Gong � Flying Teapot (half-speed master deluxe edition)
remastered from the original byg records tapes and cut for the first time ever in glorious half-speed at london�s world-famous abbey road studios, this exclusive rsd 2026 edition includes a deluxe gatefold sleeve, archival artwork, and a 16-page booklet exploring the storytelling and mythology of the beloved radio gnome invisible saga. released under byg records � the original label that recorded the album before licensing it to virgin - this definitive deluxe reissue delivers the best sound quality flying teapot has ever had: a true cosmic upgrade for gong�s mind-bending masterpiece.
originally unleashed in 1973, flying teapot kicked off the eccentric radio gnome invisible trilogy, introducing the wild, otherworldly universe of gong. here reside the pot head pixies, space-faring creatures who ride interstellar teapots and transmit transcendent messages via radio gnome invisible. at its core, the album is a surreal fusion of psychedelia, jazz improvisation, and anarchic humour, propelled by daevid allen�s visionary madness.
featuring the cult anthems �radio gnome invisible,� �flying teapot,� and �zero the hero,� this edition resurrects gong�s signature blend of absurdity and brilliance - now with stunning clarity that reveals every swirl of synth, every playful whisper, every glimmer of cosmic chaos.
half-speed mastered. fully teapot-powered.
out exclusively for record store day 2026.
