Sad news. The former Bass player from Gentle Giant has passed.  His playing was a Huge influence on me.

Thanks for posting this.  It's been a while since I've listened to them; need to make some time to do that this weekend.

Quirky music by a bunch of very talented musicians. I dug this band too. RIP

Very sad to see his passing. I bought Octopus in a head shop/ record store in my town in 1978. I've been a fan ever since. The way they all switched instruments, sang complex vocals and harmonies was beyond impressive. If you get a chance check out the Steve Wilson remixes of the Giants art.
