Free Music Review: Just A Sample Of Syd Barrett
Hit: 5 Stars

Syd Barrett as you was the founder of Pink Floyd and wrote most of the bands psychedlic masterpiece debut album, "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn", this album samples 22 of his greatest songs realesed during his short famed solo carrerr and is a musical adventure each and every time you listen to any of Syd Barretts songs or albums, all the songs on here are pretty simple but yet maintain a weirdness and psychedelic appeal to them which makes them facinating and interesting to listen too. Of course there's the people out there who think Barrett is underatted which is NOT TRUE I mean if it werent for Syd, Pink Floyd wouldnt be the same band they are today, he helped create that space sound they have, so if you loved The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn you'll also love the solo stuff he did, enjoy, and oh yeah did i say the songs on here are genius.

Wouldn't You Miss Me?: The Best of Syd Barrett Poster

UK collection featuring 22 tracks, the finest solo works from the eccentric original Pink Floyd co-founder. Compiled from his solo albums, the rarities and outtakes collection 'Opel', the box-set 'Crazy Diamond' and two previously unreleased tracks, 'Two Of A Kind' (BBC Session Track) and 'Bob Dylan's Blues'.
Pop culture's fascination with the psychically damaged has inspired a pantheon of cult heroes, from Brian Wilson through Sky Saxon, Roky Erickson, and Kurt Cobain, whose enduring--if troubling--appeal could give a cultural psychologist a life's worth of study. Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett has long been one of the most obsessed over. Listening to this first-ever distillation of the "best" of Barrett's brief post-Floyd recording career (which essentially ended in 1970), it's not hard to understand why. Barrett's childlike side (displayed here on such Lewis Carroll-esque fare as "Octopus," "Terrapin," and "Effervescing Rhino") and almost painfully innocent love songs sometimes feel like the lost blueprint of alt rock, while his space-case vocal delivery and distinctly surreal sense of timing and rhythm give each cut a hypnotic sense of intrigue. It's all a far cry from the intricately baroque pop psychedelia of his brief tenure in Pink Floyd. Something (LSD? Insanity? Both?) clearly shattered Barrett's consciousness between the band's debut album Piper at the Gates of Dawn (he left the band shortly afterward) and the spare, shattered acoustic ballad poems from his first solo album (The Madcap Laughs) featured here. The more accessible, pop-conscious ethos of its follow-up, Barrett (highlighted by "Baby Lemonade" and the amusing "Gigolo Aunt") were largely studio illusions conjured up by sidemen such as Floyd's David Gilmour and Richard Wright. Barrett fans should also note the presence here of the previously unreleased "Bob Dylan Blues," a wry, talking blues parody of the great Zimmerman and allegedly one of Barrett's earliest compositions. --Jerry McCulley
