Label: Voiceprint - Cat No. VP281CD

Some of this CD comes from a MOTHER GONG coast to coast U.S. tour in 1991, mainly solo, with supports to Big Brother and Holding Company and Bob Dylan. In Denver, they met Tom Burns, well-known jazz connaisseur with a jazz emporium and record label, Tapestry who put out this album in U.S.A.. Both from the tour and the studio (Spring Studio, Melbourne), the tracks were culled from improvisations, or in MOTHER GONG speak..... "spontaneous compositions", generally woven around the atmospheres of Gilli's poems.
