Was around when they toured but never got to see them. A huge regret, still have most of their albums, in vinyl but no deck.....

Great choice, another band that couldn't put a foot wrong between Crime Of The Century to Breakfast In America.
Check out the Caribou Ranch where Even In The Quietest Moments was recorded, the cover photo was taken there.
This lady is now 98.

Erm, no, she died in 2017, aged 96.

Superb tin-foil-hattery regarding Breakfast in America:

That's sad news, one of the groups on facebook posted it so they can't be aware.
Conspiracy theorists are the bane of the internet especially Youtube.

There was a version on YouTube many years ago from (I think) Montreal or Toronto, filmed circa ‘83. I’d go so far as to say that it tops even the Paris performance. I managed to snatch a copy at the time - sadly this was in a format on my old PC that no longer plays on my current Mac. Needless to say, the YouTube vid is long gone now - Hodgson (or his management) seems fairly notorious for blocking and removing ST content shortly after its posted.

Download VLC - that'll play it.

I saw them live at Earls Court in about 1983 two days running - They were absolutely superb

Always on my playlists

Hodgeson at the Albert Hall just over a week ago. Magnificent!

The first band I saw live, Brighton Centre, 1977, such a great band.

That was an excellent evening, we went on the Thursday. He was allowed to play the Grand Organ, the lucky bugger!

And of course Fool's Overture was indeed ace.
