Ep. 266 - A Live Listen (Gentle Giant - Acquiring The Taste)

Let Us Know Your Thoughts!Today we commemorate the 50th anniversary of Gentle Giant's sophomore album Acquiring the Taste by giving it a listen live.  Stripping away much of the blues & soul influences found on their self-titled debut, the band takes a far more experimental approach this go around; declaring that it was their goal to "expand the frontiers of contemporary popular music at the risk of being very unpopular”.  This one's quite the journey.  Join us won't you?!Gentle Giant – Acquiring the Taste (1971)Side A1.    Pantagruel's Nativity           2.    Edge Of Twilight     3.    The House, The Street, The Room           4.    Acquiring The Taste             Side B1.    Wreck 2.    The Moon Is Down  3.    Black Cat       4.    Plain TruthSupport the show
