French pseudo-beatnik Dashiell Hedayat persuaded the psychedelic, prog-rocking Gong to back him up on Obsolete, his second (and final) album project. This is the Continental Circus-era Gong, and the song structures here resemble that album's stripped-down sound. Propelled by Allen's spacy guitar and Malherbe's spicy sax, the tunes on Obsolete, though at times experimental, aren't as involving or full-blown as those on Gong's Camembert Electrique, recorded on the heels of Hedayat's album. Hedayat sings, or rather talks, in French on each piece

Released as a solo album by French beat figure Dashiell Hedayatt in 1971, Obsolete offers up a musical polaroid picture of Gong metamorphosing from whimsical slightly clumsy psych rock act to the floating space creature that went on to make Camembert Electrique and the Radio Gnome Invincible Trilogy.

French pseudo-beatnik Dashiell Hedayat persuaded the psychedelic, prog-rocking Gong to back him up on Obsolete, his second (and final) album project. The album ends with the lengthy "Cielo Drive/17," as close to a Gong song as it gets on a non-Gong album. Dashiell Hedayat - vocal, guitar, keyboards Daevid Allen - lead guitar Didier Malherbe - saxophone, flute Christian Tritsch - bass, acoustic guitar Pip Pyle - drums, guitar Gilli Smythe - vocal. Tracklist: Eh, Mushroom, Will You Mush My Room?

I can't see no difference between this one and the 1992 reissue, exept the mould SID code: IFPI 121E (invisible on the 1992 CD).
