Below are the comments from the dime web site.I will add that on disc 1Justin's vocals are low in the mix and there's seems to be a skip(lptype?)during the Voyage along with a few performance cliches on thattrack.But yes the Mellotron is out there!

I don't recall ever seeing any Moody Blues shows on Dime from the1973/74
"farewell" tour, so here is one:

This is a very good audience recording of one of the last performanceswith
Mike Pinder. His mellotron is very prominent throughout the show. The
performance is excellent, with tracks from each of the "classic seven"albums.
I don't know the exact date and venue, but based on the band'scomments, they
are in Japan. They played several dates in Japan in January 1974.

It's an audience recording, but seeing that "his mellotron is veryprominent
throughout the show", I figured I'd pass this on....
