An utterly necessary addition to any serious Eyeless in Gaza fan's collection, the 1989 collection Transience Blues collects stray tracks mostly originally released on the flip sides of singles and EPs from 1983 to 1986.

╝

For most bands, that description would translate to "failed experiments and songs not good enough to make it onto the albums," but during this period of Eyeless in Gaza's career, their B-sides were quite often more interesting than their A-sides.

╝

Intriguing miniatures like "Lilt of Music" and "Tell" have the same newfound interest in dynamics, melody, and arrangement as the duo's more commercial songs from the era, but they keep the experimental bent and interest in minimalism of their earlier records, making them more rewarding and satisfying than either the skeletal early singles or commercial-minded pop songs like "Back From the Rains.

╝

" Most importantly, the collection includes the relative rarity "Drumming the Beating Heart," an utterly gorgeous two-minute wonder consisting of nothing more than Martyn Bates' remarkably controlled (for him) lead vocal with the unexpected appearance of a church-like pipe organ along with Peter Becker's angelic harmony just over halfway through.

╝

It may well be Eyeless in Gaza's finest work, but several other tracks here are nearly as fascinating.

Officially the band's fifth full vinyl release, Rust Red September finds the group further moving away from the brusquer hooks of its earliest days to a calmer reflectiveness.

If anything, the duo also achieved a light, airy pop feeling with this album, slotting it alongside more successful sounds from the U.K. in the mid-'80s without actually breaking through or, on a happier thought, pandering to achieve such success.

Thuddingly pretentious album title aside, 1996's All Under Leaves Leaves of Life proves that Eyeless in Gaza did the right thing in reuniting in the mid-'90s.
♪
Less a rerun of the duo's older sounds than an interesting new juxtaposition of elements from throughout the first six years of their career, this album features the harsh electronics of the earliest Eyeless in Gaza singles ("Struck Like Jacob Marley" and "Fracture Track" are as noisy as anything they've ever done), the delicate, almost folkish minimalism of their best work ("Morning" and "Damning Yourself Broken," in particular, could be on Rust Red September), and the pop-oriented keyboards of their mid-'80s singles ("Answer Song and Dance," "Passing and Distance View").
♪
The twin highlights come at the end, with the gorgeous "Three Ships," a minimalist organ piece that recalls Terry Riley's A Rainbow in Curved Air, and "As Was," a lovely acoustic guitar and voice coda to a mysterious, intriguing album.

Gong - You (Radio Gnome Invisible, Pt 3) (74)

6 Perfect Mystery
7 The Isle of Everywhere
8 You Never Blow Yr Trip Forever

Conveying more advice from AP H.P., You emerges thematically as the third part in the Radio Gnome Invisible series, though not titled as such.

Overall a fair release, the album seems somewhat poorly planned and insubstantial, with brief tunes punctuated by several long jams.

Guitarist Steve Hillage's role in Gong had become quite prominent, to the point of overshadowing founding member Daevid Allen.

You marks Allen's last stand with the band, at least until his quasi-return many years later. The album opens with three light, ethereal pieces.

Among the short tunes, "Perfect Mystery" is the standout, a fun but very advanced jazz-oriented composition.

The lengthy, epic-like structures on the album are generally solid (though at times uninspired), jazz-tinged progressive rockers, with the instrumental "Isle of Everywhere" taking top billing.

Each piece features Pierre Moerlen's hot percussion, and each bandmember steps up front at one time or another.

The awkward moments occur in the final cut, the jazzy "You Never Blow Yr Trip Forever."

At times early in the song Allen's vocal presentation and lyrics seem at odds with music which dares to outdate him, making some of the most progressive music on the recording.

For their first album of new material in over 20 years, the real Gong (i.e., one led by Daevid Allen and containing a number of players from the classic '60s-'70s period) offer — well, much of what made them so popular in the first place.

There's an impish sense of humor to the lyrics, Gilli Smyth's deeply echoing space whisper, stunning sax and flute work from the criminally underrated Didier Malherbe, and plenty of trademark glissando guitar from Allen himself.

Goddesses are invoked, gnomes are mentioned, and rhubarb is eaten, among many other things.

Guitarist Steffi Sharpstrings fills what was Steve Hillage's role with plenty of post-punk energy, but really it all revolves around Allen's personality and some stunning music.

Time's been kind to Gong.

Their pioneering space rock ways found a home with the ambient crowd and their music shows they've listened to what's gone on and incorporated it into their sonic journey, which is part prog rock, part jazz, and part just out there. "Can

You: You Can," a live cut from 1992, with its wonderful improvisations, is a prime example, although even better is the long closer "Goddess Inovation/Om Riff," where they hammer to infinity and beyond.

Veteran Pip Pyle shows a light, steady touch on the drums, Allen is even more inventive than before, and the refusal to take themselves completely seriously keeps it floating along.

Having this band together before recording in the studio was obviously a good idea; they mesh perfectly, and it's good to have a classic back, energetic and full of ideas.
