Gentle Giant - WLIR Ultrasonic Concert Series, Ultrasonic Recording Studios, Hempstead, NY, 10-7-1975

I've got a friend who really likes the British prog rock band Gentle Giant. They are one of his very favorite prog rock bands. After hearing him talk about them, I noticed I had one of their concerts in my very big pile of music I want to post, because it's part of the "Ultrasonic Recording Studios" radio broadcast series. So here it is.

The concert is well timed if you're a Gentle Giant fan. Looking at the crowd-sourced ratings of their albums on rateyourmusic.com, their first seven albums, released 1970 to 1977, all got very high ratings, and then there was a drop-off. This concert took place shortly after the release of their seventh album, "Free Hand." This concert consists of three songs from that album, plus songs from five previous albums.

Personally, I wasn't that taken with this music. Their songs don't stick in my mind. However, there's no denying they had lots of musical talent. By the way, my friend was raving about an Eber Pinheiro remix and remaster of the Gentle Giant album "In a Glass House," which was officially released earlier this year. So if you're a fan of this band, you should check that out.  

The music here is unreleased. The sound quality is excellent. 

This album is an hour and ten minutes long.
