Giant Promise Land and the John Schlitt connection

[cndfogie]

I have had this advance release for a little while and have come to realize that The Giant song 'Save Me' are the same song the verses are rewritten but the chorus is pretty much the same. I think it's funny that Dann did alot of playing/writing, etc on that album and here nearly 15 years later this song is recycled. Jut thought u Petheads would want to check that song out.

That's funny. Thanks for uploading, Hudson. I've never heard something like this before. The music is almost exactly the same as John's version.

Apparently they didn't like John's lyrics and decided to write new lyrics. David and Dann Huff originally wrote the music for John's song anyway.

The Swine 1996 version is lyrically and vocally superior (not bias at all)

What the hay..... ugh! this is just WRONG!

Danny, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree!

Thanks for the link, Hudson!

Giant now has a new line-up:


Mike Brignardello - Bass
David Huff - Drums
Terry Brock - Volcas
John Rooth - Guitars

INMHO they could change the band's name. Giant never will be Giant without the guitars and volcasl of Dann Huff. The stuff that I have hears is far way from what they were. Now they became a common band.

The version of the song in Unfit for Swine is superior. John is much better that Terry Brock and the production is much better too.
