shh Don't tell anybody but all rock and roll is derivative of something else
and i do suspect Beatles and Cheap Trick are 2 gigantic avatars for zillions
of bands
It does not take away the quality of songs or the song writing
if I know from whence they came. imo
However
if your saying the Move?
Then I'm even more likely to look at them for being original
because only you and 5 of your friends know the Move's catalogue
Both Shazam and Cotton Mather are 2 great examples of reinventing influences
without reinventing the wheel
If you haven't heard it before
then it's new to you
