First time ever video! Bassline AS PLAYED* note-for-note by Chris Squire from the Yes debut album. *Please excuse my not-perfect playing of all the syncopated parts to this bassline: I am a finger style bassist, and the aim of the video is to show how to play this bassline with a pick.
Chris Squire played this bassline on his special Rickenbacker 4001 on the first Yes album in 1969.

In this video you can see and hear the signature style of Chris Squire and enjoy the bright tone and growl of a May 1973 Rickenbacker 4001. Chris Squire was, surprisingly, only 21 years old when he recorded this brilliant and energetic bassline, and went on to become, to many, the Greatest Rock Bass Player. And this video features the ORIGINAL YES MUSICIANS including Peter Banks on guitar (and not Steve Howe) and Tony Kaye on keyboards (and not Rick Wakeman). Drums: Bill B⁷ruford, Vocals: Jon Anderson.
Note: it took me 2 days to learn this bassline with an accurate transcription and create this video. For the transcription of this bassline go to the following link, search for the group, Yes:

My bass is a vintage Rickenbacker 4001 bass manufactured in May 1973 with its original pickups. My plectrum is a 1972 Herco grey nylon heavy gauge pick--the same as recommended by Chris Squire, himself. Both pickups are on full power, and both tone switches are turned all the way clockwise. The strings are new DR HI-BEAMS 45 -105 roundwound strings, and the bass is playing through a Marshall B25 MK-2 amplifier with no additional pre-amp nor sound effects.
The Tone Controls on Marshall amp: Bass at full, Midrange at 2 o'clock, Treble at full.
I own no part of this music.
