Bill´s drumming doesn´t sound so/that (?) different from Pip Pyle´s. I think the problem with GONG and Bill (William Bruford) was a personal one. For all the Gong albums Pierre Moerlen ´s drum playin´style fited best to the band (musically and personally). Who is the recent drum player with Gong?

@stevevegetable Your right his playing sticks out like a sore thumb. Hes got no swing. Stiff as a board.

I hope you resigned immediately..from the original band and the new imaginary one

I think I remember a poem by Daevid Allen for Bruford which ended with Bruford's exclamation: I could never be in your guys group. You guys don't think like I do.

Pierre Moerlen was more suited for Gong -music IMO

@ksjoyjespeace Yeah. I just finished Bruford's book. He doesn't speak to highly of this phase in his career, even taking a jab or two at Daevid Allen and his musical and spiritual philosophy. But hey, I guess Planet Gong isn't for everybody.
