You is the fifth studio album by the progressive rock band Gong:

  • released by Virgin Records in October 1974
  • Recorded at Virgin's Manor Studios in Oxfordshire, England
  • side 1 was mixed at Pye Studios, Marble Arch, London
  • side 2 was mixed at The Manor

You is the third of the "Radio Gnome Invisible" trilogy of albums, following Flying Teapot and Angel's Egg. The trilogy forms a central part of the Gong mythology. The structure of the album mixes short narrative pieces with long, jazzy instrumentals (such as "Master Builder", "A Sprinkling of Clouds" and "Isle of Everywhere"), building to a climax/conclusion with "You Never Blow Yr Trip Forever".
