Description
Reissue on vinyl of the timeless 2014 album from Gong. I See You is both timeless and timely, a welcome antidote to an increasingly homogenised musical mainstream. Tracks such as ‘This Revolution’, a spoken piece which name-checks Gil Scott-Heron and picks up on the vibe of his ‘The Revolution Will Not Be Televised’, articulates the kind of concerns and theories that have always inspired Daevid Allen and informed the Gong worldview, contrasts with the ferocious inter-stellar Funk of ‘You See Me’, which has been live favourite since its release. ‘Thank You’ is a heavy slab of Psychedelic Blues, whilst ‘Shakti Yoni Dingo Virgin’ is a moody, melodic instrumental piece that serves to illustrate the immense musical firepower and musical diversity of Gong.
