'Twas ever thus !!
I'm a Floyd fan, and wasted years trying to find something similar. It isn't out there, and once I'd figured that out I got on with looking for different music.
The trick lies in developing your tastes so that you can slip into the mindset of whoever is playing, and try to listen from that perspective. Sort of tuning into the music. Derivative music is fine if you're not listening to it judged against the standards of a favourite artist
