Reviews
4 Stars (out of 5) - "...OCTOPUS is from the band's full-blooded 'prog' heyday...be assured that there was no-one like them...", "...Conceived as eight pieces, each reflecting the character of a member of the band....an early Giant piece could hurtle from jazz-rock to medieval madrigal, via an a cappella section, a recorder duet and a vibraphone solo....dexterously performed and likely to baffle as enthuse an audience..."

  • Perfect Vinyl Reissue of a Classic Album

    Gentle Giant was a very individual progressive rock band who were noted for their rhythmic complexity and their harmonies often drawing on madrigal forms, albeit within accompanied songs. This was most likely enhanced by the presence, still at this stage, of the three Shulman brothers, Derek, Ray and Phil, whose voices fused well together. Although there are different views about which early Gentle Giant album is the high point, for many Octopus is the one. It was certainly to one I listened to the most as my brother bought it shortly after we saw them at the Caird Hall in Dundee for the first time. It is said that the albums title derived from it having eight songs. The songs are either based on or inspired by literary sources. This is most noticeable on Knots, based on RD Laing’s book ...
