We are heartbroken by the news that the time has come, It sucks that most of us (including myself) never got the chance to meet you in person, but regardless, you will always be in our hearts, and we wish you the safest most peaceful remaining six months that life have given you to enjoy. Indeed, enjoy those six months and live it to it's fullest, like there's no tomorrow. You have given us so much that you deserve more than that amount of time for yourself and your family. Eventually we will see you again in Planet Gong, and you will forever have our love and support. Farewell. Best Wishes, Kevin

Fanastic video! Whatever other music I've been into over the years, the magic of Gong has always been with me. Great musicianship, fun, spirituality, positive vibes and originality all in one unique package :-) Eccentric he may be by traditional standards, but Daevid is one of the most wise and together people I have ever had the fortune to come across in this mad world!

I got to spend a bunch of time with my Magick Brother and Mystic Sister ...Much later than this. In the 90s . Gilli and Daevid You both were amazing people to know. You helped my inner light be brighter. Gilli you were the warmest person I have ever met. Its hard to have to say "I miss you"

The classic lineup. Wish they were around during the video age to capture the color and weirdness of their shows. But we still have brilliant music. RIP Daevid Allen, brilliant genius.

a colleague of mine told me to listen to Gong. he recommended Angel's Egg. my god, i don't think that i have seen this many people this fucking high in under 10 minutes. i've just got to listen again. thanks Stu!

there will never be anyone like him again...a sad loss

I.have watched this piece of footage more than any other on KZread over the years.What I.wouldn't have given to live in their commune with them in France .lol

it is so rare to see alot of Gong video, so thank you for posting this. It is amazing to think that these guys have been around so long, and still, now sound so incredible. Music's best kept secret..
