Description

GILES, GILES & FRIPP The Cheerful Insanity Of Giles, Giles &Fripp | The Songs (A long-overdue reappraisal of this cult1968 Decca debut, The Cheerful Insanity of Giles, Giles &Fripp now appears for the first time in a standalonesongs-only edition, remastered in 2025 to remove thespoken word segments and present the material as acontinuous musical statement. The result is a delightfullyeccentric blend of late-’60s British psychedelia, baroque pop,and folk whimsy, spotlighting early guitar work from apre-King Crimson Robert Fripp. Remastered for CD by AlexR. Mundy at DGM, this edition restores the album’smusical flow while adding 6 bonus tracks, includingseveral featuring future Crimson member Ian McDonald.Quirky, melodic, and oddly beautiful, this version allows thesongs to shine on their own terms, revealing a hidden gem ofthe psychedelic era. Jewel case with booklet insert, factorysealed).
