☀️ Hey there, cosmic travellers! 🛸✨” Buckle up your space boots and get ready to blast off into the psychedelic universe of sound, because we're diving deep into the celestial vibes of Spacemen 3, a band that shot onto the scene in 1982 like a comet streaking across the night sky. 😆 🪐 Picture this: minimalist instrumentation swirling around you like stardust, with repetitive structures that pull you into an immersive listening experience. It feels like you're drifting in a nebula while beautiful music tickles your ears. Their albums, such as The Perfect Prescription (1987) and Playing with Fire (1989), are shining examples of their signature style—each track is a portal to another dimension where time bends and reality melts away. 👽
🌕 Now, let’s take a little trip back in time to August 2, 1986. 🌙 Imagine yourself in The Enterprise Pub at Chalk Farm station in London, grooving to the sounds of Spacemen 3—featuring the legendary Pete "Sonic Boom" Kember, Jason "Spaceman" Pierce, Pete "Bassman" Bain, and Sterling "Rosco" Roswell. They were the cosmic cherry on top of a bill that included other stellar acts like The Instinks, The Jackals, and Kill Ugly Pop. Can you dig it? This performance was not just a concert; it was an astral projection into the heart of rock ‘n’ roll!🎉🌌  It's actually where the shoegaze era began. ⚛ So grab your tie-dye shirts and peace signs because Spacemen 3 is here to take you on a wild ride through the galaxy of sound!🚀

The earlier Gong albums I would call Psychedelic, and later ones more on the jazz fusion/ jazz rock side.

Gong's You, Angel's Egg and Flying Teapot are all great and applicable to this topic.  Whatever you call You, You is out of this world!

Indeed!  They put the "rock" into "space rock!"  Clap

🌙 Imagine, my cosmic friends, combining the mind-bending riffs of Hawkwind with the mystical vibrations of Gong's ethereal language, all wrapped up in the raw, untamed energy of punk rock! What you get is a sonic explosion that is none other than the groovy soundscape of Here & Now.✨
Before embarking on their free tour in 1978, Here And Now had a serendipitous encounter with the legendary John Peel at an open-air gig in the magical realm of Meanwhile Gardens. 🌈✨ This cosmic connection led to a radiant recording session for his radio show, capturing the very essence and pulsating heart of Here And Now. The vibrations from this Peel session resonate through time and space, encapsulating their unique sound and spirit! 🚀💫
So, let your mind drift and your soul soar as you tune into this celestial harmony that transcends earthly boundaries! 🌠🌌

Good move , my favorite Gong's LP (With Live Gong issued on Virgin in ... 1975 I think and Continental Circus movie soundtrack, filmed in 1969/70 issued in 1972))

Fav track from You is still ' Isle of everywhere'

I have always been more impressed by their musical qualities than by their weirdo and wacky humor.

In the same genre I recommend the soundtrack of Jérôme Lapéroussaz 's movie Continental Circus.
No synths or sequencers at that time, just glissando guitar and effects..
This soaring music announcing the flying teapots but that accompanied a film about the world of the independent earthly speed bikers.
It is quite paradoxical isnt'it ?

Space rock bands I like a lot :

Ozric Tentacles ... always the same always different
Noden Ictus : Ozric's related space/transe stuff
Quantum Fantay : sort of Ozric made in Belgium
Ship of Fools : Do they still exist ?
Kosmogon : Mässan CD ( Nicklas Berg (from Anekdoten) project ) : like The tangerine dream I like ( Phaedra, Rubycon, Ricochet)
My Brother the Wind ; also a Niklas Berg 's project , great free form stuff
Causa Sui from Dannemark

By the way
we labelled this kind of music as Space rock but

Sounds are made of material longitudinal waves travelling through physical mater ( air but also water, solid and other gases than air)
In the void of space there is
..no atoms... no matter ... no waves
so sound doesn't travel at all in space

✨ We are so incredibly fortunate to have these bewitching footages of GonG! 🎶 💫
 Let's celebrate the cosmic vibes and the enchanting sounds that transport us to another dimension! 🚀🌈

✨ Cosmic wanderers, let's take a groovy ride back to the stellar year of 1972, when the celestial sounds from "UFO 2: Flying" still floated into our universe. That cosmic gem, released in October 1971, often lovingly referred to as just "UFO 2" or simply "Flying," is adorned with the enchanting subtitle Space Rock. 🚀✨ Can you dig it? This might just be the very first time we’ve ever heard the term "space rock" being tossed around in the space-filling substance called aether. 🌌 In those early days, UFOs were like heavyweights in the space-rock arena, bringing forth vibrations that resonated with the stars and planets. 🌠 So let’s give a warm galactic welcome to UFO during their brief space-rock era—it’s truly out of this world! 🗼French TV music programme Rock En Stock, 1972; great stuff indeed! 💫

I love Daevid Allen's Gong 1970-1974 + Shamal-Gong (not equally crazy 'bout the rest, I rather reach for Fish Rising over Gazeuze or Expresso II). You in particular is a desert island disc for me. A genuine trip and pyramid building masterpiece finale. But really I think all of Radio Gnome Invisible 1-3 is my favorite trilogy in all of the arts. Regardless of shape, form or medium.

-This 21 minute space rock-epic underneath is recorded in 1971 is (to my knowledge) the closest ever Gong* came to sound in studio compared to how they come across from all the old live clips I've seen. 


*I'm sure most of you know already, but in case some of You dont, this is peak era Gong in all but the name on the album cover:

Dashiell Hedayat: keyboards, guitar, tape, vocals, writer and performer
Daevid Allen: lead guitar
Didier Malherbe: Saxophone, flute, "water music"
Christian Tritsch: bass, acoustic guitar
Pip Pyle: Drums
Gilli Smyth: voice

Hi,

I'm not enjoying OT as much as I did 20 years ago. They kinda got a bit boring after John left, and Zia on the bass was not great ... just nice, but not very inventive or creative. When Brandi took over the bass, I thought it might be interesting, but she looked like she was still learning, and it was very basic for a while, and since then, the band has suffered. Basically it has gone slightly downhill, and not learned how to get creative and interesting ... probably too much Ed Wynne, and not enough anyone else. 

The family band idea was interesting, but I think it also hurt the creativity ... it became all Ed and while Silas has definitely gotten better, in the process I think that Brandi suffered, and it appears that their relationship took a hit ... not sure. 

The couple of shows on the net, are not that great. The bass player has the personality of a lamp post and the girl playing the flute, might be better, if they figured out how to make sure the flute can be heard ... and her dancing/prancing ... is ... well ... boring. 

I think that OT best days, are behind them, and very far. Still love them, but sadly the replayes of old material is not even exciting. It was cleaner with Brandi.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

🪐 Hailing from Sunderland, the vibrant port city nestled in Tyne and Wear, England, Mr. Quimby's Beard has been captivating audiences since their formation in 1983.✨ Over the years, this band has released three studio albums and one live album, showcasing their unique sound and artistic evolution. 🌀 They have performed countless gigs on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, often sharing the stage with legendary acts like Hawkwind. 🚀
This particular video was crafted by the talented member of Mr. Quimby's Beard, A.A. Pollard, who skillfully combined various video imagery of the band captured during numerous gigs and rehearsals. The music featured in this piece is drawn from their live album titled "Mr. Quimby's Beard—Shrouded in Mystery (live 2001)" 🌠🎶

Oh, if you want to dive deeper into the cosmic soundscape that was GonG in 1971 but live, just tune into the triple-LP concert album Glastonbury Fayre: Various Artists. 🌈💫 This magical collection captures the essence of a time when music was like a swirling vortex of colours and sounds, and one whole side is dedicated to the Gong's mind-bending jam titled "Glad Stoned Buried Fielding Flash & Fresh Fest Footprints In My Memory." 🎶🌿
Suddenly, during Gong's celestial set, there was even a power failure! But did that stop the cosmic travelers? No way! They soared back into the stratosphere, and the gig continued like a river flowing through a field of dreams. 🌊✨ Glastonbury Fayre was held at the same time as the summer solstice, with the Pyramid Stage sitting on the same ley line as Stonehenge and Glastonbury Abbey, and where free spirits danced naked in the mud, embracing Mother Earth and letting their souls trip out under the sun. 🌞🍃



And let's not forget about Hawkwind! 🚀 They graced this festival with their otherworldly presence too. Their unforgettable performance went immortalised on this album with their track "Silver Machine And Welcome," sending waves of spacey energy through every listener’s being. 🌠🔮



Then there also were the Grateful Dead, bringing an American country-version of "space rock" to life with "Dark Star," which stretches out for an epic 24 minutes! This track takes up one entire side of the Glastonbury Fayre album, inviting you to float away on its cosmic currents. 🌀🎸 So if you’re ready to embark on a journey through sound and spirit, grab that album and let it take you on a ride through time and space! ✌️🌌💖

🌙🔮 In the ethereal expanse of the early 2000s, a U.S. ensemble known as Secret Saucer emerged from the cosmic dust, weaving together the sonic threads of various luminary acts. 🚀✨ This interstellar collective is graced by the presence of Steve Taylor and Steve Hayes, two astral voyagers who had previously traversed the musical galaxies alongside legends like Nik Turner and Daevid Allen. 🛸
As they journey through soundscapes, Secret Saucer conjures a mesmerising fusion of analogue synthesisers and hypnotic rhythms, crafting an auditory experience that not only pays tribute to the revered realms of classic space rock but also boldly ventures into uncharted territories of sonic exploration. 🌌💫  
With each pulsating beat and swirling synth, Secret Saucer transports us to a dimension where melodies float like comets across a starry sky, igniting our imaginations and expanding our consciousness.🎆🌀🎇

Wow, just wow! 🌌✨ Watching Steve Hillage perform "Hurdy Gurdy Glissando" in this fascinating 1976 BBC footage feels like stepping into a time machine that transports you straight to the heart of the cosmic music revolution. 🌠🎶 The ethereal soundscapes he creates with his Stratocaster and Hillage's long-term partner Miquette Giraudy on hurdy-gurdy and Basil Brooks on modular synths are like waves of stardust cascading through the universe, inviting us to float along on an adventurous space-rock journey. 🚀🌈💫

Hi,

I'm glad to see this here. The Grateful Dead deserves to be mentioned on the history of "progressive" music, and while we concentrate on Echoes, CTTE and a few other things, some material like this one ... gets left behind, because it is American and not of English birth ... since they invented the world! Tongue

it's even sadder still that much of PA has gone to the "song" definition of "progressive" and "prog" and made the definition designed for the folks here, a bit left behind and ignored. Some of the materials/ideas mentioned in the definition exist in a lot of other musics out there, thus making the idea, of a guitar solo, redundant ... or the change of chords, even worse.

But extending a piece of music, and making it work, is something only the greats can do well, and The Grateful Dead deserve to be mentioned alongside of many of these ... besides one really important thing ... they didn't have to be super loud to get your attention, and that "solo" was not present by itself, so the guitarist looks like ... some dog out there! 

The design of most excellent music is not about the solo itself ... it's about that solo being a part of the whole thing and kinda working itself in and out, without the ego/media attention ... and the GD had that in abundance. 

Some bands were louder and noisier ... but The Grateful Dead gave meaning to the QUALITY of the music they played ... THEY HAD THE BEST SOUND SYSTEM OF ANY BAND OUT THERE. While others got louder, the GD got cleaner and prettier to enjoy ... now you know why so much of "pigprog" does not attract me at all ... you don't need the "solo", or the "attention", unless your music is far less valuable and important, and the loud part and solo makes it seem more important.

Also far out ... that GONG piece ... I have to get that CD now!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

From my current town of Kettering, the (now defunct) band 'Thee Telepaths' released 'The Velvet Night' in 2019. I found it at Rocket Records about a year after the stopped playing; Still sealed, creased and a little beaten on the sleeve but cheap enough to take a punt on. 
3 fuzzed-out, spacey suites with a 70's garage rock vibe, listed on their Bandcamp as the separate parts, but on the album sleeve just as 'Alpha Parts I-V (19:45), Epsilon Parts I-III (11:10), Delta Parts I-IV (11:09).'

Hey everyone! 🌌✨

I wanted to share a special moment from the space-rock history with you all. Here's incredible footage of Nik Turner's concert, which took place 30 years ago! 🎶🚀

As we reflect on his legacy, let's remember that this space-rock legend is now out there among the stars, exploring the cosmos he so passionately sang about. His music transcended earthly boundaries and took us on journeys through soundscapes filled with wonder and imagination. 🌠💫

Nik’s contributions to the world of music will forever resonate in our hearts and minds. Let's celebrate his life and artistry as he joins the celestial symphony above. Rest in power, Nik! Your spirit will always shine brightly in the universe. 🌟🌌

How you conduct your own threads is your business. But knowing that you've spent maybe an average of five minutes or something for each of these albums - the ratings of complete discographies in other peoples threads borders on spamming in my opinion. It's like postulating your opinion of a novel after having read the first, tenth, thirtieth, ninetieth and two hundredth page. You do as you please, but I think it's a little unfair to the creators and artists.

^ Contrary to popular belief, I've listened to all of those albums in full, including everything Hawkwind-related, everything Gong-related and everything Steven Wilson-related. Smile

It's only when I'm throwing polls together in my usual slipshod and haphazard manner that I don't have time to listen to the albums in full. Tongue
