The music of Van der Graaf Generator is
complex; intelligent and inspired. It can
also be obscure and unapproachable; but
it is undisputedly an art form in itself.
The main part of this film was recorded at
Charleroi; Palais des Expos; on 27th September
1975; this legendary gig captures the classic
Van der Graaf line up of Hugh Banton; Guy
Evans; David Jackson and Peter Hammill on
their 1975 French tour.
Although the band only recently reformed
following Peter Hammill's solo projects; Van der
Graaf immediately create their own unique
levels of intensity and vision as they take us
through the entire Godbluff album.
Complimenting this stunning performance; is
rare continental studio footage from the early
1970s featuring incendiary performances of
Theme One and the whole of A Plague of
Lighthouse Keepers.
Also featured are two rare tracks from German
television which completes the round of of just
about all of the survivng Van der Graaf footage.
