Protogong (1967-68) Gong 'proper' begins (1968-1971) In 1975, Allen and Smyth left the band, which continued without them, releasing a series of jazz rock albums under the leadership of drummer Pierre Moerlen. This incarnation soon became known as PIERRE MOERLEN'S GONG . Meanwhile, Smyth formed MOTHER GONG while Daevid Allen initiated a series of spin-off groups, including PLANET GONG , NEW YORK GONG and GONGMAISON , before returning to lead GONG once again in 1990 until his death in 2015. With Allen's encouragement, the band decided to continue as a quintet comprising guitarist Fabio Golfetti, bassist Dave Sturt, woodwind player Ian East, guitarist and vocalist Kavus Torabi, and drummer Cheb Nettles. They released the album "Rejoice! I'm Dead!" in September 2016 followed by "The Universe Also Collapses" in 2019 and "Unending Ascending" in 2023. very interesting band history with 28 (!) past members :oP

No sir, this is GONG. Get their latest album and stop whining.

This incarnation of the band has so much of the original band's spirit and all of the musical elements, as well as Daevid's blessing.. Has more than enough of a claim on the band name, for my money. And a fantastic show every time!
