A few weeks ago, I conducted a poll of GG fans' favorite artists, other than GG. Here are the results!
"List 3 albums, not by Gentle Giant, that you think a Gentle Giant fan would LOVE. For this question, choose albums that you think GG fans are likely to know about already."
The albums that received more than one vote are:
5 Genesis Selling England By The Pound
5 Yes Close To The Edge
3 Genesis Foxtrot
3 Jethro Tull Songs From The Wood
3 King Crimson Thrak
3 Yes Relayer
2 Dixie Dregs, The What If
2 Emerson Lake & Palmer Brain Salad Surgery
2 Gryphon Red Queen To Gryphon Three
2 Jethro Tull A Passion Play
2 King Crimson Discipline
