Phil Sutcliffe, Sounds, 1 May 1976
Well, we've had the wheel, sliced bread, the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and now Big Phil Sutcliffe's copped the newie...Yep, it's Gentle Giant's eighth album. Mr. Shulman relaxes happy in the knowledge that his new record will keep a certain Sounds writer drooling ecstatically for months to come.
