Pink Floyd

The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

Pink Floyd's debut: The Fall of Syd Barrett

Review Score: (6/10)
After the release of a runaway single (Arnold Layne), Floyd hit the studio to record this odd but very lyrical creation, written by Syd Barrett. Barrett did not adjust to fame (or drugs) very well and quickly left the band halfway through the second album.

This recording has some great pieces, but is essentially for the collector or the die hard Pink Floyd fan.
