Love these guys; I just listened to my "Giant" cd recently.

This is a great track, but I didn't recognize it as it's not on either of their two studio albums. A bit of research on Amazon indicates it was the b-side of a 1986 single, and showed up in live form on their "Hypnobeat Live" release.

Do you know of any other cds this song appears on?

One of my favorite bands.

"Why" is a bonus track on Wooden Foot Cops on the Highway.

Giant falls in my top 50 of all time, Wooden Foot Cops is not quite as good but a solid cd nontheless. "Why" is not on my copy Wooden Cops?


I guess they reformed a few years ago ,but never made it state side.

I'm a fan too. I liked Giant a lot. I wish they put out more material. For me, they fall into that category of bands which were brilliant but short lived (The Wonder Stuff also comes to mind).
