A truly amazing musician, life is better with people like this , I wonder sometimes if they ever think how they shaped and affected the lives of people that grew up with their music .Thank you
Wow! Early Rick Wakeman interview! Really enjoyed watching all these Bob Harris interviews with YES members from the 70s! What a gem! Thanks for posting!
Wakey looks like he's about _eighteen_ here! l'm glad he talked about the musicians he used on the album! l always wondered about all the peeps involved in that AMAZING venture!
.... my goodness I grew up listening this genius´albums .... he was such a young gifted/talented artist & unique in style & looks....I loved him so much ....
Wow, he was talking about the gigs at the Rainbow that were going to be filmed...which became the Yessongs movie. By far the coolest , friendliest, funniest and most interesting member of the 1970s Yes line up.in my opinion....did I mention funniest?
This is a great example of videotape recordings changing/fading colors: Rick's eyes are actually blue, but if you didn't know that and watched this, you'd swear they were brown.
I actually bought the album back in the day, according to wicki it was released in 73. I was 19, already getting fed up with progs conceits, the album was fucking terrible, though I played it a lot and tried to act sophisticated. Listening to these two now, it's a bit like Derek and Clive, I keep waiting for one of them to use the C word.
