About the Album

A multi-artist compilation CD (Vertigo 846 522-2) including one Gentle Giant track, Plain Truth.

The liner notes say: "Formed in 1970 out of Simon Dupree and the Big Sound, Gentle Giant were in my estimation one of the most interesting and underrated bands from the progressive era. Each of their four swirl releases are a joy to the ear. Enjoyed good success in the USA where several of their albums charted. Good to see that at least two of the Shulman brothers are very successful in the music business today, in the areas of production and A&R."
