Подробная инофрмация об исполнителе
Mother Gong was an offshot band of Gong, first imagined by Gilli Smyth in 1978 to promote her album [m=30807]. In 1979, Gilli Smyth met Harry Williamson, and Mother Gong became the vehicle for musical projects together, with several distict linups of musicians over the next 15 years. In 1994 Harry left and Gilli continued to use the name with a completely different group, until 2006.

Harry and Gilli emigrated to Australia with their family in '82. In '86 Harry built a studio for the band. This was the longest, most stable, and most prolific period for Mother Gong.

Concerts in Australia and a stripped down tour of USA in '91. In '89 Harry traveled to the UK to produce David [m=428822] and [m=855249], toured with them and was later joined by Gilli and Mother Gong to record [m=308585].
