What are your favorite Syd Barrett songs?

[snakes&ladders]

Even though I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan it took me a while to get in to Syd's solo stuff.

The ONLY true Floyd was Syd....RIP:

I'm huge PF fan aswell and when I heard Piper the first time I thought it was wonderful mix of acid, childhood's happiness and surrealism. It's one of my fav albums. Later when I started listening his solo career it was really something else than what he was doing with Floyds. He was doin' truthful and sad psych folk songs that I could listen only in certain mood - and when I would listen to it, his cracks in voice and flegmatic guitar in background would totally touch me.

Few fav songs with Floyds -
Whole Piper at The Gates of Dawn
See Emily Play
Careful With That Axe, Eugene
Let There Be More Light
Jugband Blues
Arnold Layne

Solo -

Terrapin
Octopus
Golden Hair
No Man's Land
Dark Globe
No Good Trying
Wined and Dined

Let there be more Light

Sorry man, Let there Be More Light Was written by Roger Waters.

Amazing song nonetheless!


Here's a sweet live version from '68.

Cool tunes....I know this isn't solo but I have to add it.

Tune still creeps me out to this day...in a good way

I love this song! It's so romantic!

I finally received The Madcap Laughs last Monday and I should be getting my copy of Barrett within the next couple of days... I hope.

I think my favorite song off of Madcap has to be Terrapin. What a beautiful song!
