...Wakeman is gone...and it doesnt seems loke he coming back...so, naturaly Yes will have to get a replacement (if they didnt already...). All this keyboard players played ones in Yes...so then...why not bring them back?...pick one

my choice? Patrik Moraz...not a coubt!!

I 'ave to go with Moraz.  He did a splendid job on Relayer and what I 'ave 'eard from 'is solo albums is fantastic.
And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I
don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime.
I never said I was frightened of dying.

If we're going to bring back an ex-Yes keyboard player, might as well make it Moraz.

OK, I voted for Moraz, but I think they could try and find someone else completely (NOT Derek Sherinian, perhaps...). As for Wakeman, I hope this time he's gone for good - don't get me wrong, I find him great, but all these comings and goings are getting a bit on my nerves.

Doesn't matter who if Yes are going to record a new album with any new keyboard player at last.

I would go for Moraz but I don't see him coming back. Geoff Downes would be my second choice.

I think he would fit really well into Yes and their approach to music

I would take Moraz if it wasn't a fantasy.  Next on my list is the guy Wakeman replaced although i would hate to see him leave his present band.  Tom Brislin of Spiraling.  He played on the symphonic tour and he can sing really well also.

I'd have to say Patrick just because I love his work on Relayer and because
he has skills to contend with Wakeman.

Patrick's work on Relayer was excellent(particularly Gates of Delirium). However he cannot contend with someone like Wakeman. I would take Wakeman over anyone(Emerson doesn't suit my tastes like Wakeman does).

I'll see you on the Darkside of the moon...

If Wakeman HAD to be replaced in the Yes lineup, i'd like to see it done by either Moraz or Downes, since I loved Relayer and Drama. Igor Khoroshev on The Ladder was decent but he wasn't as strong as Downes or Moraz. Tony Kaye was better than Igor but I didn't care for him too much. Billy Sherwood was just awful.

Damn twice!!!
And even before recording a new studio album!!!!!!!!!!!

Want Wakey back! No way! Without him it doesn't work, not even with Moraz (think about the Moody Blu(nd)e(r)s stuff in the '80's....)

Wakey is the man!!!!!

Listen to Turkish psych/prog; you won't regret:
Baris Manco,Erkin Koray,Cem Karaca,Mogollar,3 Hürel,Selda,Edip Akbayram,Fikret Kizilok,Ersen (and Dadaslar) (but stick with the '70's, and 'early 80's!)
