Tribute bands or bands/artists making a comeback..any favorites out there??

@moofoo; no I have not heard the new Alan Parsons LP. I've checked every music website that I know of, and no one has any song samples to listen to. That is both rare and strange; and, perhaps a bad omen. He played two songs from the new LP at the concert that I saw, and they were decent. My main focus has been on trying to figure out which APP concert DVD to buy.

I don't care about "tribute" bands as the entire thing seems silly, but one of my fave touring bands that I've managed to see locally a few times in recent years is the Martin Barre Band, which is sort of a "tribute" to Jethro Tull (or in the case of Barre a tribute to himself), but with currently more coherent singing than Ian Anderson could summon these days. These guys play with some serious gusto and get that "English folk meets prog rock" thing done in spades...a powerful and clearly authentic sounding killer band.

A friend of mine saw Barre’s band recently and said it was great. I have a solo CD by him (could not find it on vinyl) and the compositional variety and skill shown is...well, exceptional. Do you know if he lives in the US now? Hope I get a chance to see him. Love his playing on the early Tull stuff, integral and critical to that sound.

I spoke to his wife at the "merch" table last time they played at my local venue, and she said they do live in London...I bought the latest album on CD and it's great. Note that Barre at 72 has astonishing energy and his guitar chops haven't diminished one bit...an astonishing musician.

Purple Reign a Prince Tribute band are amazing

I dont want to sound like a broken record but The Musical Box is the closest thing to the real Genesis out there. Saw  them 2 months ago.
