Customer Review of The Power and the Glory
 Fairly good release from the Giant
This album, their sixth, was the first to represent what I'd call their "middle period" sound. It differs from their first period (more progressive and varied) and is not simpler and more straightforward like their late period of music. So this probably represents Giant Giant as most fans would think of them. Most of the songs are good, though the album overall is not quite as good as the previous album (In a Glass House), nor the following one (Free Hand). But this is definitely an album that Gentle Giant fans need in their collection. Apparently this album has been one of the best selling GG albums in America, if not the best selling. Unfortunately, just like the vinyl release, the title song `Power and the Glory' is not on included on this CD release. I had the song on a compilation record years ago, and it is really good. I'm not sure why it keeps getting left behind. It would have made a lot of sense to include it with the other songs.
Hard to 'get into' but well worth the effort
This was one of the last Gentle Giant CDs i bought, and i'm glad. If i had walked in and picked this CD up before any of the others, i may not have given it that second or third listen. I struggled through the first track Proclamation. It seemed to me a lot 'busier' than most the Gentle Giant songs i had heard before. And then came track two, So Sincere. Oh boy, this song just annoyed me. As the rest of the CD played on and eventually finished, i was left with a kind of bad taste in my mouth. As another reviewer states below, keyboards play a more prominent role on this album, and it took some getting used too. So i played it again, and again, and again and again. And again! Boy, does it grow on you! Now, it's probably one of my most played CDs in my collection, though, as the 4 star rating i gave it indicates, it's not my favourite GG cd. I just seem to be in the mood to listen to it more often than with their other albums. If you haven't heard Gentle Giant before, it's probably best you don't start here. Get one of their 'easier' to get into CDs, like Octopus, Three Friends & Acquiring the Taste.
 Gentle Giant's Power & Glory
1974's "The Power And The Glory" was the closest Gentle Giant ever got to mainstream success, as it remains their only album to make it into the US Top 50. It is also their masterpiece. After five albums of mostly intricate progressive rock, Gentle Giant simplified things *just a bit* for "The Power And The Glory," making an album that still contained the classic Gentle Giant prog rock sound of yor, but also had a refreshing, slightly more accessible, mainstream feel at the same time. Giving the listener the best of both worlds, the band came up with their greatest album to date. Several GG classics on this one, including "Proclamation" and "So Sincere," the very beautiful "Aspirations" and "No God's A Man," and the fun "Playing The Game." The band sound truly inspired on this one, their performances outstanding. "The Power And The Glory" is Gentle Giant at their very best.
