Album
Shamal is the sixth studio album released under the name Gong and was released by Virgin Records on 13 February 1976 The album, produced by Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason was recorded in December 1975. The album was recorded by a unique line-up refereed to later as Shamal-Gong. It is usually regarded as a transitional album between Daevid Allen's incarnation of the band and the Pierre Moerlen-led fusion line-up of the late 1970s. Reviewing the album for the website Sputnikmusic. Shamal is, for the most part, a progressive rock album, half vocal, half instrumental. Its most accessible tune, the opening Wingful of Eyes, had the potential for airplay if only it hadn't been so lengthy. Penned by Mike Howlett, his not-so-great-but-appealing vocal style and lyrics will grow on you, given the opportunity. Bambooji, mostly instrumental, opens with Didier Malherbe's flute, which at times gives this tune an Asian sound. Percussion and flute dominate and yield a Scottish feeling as well. Shamal is a music studio album recording by GONG Canterbury SceneProgressive Rock released in 1975 on cd, lp, vinyl andor cassette. Shamal is a GREAT Gong's album. The instruments are perfectly balanced to produce impressive jazzy progressive rock pieces. Shamal album. Just better. The album was written and recorded without the group's founder member Daevid Allen, and consequently sounds different, with fewer of the hippie-flavoured eccentricities of the previous albums. Also, guitarist Steve Hillage and synth playervocalist Miquette Giraudy left the band before recording began and only appeared on it as guests. The album was produced by Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason. Текст песни: Deep - deep within you In a secret place Deep - deep within you Everything you want to know Name Gong. Album Name Shamal.
