Divided Alien [Import]

Product Description
Daevid Allen has been a highly respected figure in the progressive music circle for over 40 years. On 'Divided Alien' Allen used the then embryonic sampling and video technology resulting in this discordant, experimental set of layered tape-looping and Allen's sung/spoken poetry and unique guitar solos.This reissue includes the four hard to find bonus tracks 'Bananareggae', 'Are You Ready', 'Oo, La La' & 'Side Windo', all of which were recorded in Jamaica in 1978. Comes packaged in an attractive digipak reproducing the original album's artwork, credits and sleeve notes, in addition to a new authoritative commentary on the recordings. Snapper. 2005.

Daevid Allen - 'Divided Alien Clockwork Band' (Blueprint) 2 1/2 stars.......2006-11-25

I've previously heard 'of' and seen this title in music stores and available online before, but this was my first chance I ever had to check it out for myself. 'Divided Alien...' is (didn't realize at first) a 77 minute (a double vinyl lp's worth) of a live album on CD reissue of a performance that the Gong mainman Daevid Allen had played in summer, 1980 at the Squat Theater in New York. As I listened to this CD a 2nd time, I had found this title is simply too experimental and just too abstract for my taste. Don't get me wrong, if you like ALL or even most of the other solo efforts that Allen has put out, you should get more out of this CD than I did. The music is good,just failed to trip my trigger. Some of the cuts here I sort of dug were "Fast Father", "Sex Is A Careless Sea", maybe "Strong Woman" and the nine-minute closer "Smile" (disc's lengthiest track). Line-up: Daevid Allen-guitar,loops&vocals,Bill Laswell-bass,Fred Maher-drums and Bill Bacon-percussion.
