Brobdingnagian Fairy Tales

Okay, not quite that big, but as we were contemplating the title, Fairy Tales from Brobdingnag, we hit a snare. "Brobdingnag" is a place in Jonathan Swift's novel, Gulliver's Travels. "Brobdingnagian" is an adjective in the dictionary meaning "big." By calling the CD Fairy Tales from Brobdingnag, we're effectively saying the CD is filled with fairy tales from this mystical land which is not the case.

So we decided on a CD name change. The new, slightly modified title is Brobdingnagian Fairy Tales.
