Memory:Moody Geof
I can remember the first time I saw Gentle Giant, it was in St Georges Hall, Bradford, (W. Yorks) England.
They were the support band on the bill; fair enough, as these were early days and the band were relatively unknown. However, they were support to a Jimi Hendrix Film - I think it was Live at Berkeley.
My fondest memory of the concert was of the vibes solo in Funny Ways. Being a new and poor band and perhaps not being able to afford to mike up the vibes, or maybe they just forgot, whatever, the net result was that in order to hear the solo, a microphone was required. This was held by a roadie, who lay on the stage under the vibes, and made attempts to follow Kerry's hands as they moved backwards and forwards along the instrument. Not, I should add, very successfully.
