Source: Dime torrent download > wav > retracked & cut edit (on Prostitute Poem) > flac. This is a retracked reseed of the first US Gong show (unsigned info...sorry...thanks to seeder!). The torrent on the tracker is missing Mother Gong's set. Here are both Mother Gong and N.Y. Gong's sets. There was a cut on "Prostitute Poem". I edited the cut so that it now plays seamlessly. I renounced a similar edit for the cut between "People Poem" and "Ooby Scooby" as the roll fades out and in making it more difficult than a rough cut to be edited. Date and venue confirmed by Calyx website (Zu House - Zu Manifestival). This show was Gong Family's first American emission (excluding Steve Hillage's 1977 US tour). Other acts were Blinding Headache, Theoretical Girls, Frith/Cutler/Blegvad/Swan and a panel discussing progressive music. . Maclen Jun 3rd 2008 - torrent shared on Dimeadozen. Please keep it lossless.
