"anutha live appearance of the PHP's wha had been MIA for quite some time. A nice sort of mini concert, with Daevid in fine form as the comedian here---"why am I so vague". Features Daevid, Pip Pyle, Didier, Gilli, Steffi Sharpstrings, Keith da Missile and Twink. OK, if you liked Gong, YOU will like this, go on--try, try--I'll try :-) PHP 46"

Gong - 'Live On TV,1990' (Code 90)

"Just when you think to the very best of your knowledge, you might have nearly all the legit Gong releases,up pops another title that you never even knew existed. Think I may've have seen this title in a Border's Books & Music store before, but I can't be sure. This eleven track CD was lifted off a UK television show, called Bedrock. Almost as good as their '25th Birthday Party' 2-CD (see my review). Tracks here that make for great listening pleasure are "I've Been Stoned Before", "Pot Head Pixies", the out-there "Inner Vision", one of my personal favorites "I Am Your Animal" (isn't that on the first Gong album?), "Flying Teacup" and "I Am You". Line-up: Daevid Allen - guitar&vocals, Gilli Smyth - space whisper & vocals, Steffy Sharpstrings - guitar, Didier Malherbe-sax&flute and Twink (Pink Fairies and early Pretty Things member)- synth&keyboards. Didn't see a drummer listed. Worthwhile cosmic rock title to seek out a copy of."
