Wow, that was cool! And what a great thing to hear they listened to U.K. That means that they knew perfectly well what was going on in ...The UK at that moment, because the first album of Eddie Jobson, John Wetton, Bill Bruford and Allan Holdsworth was released in the Spring of 1978. I never heard HTM was influenced by UK, but when you know Crafty Hands and the first UK-album are among my favorite albums of progressive jazz-rock (or jazzy progressive rock) from the moment they were released, it's clear this is not just a coincidence.

Thanks for posting (added on the main page). Interesting to hear HTM speak during the 70's and that they where inspired by these bands, U.K i didn't know of either as their influence. The Yes influence is what i believe known, but you cant hear it in the music right!?

Right. Last week I bought two remasters from Gentle Giant. Both Free Hand and In'terview were released again, this time with a DVD-Audio which contains the original 4.1 surround mix. Listening to these albums again gives you a good idea why HtM were influenced by them too. Especially Free Hand has certain sounds (mainly keyboards), that you can hear too on the first HtM.
