The UK Tales tour was performed on the eve of the release of the Tales From Topographic Oceans album in the UK.
There were a few differences in the UK tour and the subsequent US tour in that several dates only featured 2
songs from the Close To The Edge album and Heart of the Sunrise was played. Midway through the UK tour
Heart was dropped and the entire Close To The Edge album was played. The US tour, for the most part,
stuck to that setlist with a few minor variations such as Rick Wakeman doing a solo segment here and there
and The Remembering being dropped midway through the tour. This show from Sheffield is, so far,
the best sounding show from the UK tour, but sadly the complete show doesn't seem to exist.
Also, this show was held in a 2100 seat hall so it was an intimate setting as can be heard from some of the back
and forth banter between the band and the audience.
