There are so many niche labels for so many niche subgenres of unusual rock offshoots that began to develop in the early 1970s beneath the surface that one can hardly keep track of them, and perhaps the challenge of labeling means that it is easy for fans of one label can lose track of bands they would like from another label despite sharing so much artistic DNA. Consider Gong. Regardless of how one labels them, they would sound as at home in Canterbury as in the France/Belgium zeuhl scene, or

This is a stunning album! In my opinion one of Gongs very best after their performance at the Glastonbury Fayre a few years earlier.

CD,s are CD,s what can I say, Perfect, good value for money.
| | 2.0 out of 5 stars 1971 | 2020-10-29
A product of the legacy of 1960s psychedelic movement with comparisons to Pink Floyd in their Syd Barrett lineup and Captain Beefheart. Dissonance, noise, confusion and elements of psychological shaping this album has funny moments and seems to dip into the surreal and bizarre. But not one you'd play on a first date unless of course you both came across it at the same time. The echt album named after tasty French cheese is likely to be of minimal airplay use presently. How can you name it?

Gong hanno rappresentato con David Allen in primis, una delle tante eccellenze nel panorama di fine anni '60 e primi '70, quando la sperimentazione psichedelica era un terreno inesplorato fino ad allora se non dalla letteratura hippy made in USA. Li ho sempre ascoltati con interesse, e spesso trovandovi spunti e collegamenti con tendenze musicali precedenti quali la Scuola di Canterbury da cui sono poi si sono plasmati gruppi di straordinaria eccellenza in quel periodo in cui tutto si
| | 5.0 out of 5 stars Quintessential Gong right from the beginning | 2020-02-27
Considering that this album was recorded at the height of the French student riots in 1968 and released in 1971, it sound as unique and fresh now as it did when I first heard it sometime in the mid to late 1970's. Yes, I'm that old (pushing 60 now) and this album is 10 years younger than that, for its release. All the elements that Gong are renowned for are here from the start and I can guarantee that there's nothing else quite like it from that dim and distant era. Give it a listen
| | 5,0 su 5 stelle Ottima ristampa gatefold | 2020-01-06
Canterbury prog Rock/space rock. Album che da inizio alla mitologia gong, con Daevid Allen alla chitarra. Lato A con un sound psicadelico, mentre il lato B , più musicale che, si avvicina alla seguente iconica triologia. Bellissima ristampa gatefold, con inserti dei testi. Ottima incisione, album arrivato in ottimo condizioni, spedizione prime sempre al top.

Always loved this album. Loved Gong throughout their career (loved seeing Daevid Allen back with the band presenting Gong2032 nine years ago!), but for me, this is their real gem. Yes: the trilogy is grand. Yes: the solo Allen LPs were fine. Yes that Dashiell Hedayat LP was great - Planet Gong too! But this little peach surpasses them all, in my book. I think this is the seventh copy I've owned over the years. Probably won't be the last. Nice Insert and presentation (though

En matière de rock, il existe des disques intemporels. Ils auraient pu être enregistrés hier, aujourd'hui ou demain, peu importe, ils cultivent un certain classicisme de l'idiome. Et puis il y a aussi des disques qui définissent une époque et la cristallisent, l'illustrent, se révélant un parfait document de celle-ci.

This album is just FUN! Brings back memories of youth. I started listening to Gong when Flying Teapot was released. Then to my amazement I went on to pick this one up, amazement because this was music you couldn't listen to on AM or most FM. I'm sure there were probably some college radio stations who played this, just not in my neck o' the woods. I like this entire album as I did with Flying Teapot. My favorite tunes are "I've Bin Stone Before", "I Am Your

Edizione curata, vinile di buona qualità. Per apprezzare l'ascolto degli ultimissimi solchi si consiglia di disabilitare la funzione di sollevamento automatico a fine disco, pena una interruzione precoce del segnale sonoro. Quindi giradischi con funzione "manuale" per gustarsi il bel "loop" finale. Dicevo edizione curata, ma dei 4 inserti con testi e foto è presente un doppione, mancando per fortuna quello non importante relativo al quarantennale della casa discografica

Gong, in any of its manifestations, isn't for everyone, but when the Daevid Allen-founded band was really hitting its 'Pataphysical/lysergic groove, it was capable of conjuring real magic, and this collection, defined by the defiant "You Can't Kill Me" as much as it is by the absurdist hippy-dippy stuff, is peak stuff. The music is companionably trippy (having Pip Pyle on drums helps), the humor works, and the whole vibe is unique and kind of enchanting.

Am Freitag, dem 13.03.2015 wurde diese wunderbar remasterte und liebevoll gestaltete Ausgabe des ersten Albums aus dem Planet Gong Kosmos veröffentlicht. Am Freitag, dem 13.03.2015 verabschiedete sich Daevid Allen, Gründer und Mastermind von Gong im Alter von 77 Jahren von unserem Planeten und machte sich auf die Reise zum Planeten Gong, wobei er sicher von den Pothead Pixies begleitet wird. Dies Album ist die Blaupause für alles, wofür man Gong heute kennt, psychedelische angejazzte virtuose

I've been a Gong fan since the first time I heard them. I can't say that Camembert Electrique is as good as any of the albums in the so called " Gong Trilogy. But it still has all of the same feeling as those recordings. I say get it.
| | A window on the early 70's, great music, great fun. | 2014-11-16
An album that was originally sold for 50P by Virgin as part of a promo to get the band noticed. That was in 1974 I believe. They had already been noticed by a devoted few which regarded them as something of a cult, the Flying Teapot trilogy saw to that. Some great tracks including "And you tried so hard to get there" a lovely telling refrain, and many others. Try it and see, this was the real heart of the seventies, tripped out hippies trying to keep the movement going and having a

Ich muss zugeben, Gong war mir lange Jahre nie so geheuer. Was man alles von ihnen gehört (also jetzt nicht die Musik) und gelesen hatte. Als ich aber mal Steve Hillage ausgeliehen bekommen hatte und danach mitbekam, er war auch einige Zeit bei Gong, dachte ich mir, probier mal Gong. Ich muss wieder zugeben, es hat was. Vor allen die Zeit bis Mitte der 70iger. Wenn ich in meiner alten Camembert-CD (Charly Records von '96) rein sehe; den Bauernhof (?) mit sechs Gestalten (+ Kind). Junge

It is very Avant Garde, so I can only presume my mate was smoking something better than I was. It is kind of ok, very much an album of taste (you will either like it or not), some good, some not so and some indifferent. I gave it 3 stars because it might grow on me..........?

A product of the legacy of 1960s psychedelic movement with comparisons to Pink Floyd in their Syd Barrett lineup and Captain Beefheart. Dissonance, noise, confusion and elements of psychological shaping this album has funny moments and seems to dip into the surreal and bizarre. But not one you'd play on a first date unless of course you both came across it at the same time. The echt album named after tasty French cheese is likely to be of minimal airplay use presently. How can you name it?

Où est la Re-masterisation !!!!!!!!!! Inutile d' investir dans ce "produit" de piètre qualité auditive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Préférez

What is Trustami

Trustami regularly scans the internet for new reviews and collect them in one place, in order to make them available to interested parties at a glance.

We want to make it as easy as possible for every internet user to look up products. Instead of relying on just one source, we provide a single point of contact to get easily all the reviews on a product.

Trustami does not generate new reviews and stays independent in order to make the internet more transparent. We automatically search on popular internet platforms and websites to find reviews and identify products. Our claim here is to provide a helpful set of product information that anyone can rely on. The aggregation of product data is done as good as possible and may include multiple versions of one product.

Trustami was created as a project of the Technical University of Berlin (TUB) with the aim of making the internet more trustworthy. Research in the field of "Social Media Analytics & Big Data" at the Chair of Information and Communication Management (IKM) provided a first prototype that enabled the collection of reputation data. With further development and funding Trustami became an independent spin-off.
