Gentle Giant

[one_crow_sorrow]

Anyone else listen to this incredible (and extremely underrated) band? They have a very unique sound, and each member is very proficient with multiple instruments. Their sound is a combination of great musical talent and amazing vocal harmonies. They are very complex musically and at the same time very accessible, and rather addictive once you get into them and get used to their somewhat odd style.

If you're interested, go here (http://www.progarchives.com/Progressive_rock_discography_BAND.asp?band_id=118# mp3) and download the free mp3s. I recommend Prologue and Knots.

Prog

I see. I dig on the prog, so I'll check them out at some point. Right now, however, all of my resources are focused on JAZZ, so how soon that will be remains to be determined. They don't have any jazz-rock elements to them, do they? :D

Actually, yes. Quite a few of their songs have jazz elements to them. I can't really think of any other bands to compare them to though. Like I said, they are a very unique band.

Alright, I'll give a listen next time I'm in a prog mood.:)
