Yeah I remember that one. I guess in Unified Past's case I just don't see them as a clone: they're way heavier than Yes are and Naro does other things with his voice that Anderson doesn't do. 'Today's The Day' does sound like a love letter to Yes though. However, if you remember that one band Druid back in the mid 70's or the first Starcastle album....that's some deep Yes cloneage going on.
That would make for an interesting journal actually: bands and artists with really obvious influences yet still put out great music.
