I've had the honor to know and jam with Peter Banks back in the late 70's,in my opinion the best and most overlooked guitarist that Yes has had!!!

That one person who disliked this video must've had butter smothered on the mouse! Best cover of a Richie Havens song I've ever heard.

Always love the old Yes footage... when they were young, before drugs and drink impaired, and they didn't despise one another. LOVE this!!

WAKE UP AND BE! Always a fantastic spiritual message...

@fatlizzard I like Peter Banks more than Steve Howe or Trevor Rabin..... I grew up during Trevor Rabin in Yes but I have collected and listened to classic Yes and I think Banks was way better than Howe or Rabin.

I'm always amazed when I listen to Banks-era Yes and can hear a number of similarities in style with Howe.

One of my favorite albums is the "Millineum (sp) Collection"

with old 1967-69 recordings of BBC sessions -- this is one of the songs on this live album--which does have also produced singles and memories of radio broadcasters introducing Yes for the first time...

Also on the album are Somethings Coming, a Beatles song and a Stephen Stills song-wildly good versions

[stevensondavid096]

I've lost count -- but I think I saw them 5 times and each time was whoa---they are so mindbendingly talented. You just can't believe it--a friend cries its so good live.

[stevensondavid096]

I love this version--Yes can do anything and wow make u feel so good.

I'm a Steve Howe fanatic & guitarist and always appreciated Peter Banks. I just saw Jon & Rick in Atlantic City last night; and I think he is really irreplaceable in Yes and didn't see the group called "Yes" with Benoit.

@cremesupreme OTSWOF, Heart fo the Sunrise and Tempus Fugit are the best bass riffs if you ask me.

@drj602 This alongside two unreleased songs from this session (and a lot of other gems) has been released on Voiceprint's "The Lost Broadcast". It has footage of Bill headtotoe on the other two tracks. Especially Survival. User "devoutyesfan" has uploaded it alongside almost all Yes DVDs in full HD!
