GENTLE GIANT Double Press Pack (Rare Late 70's set of 2 official press packs for 1976's Live album Playing The Fool and 1977's The Missing Piece. Each press release is presented on Capitol printed paper, providing biographies on the band's history and musical development - a key factor with Gentle Giant who epitomised musical evolution, multi-instrumentalism and frequently explored new directions, also including key details about the individual albums. Featuring 10-pages of information in total, each press pack also comes with magazine articles on the band around the time of each release making for a great, informative read about the band's reception as it happened at the time! Also included are 2 superb original 10"x 8" black and white publicity photographs: 1 of which is a classic shot of the band leaning over a rail in 1976, the other being a super and seldom seen close-up image of the full band shot a year or so later showing how the hair-cuts were getting shorter and the floral shirts were being ditched for duffle coats and shades! This complete set is housed in a custom picture/band logo printed textured outer folder [which notably features artwork based on the 'Interview' album] with a small embossed Capitol logo on the inner flap. The outer folder shows only light discolouration due to age but the package is otherwise in near mint condition throughout - a scarce item and a sheer delight for any 'Giant' fan, acknowledging a renowned live record and yet another brilliant studio album by one of prog rock's most talented, unsung and eclectic!).
