Has anyone noticed...

...that in Ryo's Solo on the first Spock's Beard DVD (Don't Try This At Home), he plays the Schizoid Man interlude?    I first got that DVD before I'd heard any Crimson and missed it as such (though Schizoid Man sounded oddly familiar when I first heard it ), and just listened again for the first time in ages, and THERE IT WAS 

In this thread, we list prog bands playing 'teases' of other prog band's materials, or even covers.  Less emphasis should be given on groups containing members of the song covered

Edit:  This was totally meant for Prog Music Lounge, can a mod move it?

But not just lists here please, this is a discussion area.

I just checked out a new band proposed for PA called Zip Tang that does a great version of 'Tarkus' -- good sample on site;

..and let's see, at the end of Al Di Meola's Scenario album, Jeff Beck's 'Blue Wind' is given a tribute

Yes, I noticed that Ryo does the 21st Century Schizoid Man theme, and I was at the J-Tull concert when Ian Anderson, on flute, teamed up with Lucia Micarelli, on violin, to play Kashmir. That was one of the coolest versions of that song I have ever heard (wht the exception of Kevin GIlbert's version).

 Petrucci in his solo for Surrounded when I saw them started playing the solo for "Mother" (and appropriately, the "Wall" bricks appeared on the big screen ) later for the intro to Trial of Tears they played a couple bars of the intro to "Xanadu"

at the end of Tool's "Parabola" the harmonics and few notes sound exactly like "Roundabout"'s intro...or I'm crazy

Tool has many... there is a song (I don`t remember wich one) in 10.000 days that is a completely rip-off of king crimson,s Thark or Level Five, thraking section. It`s incredibly similar, surely inspired by kc.

Wow... where can I hear that, too?

You mean "Staircase to Aqualung"? Was fun to listen.
Don't know of "Kashmir". Samples/proof?

man, I´m in love

but that´s not JT, it´s Ian solo!

I also saw Lucia Micarelli perform Kashmire with JT.  Yummy!

L'infonie tease Ravel's Bolero on one of their albums.

Gov't Mule do a lot of live teases, some prog, some not.

Karl Jenkins always borrows his own riff, it seems.  Tunes by Nucleus and Soft Machine, seem to share that riff.  I guess he ran out of ideas.
