No, it's not me.  I've been into Gentle Giant for some time.  But I was able to convert one of my friends to Gentle Giant today just by playing him one minute of Boys in the Band.

My friend and I work for our college radio station, and we were doing a studio production test.  Unfortunately, I could not choose my own music to play, but I was able to play any instrumental I wanted during the mic break.  I stuck in Boys in the Band, and my friend loved it.  Coincidentally, my friend had received 50 free music downloads today, and a couple of hours later, he's listening to On Reflection and loving it!

I converted my old band members with Peel The Paint (we were guesting on a radio show and the deejay asked to bring along some prog to play ... I snuck in GG amidst the Floyd and Yes ... my drummer and guitarist literally stared open-mouthed at the brilliance!

My wife on the other hand ... feel asleep with GG playing, woke up with the eerie voices of Three Friends ... and forebade me from playing the band in the room at night ever again!

"Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.”

"No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present."
