4.0 out of 5 stars
Gong - 'Live At Sheffield,1974' (New Rose) 4 1/2 stars, August 1, 2005
This review is from: Live at Sheffield 1974 (Audio CD)
First off,please do keep in mind this import CD may be tough to locate a copy of.Nearly as outstanding as it's companion disc 'Live In Paris:Bataclan 1973'(see my review).Sound quality couldn't be better.Most memorable tracks are the eleven-minute "Crystal Gnome","Mister Pyxie",Tim Blake's "Deep In The Sky","Flying Teapot" and their somewhat obnoxious "You Can't Kill Me".The last tune is from a Glastonbury,1989 gig "Titicaca" where I guess Gilli Smyth provides the vocals and Daevid Allen plays acoustic guitar.Nice little folk ditty.Smyth is listed in the credits but I didn't hear her very much during this archive show.Line-up:Allen-guitar&vocals,Smyth-space whispers,Didier Malherbe-sax&flute,Tim Blake-synth,Steve Hillage-guitar,Mike Howlett-bass and Pierre Moerlen-drums.A must-have.
