Title: Three Piece Suite
Release Date: 2017
Genre: Rock, Prog Rock
Artist: Gentle Giant
Titled Three Piece Suite, the Steven Wilson-mixed compilation features material from the band’s first three albums: 1970’s Gentle Giant, 1971’s Acquiring The Taste and 1972’s Three Friends.
Also included is the commercially unreleased song Freedom’s Child that was taken from the first recording sessions with legendary producer Tony Visconti, who was behind the desk for the band’s first two records.
Visconti recalls: “I was a very optimistic young man in 1970 – I thought music like theirs would save the world from mediocrity. I couldn’t wait to sink my teeth in it. “I championed their cause by becoming sympathetic to the point where I temporarily joined the band for both albums. I modified their arrangements and pulled off some stunning audio effects that gave their sound more depth and immediacy. “The band knew I was on their side. I remember there being a great feeling of camaraderie during the sessions.”
Explaining the remixes, Wilson adds: “I used Logic as the software and Universal Audio plug-ins, which provide emulations of classic analog outboard effects, channel strips and old mixing desks. “I used these tools to clean things up and bring out some more clarity, detail and definition in some of the instrumental interplay.” He adds: “There was never a question of trying to outdo the original mixes, but offer different perspectives on them.”
