True. But it seems that there isn't a fanbase as dedicated to tracking down
such things, as there is for Pink Floyd -- I'm not sure anyone even knows
where the *director* of "Yessongs" is these days, much less the work parts
of the film. And like Pink Floyd, Yes itself rarely seems interested in
pursuing such detective work either.
