THE MISSING PIECE

Gentle Giant

Eclectic Prog

From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

Not really prog, but not a album overall, pop, disco even punkrock (Betcha Thought We COuldn't Do It), bluesrock, boogy (Mountain Time), all sorts of styles are integrated in the album.

Overly commercial, very safe and it could have been the big breaktrough for the band, but it wasn't. Maybe not poppy enough?

I like this album, because of the energy and the bandmembers seem to have a lot of fun with the music. I understand a lot of reviewers here dislike the album for not being prog enough. But on the other hand it's still experimental in the sense that so many styles are covered.

Because it's not prog i rate it 2 stars!
