Bang a Gong
-
Artist:
Gong is a prog band that came out of Britain's Canterbury scene in the 1960s. It has morphed through many different incarnations through the years. Early versions of the band led by Daevid Allen were quite psychedelic. The band led by Pierre Moerlen in the 1970s (which recorded Gazeuse! and Expresso II) had a heavier prog and sometimes fusion sound. It's probably the heaviest damned sax, vibraphone, guitar band you'll ever here! Allan Holdsworth's guitar, together with Pierre Moerlen's percussion (marimba, vibraphone, etc.), make for a very different aesthetic from the early Gong.
