That "Gong" bootleg posted earlier in this thread is very impressive.

Holy shit!

The version of "Then Comes Dudley" on Gong is making my head spin; it's vertigo inducing at the right volume.

i dont love gong so much because:
- there's no mac
- songs from blue aren't so good

they're better live than recorded, and brendan murphy is a fine drummer.

They had already kicked Jim Kimball out when Gong was recorded I'm pretty sure

he was, and if you actually listened to "gong" brendan murphy is introduced after playing the hell out of one of those "blue" songs.

nah, 'cause "thumbscrews," "blueshot," "inflicted by hounds," and "cold water" all rule. oh, and "bad guy" isn't bad either. and there's a couple other tracks off "blue" whose names escape me that are pretty good.

from blue: "soft damage", "happy snakes"

i love very much "blue shot" off shot too, but i don't thing that last two albums are great like liar or goat.
