Newly remixed and remastered by Grammy Award-winning producer Eber Pinheiro with Gentle Giant’s Derek Shulman, this Madfish edition brings fresh depth and separation to one of progressive rock’s most ambitious albums while preserving the character that has made it a favourite since 1973.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn A Glass House was the first Gentle Giant album made after the departure of Phil Shulman, leaving the group as a five-piece without reducing its musical scale. The remaining members were accomplished multi-instrumentalists, drawing on guitars, keyboards, violin, cello, saxophone, vibraphone, percussion and more. That range is heard immediately in “The Runaway”, which moves through tense rhythmic patterns, vocal counterpoint and dramatic shifts in texture. “An Inmate’s Lullaby” turns tuned percussion into something eerie and intimate, while “Way Of Life” combines muscular rock passages with intricate ensemble writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second side continues the album’s refusal to settle into a single mood. “Experience” is dense and theatrical, “A Reunion” offers a brief chamber-like pause, and the title track draws the record’s ideas together in a powerful finale. This edition also retains “Index”, the closing sound collage associated with the original LP presentation. The complexity is never merely decorative: changing time signatures and unusual instrumentation reinforce an album concerned with confinement, identity and the fragile structures people build around themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePressed on heavyweight black vinyl, the release is housed in faithful reproduction packaging featuring the celebrated clear-window artwork. That physical design has always been part of the album’s identity, making this version particularly appealing to collectors who value both sound and presentation. For listeners interested in progressive rock at its most inventive, In A Glass House remains essential: technically dazzling, compositionally bold and full of details that reward repeated listening.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Madfish","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58374896255350,"sku":"SMALP1358","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/6450\/6005\/files\/inaglasshouse.webp?v=1785503103","url":"https:\/\/www.stickyblacktarmac.com\/products\/gentle-giant-in-a-glass-house-180g-black-vinyl","provider":"Sticky Black Tarmac","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
