    Album Review:

    'Bigger Giants' is a re-release of the hard-to-find 1985 EP 'Giants'. The original had 6 songs and was never released as a CD on its own; you could get it on cassette and vinyl. However there is a CD version of 'Friends' that includes 5 of the 6 songs from this EP - good luck finding it. The reason this is "Bigger" is that 6 additional tracks are added including a long version of "Happy Boy". These are nice to have but I doubt any are better than the original 6.
