Mixing rock, jazz & psychedelia with elements of mysticism and hippie- based surrealism, all laced with a far-out sense of humour, the group's music, along with its communal lifestyle & fascination with things Eastern, epitomised the hippy ideal of the day. Now in their 55th year, Gong is still on the road & preparing for the reissue of the acclaimed live release High Above The Subterranea Club 2000 as a CD/DVD set with a 12-page booklet housed in a digi-pack. Featuring a unique performance of the band's internet broadcast recorded at the Subterranea Club London on April 6th 2000, it captures the favour of the exciting, unpredictable nature of Gong's spacey yet tight improvisation, the quality of their audience rapport, their famed musical absurdity & even the essence of their strange mythical element. Celebrating 20 years since the original release, the DVD disc features the full show including 3 additional tracks not featured on the audio CD (Flute Salad, Oily Way and You Can't Kill Me) & also features an interview with Gong's visionary leader Daevid Allen.
