I'll try to answer and add most of you as contacts as long as we share the same interests (see above) .
I have loved this song literally from the first time I heard it, when it was first released, and I think I might actually love it more now. It is timeless and really showcases how ridiculously talented each one of these men are.
Memorabile concerto in Italy nel 1972. Qui da noi hanno avuto un grande apprezzamento , grandi strumentisti e musica all'avanguardia. Una delle migliori prog band....
BTW, in that other video, when the character picks up the Gentle Giant album, it's between two Sun Ra albums... that's a crazy space-themed jazz band (occasionally with synth noises) that recorded a lot of albums in 1956-1993.
Few things gets better with time, nostalgia is one, Gentle Giant is another, Long live Gentle Giant and their Music. Love to all the lads and hats of for Ray. If somebody happens pass his place of rest, please lay down a Rose from me.
Good call, thinking about it to match the sax solo on Low Spark of high heeled boys, do Traffic, and the organ solo on Moving towards the light, by Graham Bond Org. Check it out! Cheers from BR!
I saw Gentle Giant live at the beautiful Tower Theater in Philly in the late seventies. I'm still in awe,and amazed by that concert. 5 classicly trained Musicians playing the coolest progressive Rock tunes on the Planet. ❤🥁🎶
Un ejemplo de un grupo involucrado en la exploración de distintas melodias y armonias con transiciones bruscas por ejemplo la suavidad de Ray en el violin con la fuerza de la trompeta, y Kerry la transicion entre los mazos del xilofono y la bella de la cuerdas frotadas del chelo y los ritmosy grooves con los mallets de Weathers, y Green desde el acorde soporte, SENCILLA Y COMPLEJAMENTE PERFECTA, QEPD y gran viaje celestial RAY
My Special Band from the progbands . There was so many in the ealy 70th ( Genesis , Yes,King Crimson , Focus , Camel , Soft Machine, Colloseum , Jethro Tull aso. ) They Sounds all different but GG was more different. 5 genious musicians could Play over 30 instuments in a way of close by perfect !!!!!!! That was GG 👍💯🎸💞
@ronaldoroyal|8443. Yes! I was introduced to GG by my then boyfriend back in 1970ish. I was 18, along with so many other brilliant bands, some of which you mentioned. We were lucky at the time. Massey Hall in Toronto had these bands come and put on shows for 5 bucks a ticket!!! We lived an hour and a half away. We saw Gentle Giant 3x, Genesis 4x, Camel in England in 75. Never did see King Crimson or Pink Floyd, but loved them both intensely. For whatever the reasons, Gentle Giant was my favourite band then and still is to this day. It’s hard for me to listen to them - so emotional and memories. Cheers
Unreal, GG were on a rise with the chest release etc. I know it may sound goofy given the age of the band, but it feels like Ray could have done so much more with the modern GG projects. GG's music is complete, but its presentation isn't. Rest in peace, genius!
