Planet Gong, founded in 1977, was one of the many Gong incarnations from the 1970s onwards.
In 1977, Daevid Allen and Gilli Smyth of Gong teamed up with members of Here & Now (3) to create Planet Gong. The new band performed live throughout the subsequent two years, releasing one single and a live album.
In 1991, Planet Gong was resurrected by Daevid Allen for a live performance of the Floating Anarchy album.
