I think Igor was excellent.  I got to see him perform in Yes in 2000.  Amazing concert.

Tony Kaye! Why I am the first who vote for him?Shocked  However, he is definitely more important figure than Patrick Moraz, which has appeared only on one (and overrated in my opinion) album.

Moraz for his outstanding work on Relayer. The Battle section of Gates is one of my favourite moments in music - riveting, intricate.

A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

Too easy. I feel sorry for the others, because Moraz is dominating.

Kaye because he was rather good on all the Yes albums until he got left behind by technology. Moraz is amazing but I much prefer the Refugee album over Relayer where Howe and White have the 'starring roles'.

From this list clearly Moraz. Saw the Relayer Tour and he was amazing. Was unfortunate that this was his only stint with Yes. It would have been interesting to see what else they could have done if he had remained in the band.

 Igor and Tony Kaye are good-also got to see both of them. Geoff Downes IMHO is awful. Saw the Drama Tour at Madison Square Garden and Downes had this huge keyboard set up and he touches 2 or 3 of the keys the entire show-he was bad on all the non-Drama material.

I lean on your opinion. Koroshev made a great job on The Ladder, even if he wasn't as innovative as Moraz.


One of my best achievements in life was to find this picture :D

All of them pale by comparison with Rick Wakeman, not just because of his talent, but because he was the best fit.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Somehow I feel it would have been very interesting if Patrick Moraz and Bill Bruford had been in Yes at the same time. Well, there's Fish out of Water, but that's not exactly the same.
