Album Notes & Community Reviews
Featuring recordings from the Rainbow Theatre and other UK venues, this album highlights the former Gong guitarist's distinctive, eco-spiritual approach to space rock. Backed by a virtuosic band, Hillage delivers cascading, synthesized guitar textures that bridge Canterbury-scene technicality with the emerging electronic sensibilities of the late 70s.
