Album 962



Gentle Giant - Octopus
Year: 1972

This album is whimsical, chaotic and controlled at the same time. It feels very tounge in cheek and once again, incredibly british. The album can freak out and rock out, often at the same time, the vocal performance here is just stunning and it's a pleasure to listen to every time around. Chosing three songs has never been so hard, but then again it hasn't been this enjoyable either. This is wonderful stuff, every bit is both progressive, fun and awesome. This is one to listen to when need you something that's always going to be new, fresh and interesting.

3 Choice Tracks: The Advent of Panurge, Raconteur Troubadour, Dog's Life
