• Track Listing

Double vinyl LP pressing housed in gatefold jacket. Few albums in Gong's discography capture the band's whimsical, irreverent take on life's complexities & the enigma of death as vividly as 2014's 'I See You'. Now, the legendary psychedelic collective mark a decade since the release with a brand-new 10th Anniversary Edition on Kscope. This milestone reissue celebrates not only the existential beauty of Gong's music, but also the enduring legacy of frontman & visionary Daevid Allen, whose boundless creativity continues to resonate with fans worldwide. 'I See You' was the final studio album featuring Daevid Allen before his passing in 2015 & stands as a testament to his vibrant spirit & revolutionary ethos. Infused with the anarchic energy that defined Gong's origins in the 1968 Paris counterculture movement, 'I See You' takes it's place as one of the finest gems in the band's heroic catalogue. The album has been remixed from the original multi-track recordings by Frank Byng, producer & sound engineer of the last four Gong albums. For 'I See You', Allen was joined by his son Orlando Allen on drums & members of the current line-up: guitarist & frontman Kavus Torabi (formerly of Cardiacs), horn player Ian East, Dave Sturt (the sonic manipulator) on bass & the Brazilian Fabio Golfetti, weaving his own lysergic patterns on guitar. The result is an impressive, multi-layered & irrepressible world, populated with a series of dazzling musical gems - melodically rich, lyrically engaging & musically refreshed. Continues to carry the torch ignited by Daevid Allen, recently completing extensive U.S. & European tours in late 2024, with more live shows already lined up for 2025.
