- This is my first attempt at a home-made video so I hope you like it. The audio is from an extraordinary concert recorded in 1973 at De Lane Lea Studio in London. The video are various pictures from the era.
Please let me know if you like this. I'll post more of this concert if anyone is interested. - Hudba

She is the best vocalist I have ever heard. The notes she hits are just so perfect. You can tell in her voice that she is extreamly passionate about her singing as well. What an amazing and underestimated band.
I have LOTS of old concert recordings by Renaissance (including the rest of this concert). I'll do my best to post the highlights.
Let you know if I like it? I LIKE it! I accidently tripped across Renaissance when I saw a cassette tape of Novella on clearance at a record store in 1979. I still have that tape somewhere. Have recently picked up several vinyl albums of theirs. Annie's voice is heaven, as is the music. Thanks for the great upload.
to 2old2rock: thanks for the info, i'll be sure to keep an eye out for the dvd and thanks for the memories...i live on the west coast and altho i've asked over the yrs, i've never found anybody who had even heard of renaissance...i looked them up on youtube on a whim and,as you know, was totally and pleasantly surprised...thanks again...
Thank you for the amazing video. Took me back to back to a good day.
...how amazing...haven't heard this song since 1975...put a huge smile on my face and now you say they're going on tour...the internet is a wonderful thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a great share journal245 !!! love the song and video !!!!
wow! what a great collection!!! i could listen all day.............but remember~ we are never too old to rock! lol
peace.
@JohnLnyc ...I was at the same concert......was an unforgettable night! Two incredible voices in one evening...Sandy Denny (RIP) and Annie Haslam. Going to see Renaissance tonight in NYC...
Live at Carnagie Hall was the best concert i have ever seen with the orchestra,
amazing vesrion of Ashes closed the show
Brings back so very many memories of mildly misspent youth!
Thanks for the complement. I love turning people on to this band. Very underrated!
I saw them at The Academy of Music. 5/17/74. Opening act, Fairport Convention.(with the late great Sandy Denny)
Renaisance were backed by a 24 piece orchestra. Andy Powell (Wishbone Ash) performed the guitar solo on "Ashes are Burning."
My second row seat (I still have the program and tkt stub) cost $6.00. One of the most incredible evenings of my life.
Later to be renamed The Palladuim. A great venue saw The Kinks on The Misfits tour there $8
Ah, please do, looking forward to those. Footage and recordings from this band is terribly rare :(, especially there's hardly any prior to the Carnegie Hall concert.
I never heard of this group but they sound pretty good. Many thanks for posting and I'd love to hear more.
Great Song! Thanks journal & 2old2rock...Anita...
This must be the earliest available recording of Annie-era Renaissance. I'd love to hear the whole show (stuff from "asshes.." and "Prologue", I assume). Thanks for the upload!
Yeah, I got you. Audio boots are fine, any concert material would be great, having never seen them live, born too late! I am tens of thousands of miles away from where they will be touring so here goes my chance. :( Speaking of which, checked out the DVD? Yeah, hope there will be videos from the upcoming concerts!
The days when.music was organic. A great vocalist great musicians no artifice or technical gimmickry.
What a great early version, many thanks!
well wrought, mate
Nice, real nice.
@96camel1 They just finished their 2011 tour and I have to say they were as good as I've ever heard them (and I first saw them live in 1974). They are releasing one of the shows on DVD in time for Christmas. Glad you enjoyed the video.
TRES Cool!!!
Just to clarify, I don't have any video just audio boots. Having been to several of their concerts in their prime, it's heartbreaking that almost no video of them exists. However, I am beyond stoked that I'll be seeing them live on their reunion tour next week. My first Renaissance concert in over 30 years! Hopefully some clips of those shows will show up!
very good to first time
I just bought a ticket for their New Fall 2011 Tour ! It starts in New England in September. How lucky am I to not have to drive to Pennsylvania just to see Annie!?!
Some New bandmembers, but they are supposedly excellent. I'll let ya' know.
Voted Most Likely to Raise a Chill.
@JohnLnyc I was there too! Luckily that show was broadcast by WNEW-FM and I found an excellent copy of it. Absolutely one of the highlights of all the concerts I've attended.
Yes. A memorable show. Andy Powell’s guitar solo over “Ashes are Burning” had me in tears. Annie’s voice was a miracle. She just soared over the music.
great
Nice pics, surprisingly good audio for a bootleg (isn't it?) and terrific performance! Got any more recordings from this concert or any other concerts from that era of this band, 2old2rock? Would love to hear those. Thanks a mill!
@sword1777
Perfect!
@2old2Rock Where did U find a copy of it I'ed like one
@jeannebug1 For some reason, Annie generally sings most if not all tracks of Ashes Are Burning album better live. Progressiveman uploaded a rare live version of Let It Grow from 1975. Listen to it, again, blows away the studio version. Ashes are Burning title track of course became fertile ground for many a guitar solo 'played' by Annie. :)
Wow
Where's you find the copy of that performance?
Seraphins and Cherabims beware. Annie's angel voice will silence you!!!
I think her voice actually sounds better in this live track than on the original recording!
This rock-band is V Good, and Annie has a beautiful Voice.
Is there John Wetton, bass guitar?
Nice!
Come along with me
Down into the world of seeing
Come and you'll be free
Take the time to find the feeling
See everything on it's own
And you'll find you know the way
And you'll know the things you're shown
Owe everything to the day
[Chorus:]
See the carpet of the sun
The green grass soft and sweet
Sands upon the shores of time
Of oceans mountains deep
Part of the world that you live in
Thank you for posting
I really appreciate it ❤️
Jon Camp is the bassist. He's closer to Chris Squire in style than Wetton.
