I for one hadn't seen this, Chris strumming a familiar looking acoustic in a blend of Your Move and Mood For A Day (?).

The video is out of sync, but I thought it was cool.

Man oh man! He's playing his Rick acoustic to boot! NEVER seen that in action! Thanks for that one!

I've never seen a Rick acoustic like that before. Perhaps he just put a TRC on something else?

This is from the QPR show in 1975 (filmed at Queen's Park Rangers football ground in London). I think it was the BBC that filmed it originally. I have it on DVD on import from Japan. The sound is poor for most of it as Jon Anderson plays guitar on almost everything and it's the loudest thing in the mix. Despite that, it's a great show lasting over 3 hours, featuring the whole of Relayer, as well as Ritual and CTTE. If it had been recorded multitrack (and was remixed) and the footage was released to the band by the Beeb it would make a fantastic official release.

According to John Hall, Chris got a custom Rick acoustic in 1973 or so. Perhaps that's it?

A little trick if the video is going out of sync on youtube is to grab the little "bug" at the bottom and pull it back some, this will reset the audio to the video, for a short while until it goes out of sync again. You end up watching small replays( the number depends on the video length) but I can't stand watching out of sync videos.
