Bill Clarke was influenced by George Smith but didn't sound like him. He also got lots of "derivation" from eg. jazz sax and organ players. Most musicians are influenced by other musicians and that will always be the case.

One classic example is Eric Clapton. He is a self-admitted derivative of, but hardly sounds like Robert Johnson.
