Banks was a geat guitarist and excellent vocalist. This was their best harmony lineup
I am unbelievably glad this exists! What a band! They look like bunch of kids keeping this together. Tony’s & Peter’s coolest filmed show that I’ve ever seen! They are tearing it up! A rhythm section of Fish and Bruford! That lead singer, not half bad! Lol.
I would love to be there when they were putting this stuff together.
This really is proto-prog. It
has me joyous tears.
They were rocking during this era!
RIP Chris Squire and Peter Banks ❤️
I can't believe Little Billy Bruford! just drumming away, just as happy as He can be... my God! He was Born to Drum!🥁!
And He makes it look soooo easy.🤦
I am impressed by how amazing he was already... Musically speaking, I think he was one step forward. Even later... His works are all great.
Bill Bruford is a talented Man who naturally was just as talented as Little Billy Bruford. Besides, he's probably in his 20's here. He was already a seasoned pro by this time playing wise. Talent like that is apparent early on. Just listen to the rest of the band. They're all seasoned pros at a young age.
Exciting punk rock band. Hope they go far and onto great success.
Punk rock? Lol.
Banks going full Townsend
@@mikereiss4216 obviously a joke but why should anyone expect you to get that.
They went on to release many critically acclaimed punk albums such as "Tormato" "Big Generator", and "Fly From Here". Punk forever!! 🤘🤘
Tight
There was something special about this line up.....
Peter Banks was really a great guitarist....he didn't do the fancy stuff like clap or mood for a day....but his innovative style was perfect for early Yes.
I grew up knowing the Yessongs line up...and later I learned about the original line up......I immediately recognized the Jon Anderson and Chris Squire chemistry however, it seemed strange to hear them with these musicians who were unknown to me....
.but I quickly learned to appreciate them...... today, I feel that they are just as good as any other Yes line ups....
After all, it was Jon's compositions, singing and Chris's compositions and distinctive bass...that was the Yes formula...
great from the beginning.
That's my opinion and I welcome yours.
Peter was a hell of a guitar player. No disrespect to Steve Howe. Both epic players in their own ways. Banks gave them a harder sound that I actually prefer.... This band in classic original and classic line ups, is my favorite band. Now that Chris is gone and Jon A. Is here and there...there is no need to further tarnish this band’s legacy and impact on the history of popular music by continuing to play. Rest In Peace Chris and Peter.
I've recently got some instrumental improv-rock that Peter Banks recorded in 2005-2007. It's a band project called Harmony in Diversity. There's a CD set that compiles it on 6 discs. Really interesting stuff that shows Peter was still developing and progressing, even towards the end of his life.
Steve Howe added different playing styles to the band, but they definitely lost a degree of spontaneity and energy after banks.
Mouhahahaha. Steve Howe give the way to Yes. Banks have no ideas and Anderson have to show him how to write music. Same with Tony Kaye. Those guys were very good musicians but not as at same level than Steve Howe or Rick Wakeman. And I largely, without disrespect for Kaye or Banks, prefer the sound & playing of Howe and Wakeman. No comparison possible.
These guys knew each other, and it is my presumption they were friends.
Here in 2023, Chris and Alan passed away, Jon Anderson no longer in the group, Steve Howe & keyboardist Geoff Downes leading a new line-up. (Alan trained the present new drummer, before passing away). They are nothing like the Yes we knew in the 70s, 80s, 90s, & early 2000s. But look at these guys in 1969. How could they have known that they would become ICONs of rock music, and endure so long? Still the most imaginative band in rock history. Hard to believe they are elderly. We'll give the new line-up their chance. I'm glad there is still a YES band to keep playing this unique kind of music. Singer-songwriter Anna Graceman, present age 23, is one of the very few of the millennial generation who have any real talent. They definitely need a YES.
@@gaelsebastiani2198 You may want to listen to the things Banks did after Yes. You might change your mind about Banks having no ideas.
What a treasure this footage is. Thank you for sharing.
I'm most surprised by how youthful Bruford sounds here. This is some amazing early concert footage. I liked their early period, but they rarely reference this period, so with that said, this is a nice find. Three of my all-time favorite musicians are performing in this clip, enough said!
Where the heck has this been locked up all these years ?
Couldn't help but smile thru the entire thing thinking I'd seen
everything by these guys . How cool to see some ' new ' stuff .
Gotta say some of the camerawork is better than some of
the productions with more money behind them
this takes me right back to when i ist saw them,in fact i saw them at cream farewell november 68,and got to be a part time roadie with them soon after this.
I saw them 1st time for free at Parliament Hill Fields, London in 1969. IMO, (and this won't be popular with most Yes fans) this was when they were fresh, exciting and excellent - before they became unexciting and boring from CTTE onwards. Sacrilege, I know 😮
Wooow! Yes really was amazing on stage in those days. Raw excitement. Never seen this, so thanks for sharing... It really is something.
Incredibly rare . This bar band was about to make history .
They were nutty in those days wow. It's like a punk rock level of energy but with poppy/psychedelic songs. Also funny to see Peter Banks imitating the stage stunts of all his contemporaries. He did some Townshend and Hendrix moves.
Jon's voice has not changed since this 1969 performance....today we are in 2022....wow I don't know how he does it
None of his contemporaries voices sound thr same
...go Jon!!
Steve Winwood stills sounds great, too.
They get vitamins from a strange, short and stout man from Tavistock😏! Both Jon and Steven are superhuman. Oh, and Rick Wakeman, the fabulous new, young piano player he is strong, uh, stuff.
I can't imagine Steve Howe on his back with his legs in the air playing guitar LOL
Before Steve Howe
Maybe someone can find some footage of Steve playing with Tomorrow.
All we need now is a time machine. I wanna go straight into the audience at this gig.
We are lucky to have this kind of gem. Brilliant.
There's another gem to be marvelled on youtube - The Yes performance 1969 for the Beatclub in Bremen, Germany
Just realized how much Peter Banks looked like Peter Frampton. Also, Tony Kaye looked like Robin Gibb with good teeth.
Brilliant and rare footage!
BILL brufords drumming is awesome.
Indeed
Most definitely.
Banks was killing on that Ricky guitar...different band with Banks and Kaye...harder attack
I always liked the first album, and very much like Peter Bank’s guitar playing. This footage is particularly frenetic compared to some of the others I have seen.
Totally brilliant. One of the best pieces of concert footage I’ve ever seen. Incredible energy and talent.
Jon Anderson seems particularly ‘relaxed’.
✌️
Just a week after Woodstock.
Wow! So happy to this early live recording of my favorite band. So raw and real and talent in abundance! Pete Banks looks like he’s Pete Townshend!
From this to Relayer in just five years. They are the premier prog band.
Wow!! They sound like the Who! Bruford smashing his drums like Keith Moon on that first song. Then, on second song he does stuff Keith could never dream of doing. They were going nuts!
I was expecting Peter Banks to start smashing his guitar by the end of the last tune lol
This is spot on. Early yes had an aggressiveness that the classic band never had. Love both
Great call! Such an obvious Who influence on that first song. Bruford’s energy was so Moon-like.
Then I was expecting Tony Kaye to stab a knife into the organ.
Bruford hated Moon when he first joined! Bruford was a jazzer, and a mighty fine one at that. It was inevitable that his “sophisticated” jazz style would clash with Moon’s bombastic playing. But as he played with Yes more and more, he warmed up to Moon’s playing style and began to respect him. Yes were a rock band, not a jazz band. Too jazz for rock and too rock for jazz, Bruford would say. He made a mighty fine fusion drummer of you ask me!
I like this so much, I have to post twice. They killed it on this. Even despite Jon Anderson looking fairly lit, lolz!!
I really love this incarnation of the band... raw and edgy.
Peter Banks and Chris Squire RIP
Bill Bruford is 20 yrs. old here, Jon Anderson is 25, Chris Squire is 21..Amazing how different all their
voices sounded back then, very heavy British accents that later changed as they traveled around the world more.
The Bruford being 20 really bothers the shit out of me .... It's a personal thing...... ruclips.net/video/GEWMitM90Zc/видео.html
wow. earliest footage I've seen. so. cool.
Wow! Peter Banks! Love it!
Never seen this version. Thanks for posting.
The interview is great... well done Bill.
Man, thanks for posting. I've been a fan for over 50 years, and this is the earliest video I've seen. Peter Banks put on quite the show! The all did!
I've downloaded this. Not many live shots of Bruford and Banks together. Good to see Chris having fun. Brilliant bassist
Bruford seemed to be having the time of his life here. It just warms my heart (49 years, 30 of them being a Yeshead) to see this early encarnation if Yes, they all so young, so full of hope, so untarnished by future events and inner fights and, well, you know, the in and out and egos and shit...
This is a glorious peace of history.
Wow/never saw anything live by them with Banks- great clip !!!###
This is the real YES
One of the best music groups ever, great music and look at them here... just kids! Brilliant stuff.
What an awesome band, @billbruford rules, amazing!
Excellent!! Awesome!! Thanks for the post. This is amazingly raw and energetic...the kind of pure rock that prog was accused of not being, and this pretty much kills that idea. Still slightly prefer Steve Howe's style on guitar, but Peter Banks deserves a big tip of the hat for what he brought to the band in the early days (and that's ignoring Banks' MUCH better backing vocals). There's a level of "rocking" energy there live, that I don't think I've ever seen with Howe.
Yes vitamins no smoking 2bed at ten rise with the sun I guess, aah and Peter Banks, was he a brother of that Genesis keyboarder Tony Banks, well I dunno hi5
Everyone look so young here! They were kicking some asses to ashes 😂😂😂😂😂 💖💖💖💖
This footage may very well embody the perfect hybrid between sheer spit to your face raw punk and fresh proto prog virtuosity. Pre Punk Prog, maybe?
Banks is glorious here. And Bruford is fucking having the time of his life.
Incredible musicians, in his very early twenties, with all the energy supposed... What a gem of a video!
Yup. The best video I've seen of Yes for years - what an undiscovered Gem. And somehow conveys something that other vids don't - in the Yes musical 'cultural' sense - probably just that this footage crystallizes what Yes has always been about (and they're already spouting about it in this footage). Wow.
One Leonard Bernstein's composition turned into a "PUNKGRESSIVE" raw, hard, cohesive thing.
Banks and Kaye served this sound better than Howe and Wakeman
Pete Banks godfather of alternative rock.
Gracias x este gran recuerdo
Banks really good!
Great stuff. I especially enjoyed the interview afterwards. I’d not seen/heard an interview with the whole (first) band.
BRILLIANT cameraman - brought it all back to me when I was in the front row many times at the Marquee! Bravo!!!!!
Exactly - this is how Yes really were live in the early days at the Marquee - harmonies were electrifying - Tony Kayes Hammond was fantastic
0:27 Day tripper
Nice 😀
My mom and dad met in Weisbadan.
In the 50s.
Steve needed to ask politely whether the band was going to be playing mainly own material or covers.
Good to see Peter Banks in his heyday, a very talented rock guitarist!
YES is awesome!
Love Peter Banks ❤❤❤❤
Totally rad!
Jon Anderson is a gift from God to us alll!
This was cool to see.
Peter and Tony!
Treasured piece of history.
A bridge between Prog, The Who, and Punk. Would have loved to have been there front and center! And, this was about a week after Woodstock.
This style of music was normal back then and way before the punk movement.
Wow!
"preaching and teaching"- BB
Classic YES..Peter Banks does a great job here, Steve Howe was a technically better guitar player, but
Peter holds his ground in this footage and is very entertaining. Bill Bruford shows he is a bit part of
the YES sound with his amazing band leading and drumming...Great early YES footage...!!
good comment RR, BB fans want big not bit tho
Wow, Jon lost his place in the song, very early on, during 'Every Little Thing'.
You normally don't see members of Yes stumble often at all. In fact, it happens twice in the same song !!
Roh rell, Raggy.....
🚬😎
Interesting that that guy who came up with the name Yes was the first to be fired (or left in a bad relationship with Jon).
Fired. By Jon.
It's interesting how Bill had already sussed out that America would be a better market for a band like Yes than the UK.
But this is Germany?????
@@arnesaknussemm2427 Reference to Atlantic Records' (New York City) deal with Ahmet and Nesuhi Ertegün.
You could really tell all of the potential that would soon catapult them into rock history, playing to massive audiences around the world....
A real progressive blues band!.. (The interview is something astonishing and adorable at the most extreme possible level!)
Love the interview with the band afterwards. ....very interesting comments from all of the band members.....Awesome
Yes..in Wiesbaden Germany. . Klasse
This sometimes makes me think I wish Steve he’ll never join the band to see what could happen
I read so many comments about the punk feeling here, together with the prog vein too... (Yes, some of them written by me😁) Just remember the year of this recording. It was FUCKING 1969. The Beatles were alive yet, and Hendrix, Joplin and Morrison.
Armstrong and his peers were yet to their moon landing, or had just done it short before or after this.
Shows us just how visionary and how geniuses this fellas were, them...
This is an unvaluable peace of recorded cultural history, dude...
You silly mutts compare everything to punk this isn’t punk it’s just rock music why don’t you go away
Wow... Banks was great 🧡
Bill Bruford talks about not "a preaching and a teaching", and Jon sings about "the preacher and the teacher" many years later. Did Bill's statement stick in his mind all those years? Did either recall this interview when they were recording/playing it?
❤ Chris ❤
Every little thing....far better than the beatles original.
In three years Chris and John will be the only two left of the original band. Bruford left July 1972.
Peter Banks (R.I.P.) was the first member of the original Yes lineup to quit - he obviously did not like the strings added to the Richie Havens cover featured on TIME AND A WORD (1970) at all. The entire promo videos had been recorded with Steve Howe already.
Tony Kaye left after the YES ALBUM (1970), the album which provided the breakthru (peaking at #4 in England). I cannot decide if it was Tony's own decision to leave or if he had been fired because the others wanted Rick Wakeman on board of Yes.
Bill Bruford quit because he thought the famous CLOSE TO THE EDGE album was his highlight with Yes. Unfortunately, he went after the first shows recorded for YESSONGS. After his departure, Bill collaborated with King Crimson and their bandleader Robert Fripp.
And since Chris died, there is tribute band called Yes that has none of the original guys left.
Oh Bill, you spoil us with your big words!
What is it with these 60s cameramen? Every time there’s a guitar solo they film the drummer or the singer. It’s like they don’t know what instrument is making what sound.
Pretty sure they didn't know the songs. It's like the cameraman would be focused on Peter, then Tony would start playing something. 10 seconds later, he switches to Tony, then Peter starts playing something. After a bit of back and forth, the cameraman says f--k it and switches to the drums. 😅
And yet they went onto make Awaken
Does anybody remember laughte.....musi.....talent?!
JeesYes!
Cool
Anderson baffled by the interviewer's accent at 13.00, but then I imagine it might have been mutual
magnifique ! Bernstein covered by Yes what else ?
Squire & Bruford were the best rhythm section in rock history. Together with Jon Anderson they were the core of Yes.
I guess making a couple of changes in personal makes a difference. Damn.
I had now idea that Steve Howe used to go all out Pete Townsend! Crazy. He has been so reserved in recent decades.
That's Peter Banks on guitar. Steve Howe wasn't a member of Yes on their first two albums, released in '69 and '70.
Mr. Howe was definitely not an original member of this band.
“Yarggggh!” - Bill Bruford (at 8:39)
“Yoah!” - Bill Bruford, “Fracture” by King Crimson
There's me lads
A treasure
"Preaching and teaching..." Bruford dixit. Doesn't ring you any bells?
With the Marshall amps and organ they were more like deep purple back then.
Punkadelic! Crowd got their money's worth.
John Anderson and Chris Squire (RIP) were brooding in the background letting the others do the talking
I wonder were they plotting to get rid of Tony and Peter (RIP) then?
Bill Bruford had the last laugh, he left for King Crimson.
I understood their lyrics then but later they were so pretentious .
I still have their first album on cassette 😂🎶👌
BB had to sign over all of his CTTE royalties to get out. Cost him a fortune. Hardly last laugh.
Egos! The death of many a great group…
Oh my this is way to frantic
Bruford should have set up back stage
"Preaching and teaching": three years later Bruford's statement has been used as a title for the third section of "And You And I", plus, I ascertain how Yes appreciated a lot the Germany neatness (including, I guess, their public transport).
