Gong - 'Est Mort' (Celluloid/dist. by Voiceprint)

(5 out of 5 stars)
"Top notch seventy-minute recording from a gig that took place at the Hippodrome in Paris on May 28,1977 during a one-off reunion performance.Features the classic Gong line-up of Allen,Smyth,Blake,Hillage,Howlett,Malherbe and Pyle.Includes many of the old Gong favorites,like "I've Been Stoned Before","Radio Gnome",the exceptionally done "Zero The Hero&The Witch's Spell","Flute Salad,"Master Builder" and the celestial "Sprinkling Of The Clouds".This CD will be giving some Gong fans a wet dream.These ten tracks are arguably the BEST live versions of these songs I've ever heard.That's probably because guitarist Steve Hillage and synthesiser wiz Tim Blake are giving 110%.Highly recommended."
