The Faust track on this disc is superb.  Worth picking up for that alone
IMO (and essential, if you're already a Faust fan).  The whole disc is
pretty good overall, but if you already have the 'Love in Space' or the
Gong '25th Anniversary' live double-CD's, those render the HW & Gong tracks
on the Herzberg CD thoroughly redundant (they're not *identical*
recordings, but very very similar).
