Who was the guy in FGTH 'Relax' video who was wearing the schoolboy cap and holding a banana. I've just seen a snippet of the video, and just thought the same as I did when the video came out - that guy really looks like he'd rather be somewhere else!

Sorry, I stand corrected - wrong Paul Rutherford
Definitely, Tony.
The original version (pre-Trevor Horn) sounded very raw indeed as you can hear here. The Welcome to the Pleasure Dome album was a masterpiece in production

Trevor Horn sticks in my mind from when he was in Buggles ( video killed the radio star ).
And I think he moved from Buggles to Yes, which raised a few eyebrows in the rock world
Did he factor, I don't remember that. Did he take over from Jon Anderson ?.
Yes, for a while.
From Wikipedia: "Later that year, Horn and Downes were invited to join the rock group Yes. Horn became the lead vocalist, replacing Jon Anderson. He recorded one album with Yes, Drama, on which he also played bass on one track. At the beginning of 1981, after only seven months, he left Yes to concentrate on production work."
Right, thanks factor.
It looks like John Hurt. I've googled it, but can't find any info!
I thought that was a good cover

Yes so did I factor.
