^ Check out? You've never heard them? If so, then I would personally say that "The Civil Surface" is not a great place to start.

If you don't mind waiting, then Inside Out's online store would be the way to go. It takes 2-3 weeks for your order to arrive. I'm still waiting on my huge Flower Kings order, but I placed it on the first of this month. It also takes at least two days for your order to process. I'm hoping some of my Amazon orders arrive soon so I can listen to these while I wait on this Flower Kings order. Smile

Also bought the newer Transatlantic album The Whirlwind:
 
 
 
I know, I know I said I was done with purchases for awhile but I just couldn't help myself. Embarrassed

I've heard a couple of tracks from this. Plus, I'm not entirely new to the Canterbury scene. If I like it, then their other albums are next.

All of these are favorites except for the VDGG album, but I'm just not into them at all. I hope you enjoy the Gentle Giant album. It's great. Do you own their other recordings?

Yeah, I'm no big fan of VDGG either, or Rush or Yes for that matter.
 
Rush and Yes are just OK in my book, nothing more. I like them, but nothing I've heard from them has ever blown me away, Gates of Delirium being the exception. VDGG has grown on me though.
 
Yeah, Free Hand is good! Gentle Giant is one of my absolute favourite bands, but I'm quite new to them, so I haven't acquired all of the albums from them that I want to, yet. I only owned the s/t debut, Acquiring The Taste and Octopus from before.

You should get Gentle Giant's Three Friends, In A Glass House, and The Power and the Glory. All of these are fantastic and worth acquiring. I would look into getting the recent remasters as they improve the audio quality a lot. They cleaned up a lof the sound and now all the instruments/vocals have greater clarity than before.

Nice unexpected trip to the used CD store with the family.  Wife got a buttload of DVDs including the Partridge Family Season 1 which I'm watching right now.  But in the CD department, I got these:

Ringo Starr's All-Starr Band vol 2
Depeche Mode - Speak and Spell
Tom Petty - Wildflowers
John Lennon - 2 disc anthology
The Saints - I'm Stranded
Bongwater - Too Much Sleep
The Tubes - The Completion Backwards Principle

No trace of prog in there, but what the hey.

Went ahead and bought Caravan's Waterloo Lily, which I've read is a pretty controversial album in the band's history:
