Gentle Giant "Interview" (2023 Steven Wilson Remix)

Gentle Giant | "Interview" | 2023 Steven Wilson Remix
Available: bit.ly/3VodrLB
“Interview” was the eighth studio recorded album of Gentle Giant and was released April 23rd 1976. The line up on the album is Derek Shulman, Ray Shulman, Gary Green, Kerry Minnear and John Weathers. The album also has the participation of ‘Sounds’ writer Phil Sutcliffe as the ‘interviewer’.
The band had completed a year of non stop touring throughout Europe and North America promoting the highly successful “Free Hand” album. Despite having no real down time the band felt inclined to write and record the follow up to “Free Hand” without having any time to reflect on its success. This may have influenced both the direction and attitude of the album, hence its somewhat cynical concept. It poked a little satirical fun at the state of the music industry and dissected the way a group’s relationship with the rock press could either help or hinder their career. Stylistically it continued in the vein of their preceding seventh studio album, “Free Hand” released in the year before, in 1975. Featuring a spoken cameo from Sounds writer Phil Sutcliffe, the shape-shifting funk-rock of the title track “Interview” lampooned clichéd rock ‘n’ roll journalism.
Award winning producer and musician Steven Wilson has remixed “Interview” in Dolby Atmos and 5.1 surround sound. The Porcupine Tree guitarist has long been a fan of the band, noting them as a primary influence on his own work. Wilson’s painstaking attention to detail, deep respect for the source material and keen tonal range make the album sound as fresh today as it did on first release.
In addition to the 2023 remixes, the original 1976 stereo mix, original 1976 quad mix, instrumental mixes, and custom visuals for each track are all included in the CD/Blu-ray version.
This video has been remastered and synced to the Steven Wilson Remix. Originally filmed at ITN House in 1976.

Minnear's piano solo is inimitable. Part honky-tonk blues, part Monk, part Stravinsky. Truly underrated keyboardist.

[@yergrannyonbongos5422]

Brings to mind Conlon Nancarrow's pieces for player piano!

[@SonicWizKid_Kates]

@@yergrannyonbongos5422 Omigod I never made that link but you're so right!

[@rathcooleposse]

I can even here a bit of cockney joanna in there

[@ryn8349]

His solo is he played it very slowed down, then they sped the tape up to correct pitch, which gives it a slightly de-tuned honky tonk sound

[@Cybergodless]

He wasn't underrated, he only happened to play on a not-so-popular, but BRLLLIANT band.

[@fernandoperdomomusic]

John Weathers and Ray Shulman were one of the best rhythm sections of all time.. not just for their sheer talent and groove but for the amazing sound of their instruments... That gold sparkle ludwig kit and precision bass were absolutely fine tuned machines of prog warfare!

[@ProblemProductionsLD]

They really were. And with very little in the way of drama or ego within the band, especially once Pugwash was in and Phil had left (no offence to Phil or any of Pugwash's predecessors by any means, they were all fab but obviously lineup changes tend to involve tension etc) and they entered the Free Hand era and so forth, it really shows that all the members genuinely had a wonderful time with each other and appreciated each other's talents and skills. John and Ray bounced off each other so well, but the others did too. Their energy at live concerts was so infectious, big grins, smiles, jokes and good times all round. There was no limelight hogging, no nonsense, just a bunch of guys all passionate about music in different ways giving every note their best. I wish I could have seen them in person!

[@ProblemProductionsLD]

@Tony Komarytska I'd imagine that contemporary comparisons were somewhat uncommon and not always accurate. With GG being made of of musicians with a very broad spectrum of individual influences (for example Kerry Minnear being classically trained, Gary Green being a blues guitarist, Ray being a jazz fan, etc) and therefore a multitude of different styles forming their sound, causing even different songs on the same album to appear to be totally different genres to a layman, so comparisons would have probably seemed a little difficult and some I've seen from articles and posters of the time were definitely amusing. With the benefit of hindsight and the internet it's much easier to ring-fence or quantify things but I can understand why at the time they'd have seemed very unusual. Sometimes when supporting other artists on tour they'd be literally booed off stage! And yet other headliners' fans roared and cheered for GG even more than the act they'd presumably paid to see. A weird one for sure - and part of what I like about them. They were utterly unafraid (especially from Free Hand onwards) to do what they wanted, not what others felt they should.

[@Narpets2112]

@ProblemProductionsLD To be fair, they were bood offstage by Black Sabbath fans, which I've seen give the Outlaws a rude response (it was probably one guy armed with rolls of toilet paper and impeccable aim-he hit Huey's microphone twice with two shots. Huey didn't come back the second time but they were doing their encore by then)

[@fernandoperdomomusic]

@@Narpets2112 Black Sabbath fans are not a good musical barometer...

[@Bob-of-Zoid]

@tonykomarytska3934 This band had them all as audience members! Everyone from David Bowie, over Pink Floyd to Frank Zappa would go to their shows and marvel at their talent!

[@feijohfabiano]

The best band of all time🤤

confirmed.

[@freddiesoverbite6162]

I wholeheartedly concur

[@peterduff3082]

I am 100% with you guys !

[@Rowenband]

My daughters sometimes say to me that, amongst all prog bands Gentle Giant is the only that has not been marked by the flow of time.

[@axolotl8694]

could you expand on that? that's a really interesting comment. I think I agree but it's complicated.

[@Rowenband]

@@axolotl8694 I'm not a great musician, but for what I get it's manly due to the short songs, the interesting complex and mathematic compositions, and essentially to the fact they don't use chord layering of chords that envelop all the music in most prog bands. It's mainly pure piano, guitar and real instruments, not much synthesized sounds and effects.

[@StratsRUs]

Purity of sound and the beautiful flow and dynamic of the songs.

[@Bob-of-Zoid]

Your daughters are musically literate and wise in that regard! Gentle Giant is a hard band to digest for people raised on top 40, mindless lyrics and repetition, and with little to no musical skill or understanding. Even emotionally these cats are pretty freaking deep, and it requires the utmost attention and re-listening to capture every detail they have going on all at once.🤯

[@milesknightestrada3286]

I have been listening for about two months, and I can proudly say that this is, and will for ever be, my favourite band. So far ahead of everyone else in every respect, even the immortal Frank Zappa. Each track, when heard ten times over, still feels as though you are hearing it for the first time. Truly, Gentle Giant is not merely music, but the auditory equivalent of living literature. Incredible! Miraculous, even!!!

[@GaetanoDiStefano_ct]

❤

[@janellkingman3991]

wait ??? you are comparing GG to Frank Zappa -- this disqualifies ALL of your comments -- bwahahahaha !!! hilarious -- I think you ate too much yellow snow !!!!!

Ray's part is perfect. it's funky, offbeat, and super aggressive.

[@KlausSgroi]

Like almost all Ray Shulman bass parts. The guy was a musical genius.

[@AquaticDot]

I want a partner that looks at me the way Derek looks at Kerry during his solos.

[@oldman1031]

Amazing band! Been a fan since the seventies. Three friends, In a Glass House, Free Hand... and that just scratches the surface! R.I.P. Ray♥️🙏☮️🕉️

[@AdamqK]

This was my first Gentle Giant album. I was only 16, and didn't get it at first, but it slowly grew on me and, as I went back and collected their older work, I became fully aware of their genius. I am so looking forward to this reissue. RIP Ray Shulman, one of the most amazingly talented musicians ever.

[@martijnvaassen]

The only thing wrong with this video is that it needs more shots of Gary Green!

[@greyblenaut]

I gotta say its not stated enough that for his time, the fact that Gary was able to do all these unison runs of Kerry's part and all those off beat syncopated guitar chords throughout pretty much their entire career was pretty incredible. He has this level of precision thats way ahead of its time. Glad he's getting a bit more love nowadays

[@tommyrawlings3046]

Green was always the most overlooked guy in the band!

[@berthazopp1]

If anyone out there is curious to what they are whispering , they are repeating “why do you ask, surely you know it” and “having no direction, any other way.” I was lucky to see this wonderfully talented band several times back in the day!

[@loucontino4804]

Pugwash is criminally underrated.

[@1359401]

Absolutely agree

[@paulcartwright6739]

I can't think of many main drummers who can play 5 instruments including guitar

[@trainguy7276]

I really hope that one of these days, Steven can find the In A Glass House tapes (that's my favorite album from these guys), but I'm super thrilled that he's showing love for Interview. A criminally underrated album indeed.

[@eddiecousinsjr]

Ray's bass in the middle funk/bar room piano section is really clear in this mix, he sounds like Jaco doing the octave line in this with a bit of Bootsy on the single notes - he really was a tasty bass player - one of the very best.

[@1359401]

Ray is my hero and biggest inspiration from the greatest band ever in all of music easily without a doubt the most obscenely criminally underrated bassist ever besides him being a legendary composer and multi instrumentalist/backing vocalist RIP maestro RAY

[@stevedotwood]

Got this link via Just JP's channel. What a band! I discovered them only a few years back. I've been a prog enthusiast for years. I bought all of their albums recently. The most daring of all 70s prog bands.

[@ADVENT_MarkPtak]

Video looks fantastic! (A few audio issues for me: Missing the delay on the end of the vocal in "baaaaand," (2:52). Also thought the final fadeout was a little sloppy...and different. Would've preferred the Hammond to last throughout the Rhodes part at the end, as on the original... Plus a few other minor things that only a GG goon like me would care about - but great to hear this anyway!) 👍 Edit: One thing I DID like: Was to hear that final piano stab at the end of the piano solo (3:56) which was apparently cut off in the original - due to a tape splice, I would guess. That was cool to hear for the first time.

[@Hermannblöd]

[@martinboere3274]

I remember that after the release of "Interview" reviews told that Gentle Giant were clearly passed their creative peak. Another proof of music critics' total and stunning incompetence, as the band was at the top of their game. Personally I would have preferred further development on basis of compositions such as "Design" and "Another Show". However, the band decided to take new paths with Interview's successor "The Missing Piece".

[@ADVENT_MarkPtak]

I still say it sounds like JPW is singing "Put on - your pants..." at 2:40. 😁

[@Jiuhuashan]

That's hilarious. Now I can't unhear it.

SW always tries to work using the original mix and improving that for today's standards. I can notice mostly Weathers drums are more prominent on the mix, punchier. I think Ray's bass fits a little better with the whole band. It seems that Derek's voice, Green's guitar and Minnear's keyboards are mostly left untouched with some tweaks

[@ak47gg91]

No chance of a remix of 'Glass House', sadly - unless someone manages to unearth the master tapes. The masters have been missing for many years, and are thought to have been lost.

[@Dremth]

Is the alto part in the third verse (@ 2:40 "What are your plans...") actually sung by John Weathers on the album? I always thought it was Kerry Minnear that did those vocals. Was it just showing him doing that part in the video because Minnear didn't usually do lead vocals live? (Edit: According to Wikipedia, it is originally sung by Weathers. Today I learned!) Either way, that part is my favorite part of the song, and those vocals sound so crisp and full in this mix. The separation between the instruments is also phenomenal in this mix. Minnear's keys were a little overpowering in the original mix compared to the other parts, but here the keys are simultaneous clearer and appropriately spaced from the other parts, especially the drums and guitar. If this track is anything to go by, this album's mix might be the best Steven Wilson mix yet. I can hear tons of stuff in this mix that I never noticed before. For anyone that can't hear it, listen to both versions side by side and it should be quite evident. ALSO RIP RAY! Truly one of the greatest of all time. You live forever in these masterpieces!
