Gentle Giant: five new interviews with Shulman, Green, Weathers and Minnear

It's Psychedelic Baby! Magazine has published a substantial interview feature with the surviving members of Gentle Giant — Derek Shulman, Gary Green, John Weathers and Kerry Minnear. Conducted by Dereck Higgins between 2022 and 2025, the five video conversations cover the band's origins in Simon Dupree and the Big Sound, the writing process behind their intricate arrangements, the touring years and the difficult decisions that led to their split. The members discuss their classical and jazz upbringing, how they divided compositional duties between Ray Shulman and Kerry Minnear, and why they never chased the limelight despite their technical virtuosity. The feature arrives as a single written piece compiling all five interviews, offering a rare collective portrait of one of progressive rock's most uncompromising ensembles.
