Gentle Giant Acquiring The Taste UK 1971 LP Vertigo Records Catalogue Number 6360041 (Spiral Label), The band's second album is a major advance on its first, featuring superior singing, playing, and songwriting, as well as a more unified sound, without sacrificing the element of surprise in the first record. Many of the melodies and even the riffs here (check out Gary Green's first guitar flourish on "Pantagruel's Nativity") have a pretty high haunt count, and all of the musicianship displays an elegance seldom heard even in progressive circles but the record also, amazingly enough, rocks really hard as well. Elements of hard rock and Gregorian chants mix freely and, amazingly enough, well throughout this album. Gatefold Sleeve EX-- Record EX-- (Couple of light scuffs plays great), P&P UK £3.75 (1st Class Recorded) Overseas at cost
