Derek Shulman and John Weathers never looked back, and maybe that’s why Gentle Giant’s music still stares you down, especially in the reimagined version of Playing the Fool. In this extensive conversation, Derek and John revisit their time in one of prog rock’s greatest groups with more laughter than lament, and a quiet sense, that they got it exactly right.
