THE PINK FLOYD "PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN"
1967 STEREO COLUMBIA RECORDS Cat# SCX 6157
*Rare First original UK LP*
Matrix Nos end -1 / -1
**********************************************************
A tremendous and legendary LP in nice shape.
THE PINK FLOYD as they were titled then, were an obscure psychedelic band predominantly known among the patchouli perfumed Afghan-coated 'UFO Club' regulars. Even they wouldn't be so Interested in the novel pop excursions of thei singles.
The music here was more like what was 'happening' with the psychedelic crowd, an avant garde artistic invention that was more about sound-effects and the light show. Far out and strangely hypnotic as a live group, the debut lp 'Piper At The Gates Of Dawn' the pop tunes were not included.
Rogar 'Syd' Barrett steered the material brilliantly, and these tracks represent his influence - a completely excellent album!
It was after this astounding lp that his ambitions and his spirit flagged, and sadly burned out beyond reviving, and they carried on without his input.
CONDITION;
The VINYL is visually EXCELLENT- overall, having full shine.
There are a couple of surface lines across 'Pow R. Toc H' this plays through fine, with a couple of clicks.
Labels are in EXCELLENT condition.
The LAMINATED 'FLIPBACK' COVER grades VG to VG+, the laminate has a few wrinkles, no stickers or pen, no splits, clean rear and NO "file under pop" on the tab - so it's a first pressing issue.
(see photos).
