Playing the Fool

~ Release by Gentle Giant (see all versions of this release, 19 available)

Annotation

There's a cassette release with sort of the same track listing but slightly different track names (like those on one of the vinyl releases). Should probably be a separate release in NGS.

There's also a two-disc release with this as disc 1 and the album Civilian as disc 2 which would need to be entered in NGS.
