Notes: The Hollywood Bowl show has always been a favorite among Gentle Giant collectors. Here it is presented in a direct transfer from an uncirculated reel tape audience master. In one of the more bizarre pairings of bands live on stage, Gentle Giant were the tour openers for Black Sabbath. Unfortunately then, and much funnier now, the crowd treated the band rather poorly. During the introduction for "Funny Ways", someone tossed a cherry bomb on stage. The rant that follows is truly classic. That didn't stop the band from putting on a great set, however. Like true professionals, they kept on undisturbed.

Like true professionals, they kept on undisturbed. If you are at all curious about Gentle Giant, this show is a good place to start for their earlier music. It's a mixture of the medieval period and odd harmonies, put on with an amazing proficiency and technical skill. Some people say that early Tull is medieval, which Ian Anderson has repeatedly denied over the years. Think that style multiplied about tenfold, and you have Gentle Giant. Perhaps it isn't a good analogy, I don't know.
