GONG - Expresso II (1978)

The Article has images
2008-04-08 17:14:39 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
Expresso II looks like a natural follow-up to the previous Gazeuse! album, which had been issued in US as Expresso (I guess the Yanks did not like the French title so decided to name it after the opening track). We are still in the deep jazz-rock territory and the percussion trio (Mireille Bauer, Pierre and Benoit Moerlen) is still musically...

...Expresso II, it has al all-star guest cast of Taylor and Lockwood (again), the returning Malherbe but Stevie Winwood and Mike Oldfield. Actually I suspect some of the tracks on this album being recorded during the Expresso II recording sessions The surprising (for Gong) hard-blues rocking tracks (both written by Moerlen and outsider...

GONG - Live Floating Anarchy 1977 (1978) [rated 3/5 by Sean Trane]

2008-01-09 04:50:19 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...Expresso II would be the last one named that way before Moerlens gang would use Pierre Moerlens Gong. So most likely Daevid achieved his goal and probably partly due to this album. Outside his beloved Gilly, there is no-one else from the Gong history and this album is the link between Here And Now and the Planet. But if the album does not...

...Expresso. Sooo Second Wind was recorded in late 88, and its a little surprising that there was still a public for this kind of music. Personally I wasnt paying attention back then, and probably thankfully so, because chances are that I wouldnt be as objective than if I discovered it in the new millennium, which is the case Coming with an...

...Expresso II) are Lozaga (guitars) and Lemer (keyboards) and the sound and songwriting on TITK dont have a 70s feel, but a much more synthesised 80s production. And those who read me regularly know that this is no good news. A bit like the 80s version of Mahavishnu, Gong uses too much of the days latest technology, which causes TITK to sound...
