Short description
'Piper At The Gates Of Dawn', the debut album from Pink Floyd, epitomises the genre of psychedelic rock. Guitar and organ experimentation is taken to extremes on tracks like 'Interstellar Overdrive', while Syd Barrett's whimsical and often humorous lyrics have an undertone of darkness, aided by the use of eerie vocal and instrumental effects. Originally recorded in 1967, it was Barrett's only full album with Pink Floyd, and this 40th anniversary edition contains stereo and mono mixes of the release alongside a third disc that includes B-sides and unreleased rarities.
