A Sprinkling Of Clouds (RIP Daevid Allen)





Okay, this is perhaps a Gong record which better exemplifies the Steve Hillage element but it's my favourite Gong thing and the track I play most now and the Gong track that has stayed with me for the 25+ (Crikey!) years since I heard it... without this, lots of the music of my youth would have been impossible to hear... Must have seen Gong ten times or more over the years (often accidentally) and they suffuse the area(s) where I spent most of my time as a kid. Gong are in the air...

Plus, the first time I met Kemper Norton and heard his actual name I thought he was a reincarnation of some kind (I was a little wasted) and... I wasn't wrong, really.

RIP
