Hi all,  listen carefully to this song (ignore the lyrics and concentrate on music).



Of course many people already knows it, but...

now listen to this one....



And finally to this one...(starting from minute 1:30)



What do you think?

The songs are from the albums below

Wow... certainly very interesting... 

But, after a bit of research, I found this;


The Blackmore's Night song, at least, is based off of the traditional song "Sieben Tage lang"(German)/"Bots 'Zeven dagen lang" (Neverlands). I think it's fair to assume that the other two you posted are also.

Marillion - The Fruit of the Wild Rose (the long outro jam)


Transatlantic - "Suite Charlotte Pike Medley" (the intro jam)


Pretty sure both are based around the same Pete Trewavas demo. Pete got a lot of mileage out of that little progression.

You are correct, I think. It's not a case of copying. Both the artists have the same influences and in particular "Ballo in Fa Diesis Minore" is taken from a medieval leid.

Here are two great renditions of a classic. (the lyrics are more or less the same)

There's also an instrumental version of Blackmore's Night, but I don't remember on which album, plus a vocal only version from Kay McCarthy (the two together make a song Smile). This is a song which had a lot of interpreters including Joan Baez for what I know. 

The good of this thread is that we have already 3 videos of an artist that I think deserves to be listened to (at least the early albums).

I've talked about this in the past, but it's more complicated than that. See: http://www.bluoz.com/iabd/vince.html Be-bop jazzman Vince Wallace claims that he wrote it in 1962 and taught it to David LaFlamme of It's a Beautiful Day in 1966.

I know I mentioned this in your earlier thread, Octopus, but I'd had a discussion with Dick Heath about this song http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=62049&PID=3417549, where he wrote:

As stated a number of times in PA: which was in turn  lifted from J.S.Bach and stated so in the line notes for a remastered issue of IABD album.
 
Johann Sebastian was targeted by a number of prog and heavy rock musicians at the end of the 60's and early 70's and indeed Wendy Carlos did a whole synth album Switched On Bach and later the complete Brandenburg Concertos.  BBC 2 did a complete programme on why Bach's music appealed so much - particularly the Brandenburgs  - in the early 70's .


I love this Vince Wallace version of Bombay Calling) -- I prefer it to It's a Beautiful Day's:
