Giant for a Day is one of the best pop recordings around. An album late 70's and onwards Genesis could only dream of making.

If released under a different name, it would have been seen as a classic in pop music.

It is a pop abum with progressive overtones. It is not a new wave recording with emphasis on the keyboards. It is not like Civillian, a pop album with emphasis on the guitar and having rock overtones.

Gentle Giant were great songwriters, they just switched their songwriting ability to creating pop music instead of progressive rock.

An album to play when you have those used to listing to typical formulaic pop, new wave or dance music, which you can't stand, but they could take this recording.
