Never existed a more progressive band, than Gentle Giant!!!! Well deserved. Congratulations!!!! Let's hear now one album.... my favourite that is Acquiring the Taste.

[@1ouncebird]

Congratulations to the boys in the band. They may have been together and touring and putting out albums for "ONLY" ten years but they created a lifetime of incredible listening pleasure and wonderful memories.

[@mikereiss4216]

I see what you did there.

[@MarcusVinicius-we2pg]

I was exposed to GG music in 1986.......Rio de janeiro/Brazil.I was 16 years old...I was already a Prog rock fan...Yes, VDGG, Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Genesis, ELP, F. Zappa, Focus, Magma....that kind of stuff...But GG always will be my favourite band ever!

[@kaponautas]

Congrats to the Giant! This band is the most unique and most fun band ever, and personally, my favorite band ever!

[@dgcmusi]

What an incredible band….no one before or after sounded like these guys…totally unique

[@nsgobbi]

The band I started to listen late in 1977 thru a college colleague, quickly looked after all their past discography and since then a single week hasn’t passed without listen and acquiring their taste more and more. Gratitude for their work.

[@donwandle4514]

My favorite prog group. Thanks for all your work, boys.

[@briank8136]

Well deserved, congrats. I was surprised at no mention of Gary Green, hope all is well with him and no friction with the band.

[@georgerobartes2008]

Gary Green has been busy but has produced some controversial non PC stuff as well as some great blues up until a couple of years ago . Not sure about John Weathers , drummers tend to burn themselves out physically . The band originally included Phil Schulman , the 3rd brother his present whereabouts totally unknown . The band was a heavy influence for a great pub band called 64 Spoons who were regulars at a mates pub in Chatham , the Tam O Shanter in the late 70s early 80s, fronted by Jako Jacsyk who we got to know very well and who had himself an amazing career until recently fronting King Crimson .

[@reidwhitton6248]

I think boys all get on just fine. They recently made a very funny video about the new remix of Interview coming out in June.

[@rtermini]

One of the greatest band in the world... period. Saw them live many times.

[@DimitrisVallis]

If we say "Progressive Rock". we mean Gentle Giant!

[@rolfzero]

They could have kept playing and composing for ever and ever and ever...

[@jupiterlegrand4817]

GG were THE greatest prog band, period. If I only had a time machine...

[@luigimeneghini8352]

La mia band preferita. Da sempre. Un amore per la loro musica che non finisce mai.

[@gianfrancodefrancesco7117]

Best deserved lifetime achievement award, because even if they played together for ten years only, they fulfilled our lifetime with the best prog music of the century 😘👏👏👏

[@Spencers7185]

Gentle Giant is truly the best band that has ever lived! She has created truly inspiring and wonderful music with 10 masterpieces in 11 years! All 5 are great musicians and multi-instrumentalists! There will probably never be a comparable band again! Thank you very much for your wonderful music! ❤️

[@amidazad4832]

Gentle Giant a bunch of genius irreplaceable musicians.

[@garyfogel]

Gentle Giant should live on forever! Play their music for your children: they will appreciate you for it!

[@alanconrad8490]

Creativity at its finest.....Mindboggling genius. Congratulations.

[@georgerobartes2008]

I bet you thought.....we couldn't do it !

Gentle Giant Forever 💖🎶

[@Omm3693]

I grew up a hippy kid in the 70s and 80s and heard all the great popular bands that i like and later i came across gentle Giant ,i think they are great ,i thought why are they not as big as the other big groups, they are as good as any.

[@mindjob]

They will never be duplicated

[@jimhardiman3836]

Great acceptance speech by Derek. Full of gratitude and humor and insight into what it was like to be in this ground breaking band. Compared to when Genesis was inducted into the RRHOf. Phil Collins just read a laundry list of thank yous. No insight or personal reflections. And Phil is usually a funny, upbeat guy. Very awkward. It's like they were embarrassed to be there.

[@1359401]

Agree with what you have said here although derek fumbled the ball and didnt acknowledge the rest of the band members. Dont get me wrong i love derek and gg is my favorite band. i think they are the greatest ever but that was kind of strange and not right.

[@jimhardiman3836]

@@1359401 possibly this was deliberate since the three on stage were the main creative force of GG. But it's a shame that he didn't mention the other members.

[@togfiado]

Phil Collins? The man who turned a terrific band into middle of the road mush? Don't get me started.....

[@jimhardiman3836]

@@togfiado I don't think you can lay this all at Phil's feet. Have you heard Mike And The Mechanics? Tony Banks put out some boring pop music on his solo albums. Even Peter Gabriel's solo material is pedestrian compared to early Genesis.

Congratulations gentlemen, and thanks beyond words. Cheers from Canada!

Simply the best ! Congratulations !

These guys were gods to me throughout the 70s.

Unreal how few people understand the levity of this bands legacy

[@Mr01081960]

I gentle giant sono il prog gente ❤️

[@neacsoundsystem]

well deserved!!! Legends!!!!

[@108grog]

Most unique prog band that I know. Zappa also one of a kind - I have a hard time calling him prog, but definitely progressive.

[@wz2001]

With all due respect where is the vinyl release of Civilian. It's now mid September and we're still waiting. Only the CD version and the MP3 appear to be available. Not that I would expect an answer.

[@artotavukciyan4937]

The broad on the side is saying “who the F are these old geezers’

[@janellkingman3991]

Orange should have hired a 3rd grader to set up the podium -- Minnear standing behind Derek - Ray standing there -- hmmnnn

[@stevedotwood]

Can you please move the logo from her face?

[@bargainbassist]

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. She’s quite easy on the eyes … during those moments I can actually see her.

[@proctopus1949]

Perfect video besides Matthew Wright.

[@wayfaerer320]

Where are John Weathers and Gary Green?

[@imagine9265]

Ten years 12 albums multiple instruments by the the members but not be recognized by the Rock n Roll Hall ?
