Ok.. listening without pot. Still, one of the best prog albums ever. thank you for uploading.
im surprised im still alive thanks for otherwold stuff man
Great melodic and precious album revealing the pomp and gold of a bygone era ! S'il y a un album qui soit le filigrane élevé de l'avant-garde, alors c'est celui-ci. L'équivalent musical d'une peinture de Salvador Dali, GONG peint un paysage où toutes les horloges ont fondues, la logique s'est transformée en un téléphone à homard et toute tentative de conventionalité a été délibérément obscurcie par le hasard apparent. A l’écoute, ce qui semble être des dissonances éparpillées sont en fait sculptures denses, hautement travaillées de polyrythmies et de thèmes musicaux qui s'accordent avec la poésie absurde ludique mais désespérée des compositeurs. Cette éclatante architecture sonore est aussi réservée aux néophytes de bonne volonté désirant déchiffrer des territoires inconnus 😉
This is without doubt Gong's masterpiece . . the musicianship and pure creativity on this particular album is extraordinary . .
I think this is one of the few records where side 2 is even better than side 1.
I mean… Other side of the sky, Sold to the Highest Buddha and Prostitute Poem are nice tunes.. But Oily Way/Inner Temple/Outer Temple, I Never Glid Before and Eat the Phone Book Coda are really really fantastic!!
RIP Daevid and Gilly!
MAMMA MIA!
AWESOMELY TALENTED MUSICIANS …LET ALONE THE GENIUS….RIP DAEVID ALLEN
Me parece que el tiempo de las canciones es según van apareciendo en el álbum. Como están cronometradas aquí no se puede ir directamente a una canción en particular. Gracias.
these shitty adverts do not belong here
fuck Charly Records..
OFFICIAL GONG BAND MEMBERS STATEMENT
We, the surviving members of Gong, do not support BYG/Charly Records upcoming reissue of the Radio Gnome trilogy.
None of the surviving members of the lineups that created those recordings were ever signed to BYG or Charly Records.
The truth is that immediately before the making of Flying Teapot in January 1973, the band learned that Daevid Allen's once record company – BYG Records (also known as Promodisc) – had gone bust, it's Paris office stripped bare, no phones working. The band was abandoned at the Manor Studios at the start of recording the album. Virgin – at the time just a chain of record stores and The Manor studios – was about to launch their record label.
Faced with an unpaid recording bill, they decided to cut their losses and release Flying Teapot as the second release on the new Virgin Records label. That's the true story.
The booklet advertised as accompanying the Charly/BYG Release is full of untruths, lies and falsehoods claiming to represent Charly and BYG Records as some sort of poor victim of Virgin's wickedness. The truth is that none of the musicians on those recordings has ever received a penny of royalty payments for the Charly/BYG releases, or even a statement. This is understandable because we NEVER signed to BYG or Charly Records as Gong.
Meanwhile, forty years later, we still receive statements from Virgin and, for those of us who cleared our advances, royalty payments, even though Virgin has since been sold to EMI and now is owned by Universal Records.
We know and can confirm as 100% corroborated fact that the Original Masters of these albums reside in the Virgin Records Archive, and that Charly has never at any time been given access to them, so Charly's claim to have used the Original Masters is false.
Charly has been brazenly abusing our rights as artists for decades. None of us are rich or powerful enough to sue them. All we can do is to let you, our lovely Gong fans, know that we do not support this release. We will be supporting a new boxed set to be released by Universal in a few months with our full collaboration.

Love Gong, but why monetise the album!!! Not very hippie….
a fine effort. however…the follow-up album "you" blows "angel`s egg" clear out of the water. just sayin`…
Until you are clean, the devil won't forget you.
When I first heard, thought it a bit absurd, started to really listen, brilliant interpretations started to glisten
that cover basicalyy says Angels 666- not that im complaining….
