Gentle Giant: Scraping the
Barrel (Alucard).
With a sound influenced as
much by Scarlatti as Sgt. Pep-
per, Gentle Giant was the origi-
nal baroque ’n’ roll band of the
’70s. Pushing boundaries in
ways that made prog-rock su-
perstars such as Yes and Gene-
sis seem like amateurs, the
band’s music melded British
folk, 20th century chamber
music and Beatlesque inven-
tion.
Now, 25 years after disband-
ing, Gentle Giant has released
a four-CD boxed set that sheds
new light on the group’s ex-
traordinary virtuosity and en-
semble songwriting. As the title
implies, this retrospective goes
deep into the archival barrel.
