Tony Kaye kinda gets shorted in Yes history, but he appears on one of my favorite Yes albums (ironically named The Yes Album). Also, he played on and co-wrote Yours Is No Disgrace (great Yes song). He later rejoins Yes, but not until after he gets a hit for Badfinger and makes a couple of amazing albums as Badger. Over his career, he's played with some cool dudes and always seems to play with ex-Yes guys. I think whenever anyone gets tired of Rick Wakeman's ego, they bring in Tony for a breath of fresh air and some great playing! These are my picks, but he has so much to choose from. Put your favorites I missed in the comments. You won't hurt my feelings.
