have seen this band 5 times and they never stop amazing me with there talent. This has some of the best solo's of this band if you get this CD you will not be disappointed. Listen to it LOUD!
