sorta gongish but gee whiz.......2006-03-08

gong's history by the late seventies is far too disparate to say that any album released was an official gong album--at least, not as long as you think official gong is the classic angel's egg trilogy. and this album only adds to the confusion. the only "original" gong member i can safely say is on this album is daevid allen, and if you've heard daevid's solo stuff, that should be enough to tell you that . . . well, that's not enough. this is a good album. this is well worth owning if you are a gong combatant. but this is not angel's egg. and, gee whiz, if you're looking for any of that awful jazz-prog gong, certainly don't buy this. more than anything, this is daevid allen re-evaluating gong for 1977, which, i guess, means tighter chords, less jamming, less spaciness and just less fun. if you need a live gong jones, get LIVE ETC, it is THE best live gong release i've stumbled across. this one's ok. (heckfire, it's got opium for the people and that's why i got it but i'm a freakin nerd.) oh, if you're a freakin nerd, buy it for opium for the people. um, other notes, i got the charly/ decal edition. god knows there's probably others. who knows who owns gong's songs by now.

Gong - 'Floating Anarchy Live 1977' (Spalax)import CD.......2003-12-19

This fabulous record was recorded at a festival gig in 1977 with what was(at the time)the very last ever performance of the original line-up of Gong.Must admit that 'Floating...' is just such a FUN disc to listen to.I was impressed with the way out intro "Psychological Overture" and "Stone Innoc Frankenstein".The only tune I recognized right off hand was Daevid Allen's "Opium For The People" where one can truly experience the guru's silliness.The closing song is worth the admission price itself.It's a fifteen minute epic that MUST be heard to be believed,"Allez Ali Baba Black Sheep Have You Any Bull Sh*t:Mama Maya Mantram".Yes,this REALLY is a song title.A must have for all fans of cosmic,hippie and jam rock.

Product Description

The Gong sounds & vibrations trigger a meditation-contemplation state in which we have the opportunity to relinquish control of the mind. Negativity and chaos are suspended, irregularity and resistance are cleared, and the mind, body, and soul are reset to a state of synchrony and alignment, allowing us to connect with the infinite self.

Gong - 'Mystery&History Of ...' (Thunderbolt).......2005-12-28

This is it,the one-disc pressing I was talking about in my review right below THIS one.Total of twenty-one tracks of bits and pieces by none other than the glissando guru Daevid Allen himself and crew.For old school Gong fans only.

mysteriously badly recorded.......2003-06-25

As much as I love Gong, I can't recommend this. It's really a collection of odds and ends, many of them very poorly recorded indeed. When I say "odds and ends," I really mean it; for example, the version of "Tried So Hard" here sounds as if it was recorded by a cassette off a television speaker. And do you really need re-recordings of the little gnome voice saying "Gong! La planete gong!" from the beginning of Camembert Electrique?

Customer Reviews:

Better than vinyl version........1999-08-05

I first heard this recording around '86 or '87 on vinyl. Longstory short, I got this record, among others, from an English 'Chap'who raved about it. I dug it too and have been looking for it on CD ever since. Thanks Amazon. This music is to me, kind of a fusion of psychedelia and punk. Sort of a transitional period for both the musicians and the audience.
