YES - SOMETHING'S COMING: THE BBC RECORDINGS 1969-1970 (IMPORT 180g 2LP)

Yes Something's Coming: The BBC Recordings 1969-1970 On 2x 180g Import LP! 

Yes were formed in summer of 1968 in London by vocalist Jon Anderson and bassist Chris Squire, and with the addition of guitarist Peter Banks, drummer Bill Bruford and organist Tony Kay, the band became official. Their eponymous debut was released the following year, and the vocal harmonies of Anderson and Squire and early progressive sound made them an immediate success. In 1970 the band released their second album, the somewhat less successful A Time And A Word, backed by a full orchestra. During this period the band also made a number of live appearances for BBC radio where, given the freedom of a less formal setting, the performances have a more spontaneous, less structured sound than on many of their studio recordings from the same period. Although most Yes fans would cite the early '70s as the band’s most classic period, these early recordings give listeners a glimpse of what led up to that classic sound that so defined the progressive era and is the only live release to feature the original Yes line-up.

Also featuring liner notes by guitarist Peter Banks who over saw the original 1998 release of these recordings. Includes an amazing version of “Every Little Thing” plus dramatic cover versions of the Beatles and Stephen Stills, and the rare Yes original and previously unreleased “For Everyone.”
