Angel's Egg | Digipack

PART 2 OF THE RADIO GNOME INVISIBLE TRILOGY WITH 2015 REMASTER NOW A MID-PRICE CD 'this is their holy grail, uncarved block and philosopher's stone rolled into one' Classic Rock (UK) Gong's quintessential trilogy comprised of the albums 'Flying Teapot', 'Angels Egg' and 'You' are reissued worldwide by BYG / Charly Records, remastered in 2015 from the original tapes by Nick Robbins at Soundmastering Studios. 'Angels Egg' is not your usual progressive rock album. Very quirky, with many, mostly brief compositions, the album is a tad less spacy than 'Flying Teapot', with just a few psychedelic-inspired lyrics, and is very technically adept. This eclectic composition travels through several movements and time changes and comes across as a perpetually progressing piece. The album sees the classic Gong line-up in full swing with primo Daevid Allen vocals and lyrics, and Steve Hillage's first full inclusion to the band bearing fruit with musical quality akin to his solo work. This classic Gong trilogy is released on mid-price digipak CDs featuring remastered audio and 8-page booklets. The current line-up, which features Kavus Torabi (Knifeworld) following the passing of founder Daevid Allen, is enjoying the success and worldwide tour of 2016 album 'Rejoice! I'm Dead!' and have revealed the first of their 2019 festival appearances at the UK's HRH Prog.
