The long awaited
collaboration between Daevid Allen from legendary acid-heads GONG
& Makoto Kawabata / Cotton Casino from Japanese underground heroes ACID
MOTHERS TEMPLE & THE MELTING PARISO UFO. This is one long
collective improvisation recorded in Australia last year (forty
eight minutes long) featuring Daevid on glissando guitar and vocals,
Kawabata on guitar drones and miscellaneous instruments with synth
contributions from Cotton Casino. Slot this in the deck and get your
cerebral juices flowing and your ears bleeding !!!. Will
appeal to pot-headed pixies and speed guru's everywhere!. Follows on
from the recent ACID MOTHERS GONG performance in London
which blew several minds at the Royal Festival Hall and left a lot of
old hippies confused. This is the way it should be, shimmering,
rambling and weird as fuck. There are traces of the classic AMT tune
'Pink Lady Lemonade' buried here also, gently playing away as it gets
sucked into a space vortex of swirling Cotton synth madness.

Reviews :
A
collaboration between Gong's Daevid Allen and AMT's Makoto Kawabata and
Cotton Casino. Having first played together at a festival in the
Northwest US, they'd never met or played music together before, but once
they began, they knew there was something special to be communicated
between them through music. The first fruits of that meeting are now
being made available. The first, Makoto Mango, is a 4-track recording
made by Allen, Kawabata, and Casino under the moniker "Guru &
Zero," under which they played a handful of shows. Built largely
around Kawabata's guitar loops and textures, Cotton and David's
contributions pepper the washes with bleeps, yelps and other noises.
It's easy to hear why they thought they should continue to collaborate,
as this is one of the most exciting and best releases to come from the
AMT camp. Fakejazz.com
