Gentle Giant Three Friends UK 1972 LP Vertigo Records Catalogue Number 6360 070, Spiral Label, Gentle Giant's third album (and their first self-produced effort, Tony Visconti having run the sessions on the two previous records) was another advance, this time in the direction of a harder rock sound everything sounds turned up here, especially the guitars, the bass, and the electronic keyboards. Three Friends hardly sacrificed any of the group's progressive intentions, however, and there are some softer moments here, such as the playful, sprightly first half of "Schooldays"; the harmonies and arrangements still had a distinctly medieval feel, and the melodies, though a little harder to discern here (which made them even more appealing when they did become obvious), were quite engaging. This is a concept album, about the relationship between three friends across a lifetime. Gatefold Sleeve EX-- Record EX-, P&P UK £3.75 (1st Class Recorded) Overseas at cost
