Gong La Vieille Grille Club Paris 1968

Probably the very first Gong recording ever made.
A part from an Interview I did with Daevid in 2005
Udi: "I read somewhere that the first gig was attended by Yoko Ono & Ornette Coleman and that a TV crew filmed the show. Is there any footage of that?
Daevid:
I would love to find it. its worth remembering that Yoko & Ornette were doing performance art upstairs on the main stage & we were down in the newly christened & very avant garde psychedelic cellar. We didn't play together. Gilli was subsequently offered a role in the sound track as orgasmic special fx but the film was pretty standard & boring.
