School Days is also my favourite, actually feels very strange it wasn't on the list.

Since Three Friends is my favorite album, a toss-up between the last two tracks (Mister Class and Quality, and the title track).

Hi!
new entry, nomen omen (Love_Giant) :^) I love almost everything of GG; one of my favourite album is Three Friend, and I expecially love "Peel the Paint". Now the bad question: Does exist a source (video or audio) with the Giants performing Peel the Paint with John Weathers, or to be open-minded, WITHOUT Malcom Mortimore? I believe Malcolm is good , but John would give another level of power to this track. I ahve been looking and searching for years, with no luck... Thanks everyone in advance, John |

I'm sorry,
but since there is no quoting, I don't understand if the Guldbamsen and ThyroidGlands posts are an answer to my question  (thank you, anyway).I found this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKxGn0UwI-8; is this you were referring to? |

Can't believe I'm the first to vote for freehand but there are many great songs here.

Three friends. When that choir kicks in it’s pretty epic.

Hi there and welcome to Progarchives, John  If you take a closer look at upper right side of every post, you will see two quoting options. I wasn’t responding to you as I sadly have no answer to your query. I only mentioned my fave Gentle Giant tracks. Best of luck going forth. |

Not the biggest GG fan overall, but they have some top notch material for sure. Vote for Proclamation followed by On Reflection and Runaway.

The Advent of Panurge...
but I would have voted for "The Boys in the Band" if it were listed. |
