Free Music Notes for The Piper at the Gates of Dawn
Free Music Review: Very Unique!
Hit: 4 Stars
I happen to be close friends with a great Pink Floyd fan who has frequently told me about this record, and the artistic prowess of Syd Barrett. So, out of sheer curiosity, I bought the album.
The first time I listened to it, it was simply too weird for me to really latch onto, the way you'd latch on to a good pop album; but it nonetheless took my interest, and I found myself listening to it again. And again. And again. I quickly developed favorites: "Flaming" and "Matilda Mother" are definitely priceless, as is the nonsensical whimsy of "Bike." 'Piper' is just oozing with originality, and its witty charm is irresistible.
The Piper at the Gates of Dawn Poster
Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 2008.While they took their name from blues musicians Pink Anderson and Floyd Council when they started out as an R&B combo in the mid-60s, Pink Floyd's leader, guitarist Syd Barrett, soon began piloting the band through unprecedented sonic excursions typified by the title of their 1967 debut album's most celebrated track--the outsized instrumental "Interstellar Overdrive." Equally adept at composing catchy-sounding, Gothic-themed pop songs such as "See Emily Play," "The Scarecrow" and "The Gnome," Barrett seemed destined for greatness--that is, until psychedelic drugs got the best of him, and he abandoned the band to bassist Roger Waters and new guitarist David Gilmour. The rest, as they say, is history. --Billy Altman
