The place where the YES story began - Wardour Street, Soho in London, England as it looked in 2005. Back in 1968, the La Chasse bar where YES founders Jon Anderson and Chris Squire first met was located at 100 Wardour Street (the building in the middle with the four awnings). The Marquee Club where YES played so many early gigs was in those days at 90 Wardour Street (the building with the large arched entry to the right of number 100). |

A reminder of the old Marquee Club at 90 Wardour Street, Soho can be found next door on a panel on the front of the Mezzo Restaurant. It lists the glittering array of talent that appeared at the Marquee over the years including YES (top row, third from left). |
