Aquiring The Taste Gentle Giant SKU: TPT257 Barcode: TPT257 26.00 £26.00 Genre: Progressive Label: Tapestry Released Date: 31st August 2018 Buying Format: 1LP Gatefold Sleeve Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info The band’s second album is a major advance on its first, featuring superior singing, playing, and songwriting, as well as a more unified sound, without sacrificing the element of surprise in the first record. Many of the melodies and even the riffs here (check out Gary Green’s first guitar flourish on “Pantagruel’s Nativity”) have a pretty high haunt count, and all of the musicianship displays an elegance seldom heard even in progressive circles — but the record also, amazingly enough, rocks really hard as well. Elements of hard rock and Gregorian chants mix freely and, amazingly enough, well throughout this album.
