For all Gentle Giant Fans and Prog Fans
Come in my buddies

Who would believe me now that my hands are free, that my hands are free.
I never thought it would ever come to me, ever come to me.
Now that my life's my own, I leave you behind, leaving you behind.
What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, that I'd change my mind.

It wasn't hard to run, break away from you, break away from you,
After all you'd done, what was I to do, what was I to do.
Who's gonna take my place in the games you play, in the games you play.
Nobody's listening now to the things you say, all the things you say.

Now my hands are free from the ties, from the ties.
Now I look forward to the future, where it lies.
And with you, feeling low, looking black
Here, now my head is clear, why should I look back.

I'm not familiar with Eltons early work though, is it worth listening to?

Wow. That is kinda strange to think about. Wonder what GG would've sounded like with Elton/Reginald on keyboards.

Razalduria

Yup, that's true. He wasn't called Elton John at that time (he thought about that name and told the Shulman brothers about it when he was about to join Simon Dupree/Gentle Giant as full member). His name was Reginald Kenneth Dwight prior to Elton John.

I mean Elton John

a short time in Simon Dupree and the Big Sound the original keyboard player could not play some gigs so Elton has played these gigs (in that time he was no solo aritist)

didn't even know this exisited, thanks cogsncogs:-) Gentle Giant was formed by Derek, Ray and Phil Shulman in 1970 after the dissolution of their soul/pop band Simon Dupree and the Big Sound in 1969 . The brothers joined with Gary Green, Kerry Minnear, and a succession of drummers to produce a series of twelve albums throughout the 1970s, finally dissolving quietly in 1980. Their earlier albums were more eclectic and experimental than their later ones. By 1974, as they started to gather an American following, they simplified their songs (which, compared to other rock artists at the time, were still very complex) to gain a wider audience. Free Hand reached the Top 50 in the U.S. By 1977, as cultural trends saw the mainstream of music shifting towards punk and New Wave, the band developed a much more commercial sound. In 1979, they relocated to America to record their twelfth and most mainstream album, Civilian, after which the group disbanded:-( ...and thats part of the story!!

Just finished watching the Giant on the box DVD. Some really great footage on that DVD! Very fun to watch indeed. Once again I get the feeling that I was born way too late. I envy the people that was fortunate enough to see this amazing band live!
