Well I will be using my review of the eponymous 1st album that I posted to TPRAC thread when it becomes time, but I can't over-emphasize what I said there, the 1st album is NOTHING compared to what would come later. IMO they found their greatness on the third album posted above & never let it go until the record executives forced them to dumb their music down in 1977. Not that there's ANYTHING wrong with the DIY movement that was really flourishing then, it just wasn't who Giant was. And their near consensus least favorite of those three last albums is my pick for the only really successful attempt at pop-Giant. I will get to that album last.
