Pete left right after “Time and a Word’ came out, ironically they put the picture with Steve Howe on it, even though he didn’t play on the record.

I know it’s been days since this was initially posted, but I didn’t have time to respond initially and feel compelled to write something out of respect for Peter’s contributions.
I have great respect and admiration for Peter Bank’s’ talent and contributions. Steve Howe is one of my favorite guitarists, and I therefore never paid that much attention to the work that Peter did before Steve joined Yes - until a few years ago. I was curious, and went back to listen to Peter’s stuff. He was great, and had a very unique style in his own right. If not for his contributions, the ongoing saga of Yes might not have happened. He got poorly treated in many ways, and deserves respect for what he accomplished.
