Ddoe, am y tro cyntaf ers mis, gwrandawais i ar Van der Graaf Generator ar fy ffordd yn ôl o’r dafarn, a sylwi eto pa mor anhygoel o wych yw Godbluff.
Neithiwr, am y tro cyntaf ers misoedd, ces i freuddwyd am Van der Graaf – Hammill wedi ail-lansio’r band gyda lein-yp hollol newydd, dau gitarydd a dau ddrymiwr, ac yn wneud gig yn neuadd Ysgol Rhiwabon. Lle aeth fy mam. Wrth gwrs.
Y bore ’ma, ebost oddi wrth Watch That Page sy’n tynnu fy sylw at bwt o newyddion bach:
“After a period of consideration and some exploratory rehearsal sessions over the summer, Hugh Banton, Guy Evans & Peter Hammill are now looking forward with excitement to the next phase in the VdGG reunion.
They expect to be doing shows in the first half of 2007 and will also be recording new material in this period with a view to releasing an album later in the year.
Van der Graaf Generator is now a trio consisting of the three surviving members of the original 1968 formation. David Jackson has not been a member of the group since November 2005.”
IIieiieeeeeieieieiiei!!
