"Time To Kill" sits on Free Hand, the seventh studio album from British progressive rockers Gentle Giant, released in 1975 as their first for Chrysalis everywhere except the US and Canada, where Capitol put it out. The record reined in some of the knotty dissonance of The Power and the Glory in favor of a friendlier, more commercial sound, a band of prog tinkerers loosening their collars a notch.

Kerry Minnear and Derek Shulman split the lead vocals, and Minnear stacks up the keyboards: piano, electric piano, Hammond organ and Minimoog. Gary Green plays electric guitar, Ray Shulman bass and John Weathers drums. Minnear wrote it with the two Shulmans, Garry Martin engineered, and Paul Northfield assisted.
