And there's more. I have a vinyl edition of the record. Daevid Allen is listed here as Dingo Virgin, whereas Didier Malherbe is named Bloomdido Glad de Brass.

Yep, Miquette Grady is Bambaloni and Gilli is Shakti.
Trendsetter win!

The search for nonexistent perfection.

On the line-up for Gong's You, we have the following...

  • - Daevid Allen / vocals, glissando guitar
  • - Mireille Bauer / percussion
  • - Tim Blake / Moog & EMS synths, Mellotron
  • - Steve Hillage / lead guitar
  • - Mike Howlett / bass guitar
  • - Didier Malherbe / saxes, flute, vocals
  • - Benoît Moerlen / percussion
  • - Pierre Moerlen / drums, percussion
  • - Gilli Smyth / wee voices, chorus
  • - Shakti Yoni / poem & space whispers
the album itself lists the last two as
  •  - Shakti Yoni / Poems and Space Whisper
  •  - Bambaloni Yoni /  Wee Voices & Chourousings
...now I was under the impression that Shakti Yoni was Gilli Smyth and Bamboloni Yoni was Miquette Giraudy - (could any Gong experts correct me if I've got that wrong)
 
so shouldn't our version of the line up read as:
  • - Miquette Giraudy / wee voices, chorus
  • - Gilli Smyth  / poem & space whispers
 
What?
