  • Description

    Out of Simon Dupree & The Big Sound came Gentle Giant and these, their first two albums for the Vertigo label, were released in 1970 and 1971.

    The band's Progressive style was a complete change from Simon Dupree's Pop/RnB sound, but a new wave of fans in the UK, US and particularly in Europe ensured that for years the group had a healthy live and recording career.

    Digitally remastered and slipcased.

    Extensive new notes.
