Wer Gentle Giant noch aus den 1970ern kennt weiß, dass hier ein ganz dickes musikalisches Brett gebohrt wird. Der Gesang, das Gitarrenspiel - alles auf höchstem Niveau und begeisternd. Tolle Idee die verschiedenen Stücke in einem akustischen Medley zusammenzufassen. 👍😊
I'm in love with you guys! Family from over seas. Wow, just wow. All my favorite bands. You are amazing! So much love to you all ❤ appreciate you. From America 🇺🇸
STUNNING! I saw GG do this live and it was flawless. Best live band I have ever seen. This is mind-boggling to see a cover of this amazing song! Great choice of a challenging song to perform!!
Never heard a GG rendition that is equal to the original, until now - sensational! Fabulous performances, recording and video. Great to know that their music is still alive and inspiring others.
I've listened back to the His Last Voyage section a dozen times in a row now. Can't get enough of it. It would be great to hear a full rendition of that track, you do it so beautifully.
What I love about you two is you're not afraid to take on the most ambitious projects. Your musicianship is unquestioned. And then your vocals and arrangements, as well as the tuning on the acapella part, is stunning!
Hallo Martin, thanks a big-lot for your own very great talent and really harmonious creativity, for example with that arrangement very refined you (and Melanie with all the other musicians, much wonderful) offer to us profound purity in perfect counterpoint 'a-cappella', sublimated by the receptivity of the frequencies/vibrations that you all send us..... Persevere wisely by continuing to offer us your celestial and phantasmagoric MUSICAL CREATIONS, it being reductive to simply call them songs! See you soon (l do hope) and a brotherly hug to everybody from ltaly. Namāste 🕉
Wow. Wonderful to see and hear talented musicians prepared to spend the time and skill to perform very tricky Gentle Giant music. And to do it so very well. A triumph!
I absolutely agree with you. Then l also find Martin is a superlative guitarist, with a clean sound production and an excellent compoitional refinement ☯️
Such a nice piece of music! As many times before, I am not familiar with the original here but really love this version. I will try and check out the Original as well since it must be good. But however this may be, this one here is one of my favorites on the rainbow tree album. 🥰
Ihr habt's geschafft; jetzt *muss* ich mir das Original und weitere Musik vom freundlichen Grüßen anhören, ich *habe schlicht keine andere Wahl!* Nicht, weil mir eure Version nicht gefiele, im Gegenteil, sondern weil es noch neugierig macht und begierig, diese Wissenslücke zu schließen. 🤓 Verdientermaßen seid ihr nun mit diesem Video in meiner _“Fine Music”_ Playlist. 😉
I'm grateful that young musicians around the world are breathing new life into Gentle Giant's music through creative versions like this. There are many amazing GG covers on UA-cam, and your Free Hand medley is one of the best I've heard. (It reminds me, in spirit, of GG's own "Excerpts from Octopus" that they used to play in concerts.) Beautifully done. Thank you!
Phenomenal cover of IMHO one of the most difficult to cover Prog Bands ever. These guys were brilliant and so is your cover version. Congrats my friends and greets from Brazil!
Utterly wonderful. for me, many Gentle Giant songs are somewhat lessened by the overly raucous voice of Mr Schulman (though in its correct context, that voice is a treat). This redition was (again, for me) just about perfect.
I introduced GG to my brother way back in the 70's. He listened to them more than myself after that. This made me think of him. Well done. Loved your creation.
As an old GG fans who has seen them a few times and still love them over 45 years later, I loved every minute of your interpretation. There were many fine moments, but the vocal arrangements on “His Last Voyage” with the soprano notes over top were beautiful and I was touched. Bravo and thank you.
Free Hand is one of my very favourites from Gentle Giant. It's not easy music and you must like a challenge. You were certainly up for the challenge and did a magnificent version.
This medley is absolutely scrumptious! As always a masterful take on Prog royalty, Gentle Giant. Just purchased the "Rainbow Tree" as a Christmas present to myself:) And begging Martin and Melanie to come back to Progstock!! 🤟🙏
I will contact them and get down on my knees!! Can't wait til the cd arrives. Hope you will put out some vinyl someday. Btw...that Lowden sounds incredible🪐@@MartinSchnella
Having seen Gentle Giant live several times during the Free Hand/Power and the Glory days, and finding the experience deeply fulfilling as a musician and music lover, this medley captures the essence of Gentle Giant beautifully.

Dang... gave me some Jethro Tull feeling at the first minutes. Incredible good video overall. Vocal skills on top. Who made the "tenor" voice as 4th voice in between?

Another ones of medieval Gentle Giant songs could be covered by our "three friends" 😍

I still have this album. I love your rendition guys. At 70 we still aren't too old to listen fantastic covers of old favourites. Great job.
So creatively put together and beautifully done! Bravo!
Thank you so much David 😊
Gentle Giant is extraordinary - and you nailed it !
Thank you ☺️ Glad to read your words
Just unbelievable. I got the chance to hear this before the release and was just blown away. But this video is destined to be a classic. Bravo

Free Hand is one of my very favourites from Gentle Giant. It's not easy music and you must like a challenge. You were certainly up for the challenge and did a magnificent version.
Thank you very much! Yes, it was really challenging. It was so exciting to create this Version ☺️
Fire-eating awesome. Amazing. Goosebumps.
