Yes dropped SSotS early in the Fragile tour when it was new. They felt it was too tricky to coordinate the parts correctly. Fans griped for years online about that after the 'classic lineup' reformed in the late 90s, and Yes eventually included it live, with closing tradeoff solos between Wakeman and Howe.

Dave, about that Things From The Past album you gave away last week. Should be noted Geoff Leigh is in all those bands and put that collection together. I got it after hearing Living In Rotterdam off your 7 inches and a Mule premium.
