It's a 6 song set: Salmon Song, Unzipping The Zype, Hurdy Gurdy Man, 1988 Activator, Unidentified (Flying Being), It's All Too Much. The band were whip tight on this, with the rhythm section of McKenzie and Anderson especially explosive. Hillage was in good voice and on fire on guitar. You'll treasure his solos!
The CD includes 2 bonus tracks:Hurdy Gurdy Glissando and Electrick Gypsies - both from 1977. The DVD adds videos from The Old Grey Whistle Test for Radio and Light In The Sky. In addition the DVD includes a fascinating interview with Hillage and Giraudy circa 2007. You already know that you need this!
