Gentle Giant

The first band I'm going to present to you is Gentle Giant. Gentle Giant is absolutely one of my favourite bands, mainly because of their very unique sound I've yet to hear any other band make. A brief history;
Gentle Giant was founded out of the ashes of Simon Dupree and the Big Sound in 1970 in Great Britain. The brothers Ray, Phil and Derek Shulman got together with two other multi-instrumentalist, creating Gentle Giant. The members who were in the band when they broke up in 1980 were Kerry Minnear, Derek Shulman, Ray Shulman, Gary Green, John Weathers.The five multi-instrumental members of this band played a total of over 35 instruments! But enough history, let's hear it!
