GORGG Tribe

Tribe- What on earth? Well, we are on Earth, somewhat. We are musicians whose minds have been permanently and irreversibly altered by the music of Gentle Giant. Some more, some less, but all have some degree of this infectious influence.
Yes, you might find a bit more Genesis in one, Yes in another, but all still will have some degree of the GG influence. More jazz in some, more rock in others, GG had all these influences. You might have to strain to hear it, while at other times, it just jumps out at you and bites you!
If you are a prog fan, you will enjoy the music of this bunch of lunatics! And the purpose of this MySpace page is to give you a place to see where we all are coming from as well as a place to get our music, be it by ordering our CDs or just by listening to the various pieces. We think you will enjoy it- many already have. So don't be shy, pull up a chair and give us a listen. We just might surprise you!
You can visit our pages to hear where we are from musically (most have samples of music), just go to the Band Members are on your left and click on a suspect :^)_________________________________________________________ ______
2005 gave us Giant for an Hour available from:
KINESIS,
SYN-PHONIC, if link is disabled, it is www.synphonic.8m.com/,
and CD BABY
"After several listens, I can honestly say this is by far the best tribute album I've heard in years. Each track is well done and the production and packaging are very impressive. Stand out tracks for me are; Days in Cymru, Suit Yourself and Death At Sea. Honestly every track is fantastic. You can't go wrong here!This is one of those albums that flew in under the radar that needs it's existence to be known to all progressive rock fans. High recommended release!"

2006 gave us Giant for Another Hour available from:
KINESIS,
SYN-PHONIC, if link is disabled, it is www.synphonic.8m.com/,
and CD BABY
"This idea of doing original music while being inspired by the band Gentle Giant is a refreshing thing. Maybe something like this can be done for other bands." --Ron Fuchs, Prognaut Reviews

"This is actually a fascinating disc. With so many contributors it's interesting to hear how a band like Gentle Giant impacted these composers' lives. It's not always easy for one to see or hear the obvious because inspiration goes deeper than that. This is certainly not even remotely a disc of 'covers' rather it's a disc of highly original and in some cases highly artistic pieces of music."

2008 gave us A Reflection available from:
KINESIS, and
CD Baby

"From the people that brought us ‘Giant For An Hour’ and ‘Giant For Another Hour’ comes their latest compilation ‘A Reflection’. I had the pleasure of reviewing both Giant releases, so when ‘A Reflection‘ was sent to me, I was quite excited to hear it. As the subtitle suggests, these tracks are inspired by Gentle Giant which shouldn’t be mistaken as a “tribute” album of Gentle Giant‘s music. Songs range from less than a minute to11 minutes and contains some memorable tracks like “Wood Nymphs” I noticed the music is closer to Gentle Giant’s than the previous efforts, which should please fans since the Giant is sleeping."
"The epic of the compilation, “Islandia” has a slight Latin feel to it and keeps your attention all the way through. Think a Gentle Giant and a heavy early Santana mixture which gives the basis of the song. The shortest track, “We’re Not Home”, which has a humorous answering machine message. It’s presented here twice, a regular 21 second and a 35 second extended version. "
"Another highlight for me is “Off Bass” presented by Zed. It’s a pure jazz and funk track. It contains some excellent playing. In fact the entire compilation has a quality to it that must not be missed by any fan of Gentle Giant, progressive rock or jazz fusion. I recommend those fans to get this ASAP!"
