    I've never seen this before - Yes interview/video from 1969. Features "Every Little Thing" and "Something's Coming".

    Here's a slightly different version with the complete "Something's Coming" and the interview at the end.

    Excellent thanks, the first Angel of the North was / is from Accrington, just saying :)

    And what an outstanding debut (YES), remember looking over to a friend as we were both a little under the influence and asking what next? The reply was “YES” = Perfect.

    BBC Recordings ‘Something’s Coming’ but we are still waiting, as someone mentioned better sound quality is out there, somewhere.

    This made me sad for Pete. No one enjoys a knife in the back.

    Pete was very good. Too bad things went wrong. EVERY LITTLE THING is excellent.

    Thanks - that was great. Any vintage Yes is welcome. It was cool to see Banks in action - he brought a lot of energy to the stage. I love their first two albums.

    Peter Banks was such a showman on stage! Please check out the albums by his band Flash. They are awesome.

    Fantastic to see more footage from the original Yes lineup - there's not much out there. The edits in "Every Little Thing" are kind of odd, and the camera operator seems to lurch around like the camera is too heavy, but it's a fun video.

    I like that Bill seems kind of aggressive towards the interviewer. Towards the end of his involvement and in a lot of years afterwards, he always seemed kind of detached and even somewhat derogatory towards Yes at times. Here he seems very involved, proud of the group and almost take charge. More of a founder (which he was) and less of a defector. Cool!

    For all their talk of cosmic positivity, the internal politics of Yes could be surprisingly cutthroat. Banks was the first but certainly not the last. . .
