Syd Barrett’s second solo album, originally released in 1970, returns in this high‑quality 2014 reissue on Harvest. Produced by David Gilmour and Richard Wright, Barrett captures the fragile brilliance of Barrett’s post‑Floyd songwriting, blending whimsical psychedelia, stark acoustic moments and surreal lyrical imagery. Supported heavily by Gilmour’s multi‑instrumental contributions, the album stands as a unique and essential document of Barrett’s creative world. Pressed on 180‑gram black vinyl, this edition offers a faithful, high‑fidelity presentation of a cult classic.
