Gentle Giant is my absolute favorite of the British prog rock bands. I likes 'em better than Tull, Yes, ELP, Genesis. The clips here are all from, I think, 1975. Gentle Giant has a lot medieval and renaissance sounds in their songs. They all look like a bunch of Hobbits, but unlike a lot of other prog bands, there really isn't a lot of Tolkien-like fantasy in there. It's really just like a rock band was transported back to medieval society: a bunch of Scots in King Arthur's Court!

I think Crimso is the only prog band I can stand these days.
