YES - SOMETHING'S COMING - STUDIO RUN THRU 1969 - PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED - PLUS STUDIO DEMO REMASTER

The recent upload of Yes performing Eleanor Rigby live in 1969 was actually part of a slightly more expansive project (called ' The Coming of Eleanor'). This included these two interesting versions of Yes' wonderful rendition of Something's Coming. The rough studio run-thru cut has not, to my knowledge, previously been circulated (please correct me if I'm wrong). So great to hear the band working hard, performing this work-in-progress. The demo is the same version released as a bonus track by Rhino some years ago on the Time & A Word CD. This version here is from the master tape and has had just a light touch of remastering.
We are rather lazy, so imagery is the same as before (apart from the project design 'mock-ups'). Big thanks again to Forgotten Yesterdays - full credits on the photos are listed below:-

Thanks for posting these amazing moments in YES History! It's like watching a favorite plant sprout and grow! They certainly worked for what they achieved, but natural ability and their visionary approach to creating new things without compromise are also to be noted!

Wow! Nice comment! I didn’t know there’s someone like me who appreciates their music. I’m 64 and started following them in 1973. I feel bad Jon left but him wanting %50 of the current band claiming to be Yes is a little too much. He’s still great creating his songs with The Band Geeks.
