Compare today's pop stars to these guys. Makes me sick to think how much talent is out there yet undiscovered because of the state of the industry. How fortunate we are these guys were able to flourish (relatively speaking) for the 10 years they were together.
My band did this song in High School and I saw them at the Palladium Theater on 14th st. in the Manhattan before it was a nightclub. The drummer was wearing the same outfit that's how I remember...lol Maybe Glee will do a Gentle Giant inspired show.....lol
"We are grateful to The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine..... It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government."

I'm not sure if I should like The Missing Piece or not. At least, it is better than Civilian. Plus, it rocks. But it is GG...

Two weeks in Spain makes the year disappear easy
Two weeks in Spain, you forget, bored and yet weary
We're back again, drink the wine, weather's fine, only
Two weeks in Spain's not enough
