GENTLE GIANT
TORONTO, ONTARIO
CONVOCATION HALL
JAN. 24, 1975
(EXCERPT FROM SOUNDCHECK)


Here's a little tidbit for any hard core Giant collectors out there.
It's a short, four and a half minute snatch from the band's soundcheck
before their Toronto show, where they were supporting their POWER AND
THE GLORY album.

There's already a pretty decent recording of the actual concert from
that night floating around out there, but that doesn't include any of
the soundcheck. This is from a different source completely. I knew
a guy who managed to get into a couple soundchecks around that time
and he managed to grab this little gem on one of those occasions. So
I got this direct from that taper.

There are no vocals on here and the band does plenty of the typical
noodling around you'd expect at a soundcheck. But you can recognize a
little of the song So Sincere. The highlight, however, is a small
portion of No God's a Man, a tune they never played in concert. Maybe
they were considering it?
