The thing with this album is there are a couple references/ similarities to classic bands.

From what I recall there are Hide In Your Shell and Dance On A Volcano melodies hidden in one of the tracks.

It was obvious but I have heard more blatant rip offs. For example there was a direct lift from ELP on the first Mars Hollow album. I don't remember the song but apparently the band considered it an homage and not a rip off. I guess you get away with it by calling it a tribute. :P

It is even obvious quote. But Pendragon are so musically able that they were able to copy classic prog and add their own ingredients so that their music sound even more magical than blockbusters like Yes or Pink Floyd.

Yes. It's great and it's pure Pendragon.

You mean some strange resemblance to the track from Yes' Relayer album?

I noticed something interesting today while listening to my Pendragon playlist. This may have already been posted and discussed, but on their song "Am I really losing you" from their Window of Life album, there is an familiar chord pattern/melody that starts at the 2:33 mark. Not making any judgment on it one way or the other, just found it interesting. Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this.
