David Mar Group: Members Posts: 457 Joined: Oct. 2001 Posted: May 27 2004, 05:51 I was wondering if 'Pierre Moerlen's Gong Live' is available on CD, if so, what is it's catalogue no.? Also I'd like to know who plays which instrument, as my CD only lists the band and the guests, but not which instruments nor which tracks the guests play on! I've just got 'Downwind'  - it's on Arista 251138 if you want to get it on CD - it's dated at coming out in 1992, though it also lists 1979 too. Back to top
