Daevid AllenがSoftmachineを離れFranceに渡って現地調達(?)で
作ったバンドがGongである。一説によるとDragの関係でイギリスに再入国出来なくなったからだとか? AllenはもともとAusieですから、不良外国人だとして英国には入れなかったのかも。勿論このLPはGong1st Albumという事です。サイケでキャッチーなこのLPも買い!!

Gongを立ち上げたばかりの頃FranceのBYGレーベルからリリースされたLP。Gongの文字は見当たらないが音楽的にもGongと言ってもよい内容である。GongのメンバーとSoftsの盟友Robert Wyatt, Spooky Toothの主要人物Gary Wright, Stone The CrowsのSoulful女声歌手Maggie Bellなどが参加している。
傑作!!

3部作の後、AllenはGongをPierre Moerlen に譲り渡したかのように一人マヨルカ島に渡ってソロワークを始めた。
GongはPierre Moerlen's Gong と Daevid Allen's Gongと分裂したような扱いとなる。
Pierre MoerlenはVocalless のJazz Rock方向へと舵を切り、行って一定の評価を得る。
