Gong - Camembert Electrique 1971
Their second LP and probably best pre-trilogy album, but I wouldn't know as this is the only pre-Flying Teapot disc of theirs I own. Not everything works (like most of their albums), but enough does for me to recommend it for those interested.
Great album, love all of it. What tracks don't work in your opinion?
This remaster (from original master tapes, for the first time) is highly recommended.

I don't know it all that well, despite owning a CD-R that some BCBer (Stephen?) sent my eons ago. I recently bought the SHM-CD and played it twice in my car driving down from LA to San Diego for the weekend. The ones that stood out to me were "You Can't Kill Me," "I've Been Stone Before," "Fohat Digs Holes in Space," "And You Tried so Hard," and "Tropical Fish." It was easily as good as Flying Teapot, but not as good as Angels Egg, or You.
