A 2025 reimagining - re-mixed and remastered - of 1977’s Playing The Fool, an album that captured Gentle Giant at the peak of its live performance prowess.
 
Produced by Dan Bornemark, The Complete Live Experience captures the full scope of the band’s artistry as it was meant to be heard, including restored in-between-song commentary and authentic venue ambience. The release features the full original setlist, plus three unreleased tracks (Interview, Timing and Ray Shulman’s solo violin feature). 
 
A 2CD/Blu-Ray edition with 96/24 Stereo, 5.1, over 90 minutes of newly created visuals, and Dolby Atmos, this release gives fans the ultimate Gentle Giant experience as never before.
 
Includes double sided poster and exclusive booklet with photos and band interviews.
