There is so much to enjoy on this album of many levels, with stunningly good tracks, that I cannot imagine any Gong devotee will be disappointed.

If this turns out to be daevid and Gilli's Gong swansong, and we hope and pray that it's not - what a way to bow out. I don't need to write about this album, the samples sing out for themselves, and I could have easily chosen almost any random minutes from the tracks and the quality would shine through.

Packaging is a didgipak affair with an illustrated 28 page booklet which the label call a 'media pack' - no I have no idea either what that is, but there's lots of it and it looks very stylish.

Flamedog Alien: beat/crash/kick/vocal - aka Orlando Allen {drums, vocals on 'The Eternal Wheel Spins'}

Unicorn Strut: bass & invisible operas - aka Dave Sturt {bass & computer samples}

Spiral K. Octoflash: crunchbox & scythe guitar - aka Kavus Tobabi {neoprog smart guitar}

Fabuloso Golfcart: winged guitars/glissando - aka Fabio Golfetti {guitars, old school psych solos & glissando}

Eastwinds i.e. Windows: saxo/flutes/lungs - aka Ian East {saxs, flute}

Dada Ali: bi-focal local vocals 'n' gliss - aka daevid allen {gliss guitar and vocals}

Special Guests:

Gilli Smyth {sprinkled space whisper}

    Weird, slightly archaic, but great! Really holds the distance, even if the tracklist is a bit failed, for instance the first piece which is no help at all to get in the mood.
