FLARES and platform boots were the order of the day at the weekend when a new exhibition devoted to rock band Yes opened in Accrington.

Yes - 35 Years of Wondrous Music, opened at the Haworth Art Gallery.

The display, put together by super-fan David Watkinson, features everything from rare records to posters, T-shirts to programmes.

The 35th anniversary display coincided with the 60th birthday celebrations of Yes lead singer Jon Anderson - who is originally from Accrington.

Guests at the opening event were also treated to guided tours by David, refreshments, and even a birthday cake and candles.
