Well, I have found a '95 GAS booklet in my place, and in the "Short
Range Plans" department it was written:

25th Birthday Party Too - Various (GAS/Voiceprint 103) Spring 96
The best of all oter bands that appeared at Gong's 25th Birthday Party.
Kevin Ayers, Fluvius, Shortwave, Mothergong, Shapeshifter Gong, Tim
Blake and all.

But I also haven't heard if they have put it out yet. Seems the didn't
do it in spring :)
