Gentle Giant - Giant For A Day! [remastered] [HD] full album

Описание

Giant for a Day! is the tenth album by British progressive rock band Gentle Giant which was released in 1978. The band's previous use of counterpoint and medieval-themed arrangements was not present on this recording. This album features a pop rock sensibility, instead of their usual progressive rock sound. Unlike the previous albums, the band did not make any tour or concerts to support this album. From the album only the title track was ever played live by the band during its final tour supporting the Civilian album. All lead vocals by Derek Shulman, except where noted.
All tracks are written by Kerry Minnear, Derek Shulman, and Ray Shulman, except where noted.
