I had the pleasure of seeing GG in concert several times. All were magnificent shows...the time changes, the interplay and musicianship were always fantastic. Even had the pleasure of meeting the band the first time I saw them. Thanx for sharing these,
Al

The Power and The Glory!
Há mais de uma década, desta banda que pesa toneladas,
me deparei com este LP, ao qual nao conseguia assimilar,
mas nao coseguia largar!
Após 2 semanas, quase decretando o fim,
uma luz pairou no horizonte dos meus ouvidos e,
anos depois após os demais LPs,
eis que posso dizer, modestamente por mim,
ainda é o Único GIANT que levo comigo, por enquanto,
pois aprendi que devo destinar tempos
para decretar os outros...rs''')))
