Geoff Krozier was a legend among the few fortunate to hear him, and among the very few to have seen him live. He was more than a mere magician, he was The High Priest of Mystery and Madness. Developing his skills in Melbourne, Australia in the 1970's, he successfully toured Paris and then settled in new York before returning to Australia in 1980. Here he linked up with Australia's Premier Electronic outfit - Rainbow Generator (aka The Generator). After 6 months hard work around Melbourne, the whole show, crew, chooks, ducks, birds, boxes and tons of musical equipment & lights were shipped up to the Fission Chips Studios (in Woolloomooloo N.S.W). Owned & operated by Mojo (aka David), he and the other member of the Generator, Ras (aka Rob), had already recorded and released an electronic LP - "Dance Of The Spheres" (with an award winning track), and other recordings. Several weeks of full-on rehearsals saw all members go there on way, with the intention of returning shortly to kick-off a proper recording session, and to return to live performances. Tragically on May 17th 1981 Geoffrey passed away. This was just prior to the crew coming back together. Using the tapes of rehearsals, Mojo (assisted by his Engineer friend Barry, and to lesser degree by Rob)lovingly assembled the tribute double vinyl LP, "Tranceformer". The video has never been seen before, and from bits and pieces, Rob took it on as a project over a long period of time, and now we present it just as lovingly as a further tribute to our friend, to our brother - Geoffrey.
