i'm looking at the Intro to Reggae thread, and i can already see artists/albums that i'm considering checking out

The only thing Gentle Giant were better at than kicking ass in studio was kicking ass onstage! :laughing:

Takes me back a few years. Great fanmade vid too.

I love this song, but the video didn't work. I'm gonna' go on youtube and watch it myself

I've always loved the lyrics to this song:
You're here, I'm pleased, I really dig your company
Your style your smile, your peace mentality
Lord, have mercy on me, I was blind, now I can see
What a king supposed to be, Baby I'm feelin' free, come on and go with me
Chorus: Let's take, a long walk, around the park, after dark,
Find a spot for us to spark, conversation, verbal elation, stimulation
Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxation, elevations,
Or maybe we can talk about Surah 31:18
Your background, it ain't squeaky clean, **** sometimes we all gotta swim
upstream
You ain't a saint, we all are sinners, but you put your good foot down and
make your soul a winner
And I respect that, man you're so phat, and you're all that, plus supreme
Then you're humble, man I'm love yo with feelin, I can feel everything that
you bring.
Let's take, a long walk, around the park, after dark
Find a spot for us to spark conversation, verbal elation, stimulation
Share our situations, temptation, education, relaxation, elevation,
or maybe we can talk about Revelations 3:17
Or maybe we can see a movie, or maybe we can see a play on
Saturday, or maybe we can roll a tree, or feel the breeze and listen to a
symphony, or maybe chill and just be, or maybe
Maybe we can take a cruise and listen to the Roots, or maybe eat
some passion fruit, or maybe cry to the blues, or maybe we can just be silent.
Come on, come on
Or maybe we can save the nation Come on

Strange combo, I know, but great album. Holla if you want it.
