Acid Mothers Gong - 'Live In Nagoya' (Vivo)

"Nicely, no make that SUPERBLY done live performance of a collaboration between members of Acid Mothers Temple and Gong. Who ever thought this would make such a killer ensemble? I don't mean to sound like Mr. Obvious here but on 'Live In Nagoya', you essentially get like two actual gigs 'tied' into one by Acid Mothers and Gong. I, for one really appreciate the way each player gives everyone else their space. All seven tracks here take your mind into another world but tunes I dig so much, that I rarely find myself going very long without playing them are the sixteen-minute cosmic "Ho Ho Ho", the Gong masterpiece "Glissade Gillisade", the ATM staple "Lady Lemonade" and the jamming "Hari Balmy Bom Riff". Line-up: Daevid Allen-glissango guitar&vocals, Gilli Smyth-space whisper, Kawabata Makoto-guitar, Tsuyama Atsusha-bass, Higashi Hiroshi-synthesizer&guitar, Josh Pollock-guitar and Yoshida Tatsuya (of Ruins)-drums. Highly and I do mean HIGHLY recommended."
