So what happened after the first Gentle Giant  album?  I wonder, did Kerry 
Minnear just decide the M300 was "too much  trouble" or was there some other 
"modern" new keyboard that came along at the  time and replaced it in his vast 
setup?


Dear All,
 
With a band that can play that many instruments (including violins and  
cellos) it would seem they used 'tron where it made sense. Imagine 3 Friends  with 
M300.
 
When I saw them live however no 'tron...

PS: For some good concert footage of GG try "Giant on the box" (DVD),  
footage of various television stuff from Germany, USA, Italy and weird bit from  
Szcene74.
No 'tron again - Clav, Wurly, Hammond and MiniMoog - hardly  vast...
