Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable. We work hard to provide excellent service as is represented by our well over 18,000 positive feedback. We use an ultrasonic KLAudio machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery. We take Customer Service seriously, and want you to be satisfied. Please give us 5 stars in each category through the feedback system, and we will be able to effectively continue to fulfill your passion for rare and collectible music! We have served thousands of satisfied customers - far more than our feedback records indicate - and our aim is to continue to do so. Thank you for your interest and support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SHIPPING: USA ~ 1 LP = $4.00 Media Priority rates vary by area; please inquire.

STILL FACTORY SEALED
NEVER OPENED /// NEVER PLAYED
ORIGINAL 1974 first pressing of the two Pink Floyd assisted SYD BARRETT solo's recorded in 1970 1971 from the UK metal masters...
Pink Floyd co-founder/original guitarist/singer/songwriter Syd Barrett's first solo album entitled The Madcap Laughs was released in January of 1970.
The album would not be released here in the USA until the Syd Barrett double album entitled Syd Barrett came out in 1974.
The album was recorded throughout 1968 and 1969 with producers Malcolm Jones whom produced most of the first half of the disc and the closing classic "Late Night". It was also produced by Roger Waters and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd.
By this point, the effects of Syd's drug use sadly started to deteriorate his songwriting skills and his mental state (he sadly passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2006).
There are an abundance of great tracks like the opening "Terrapin", "No Good Trying", "Here I Go", "Octopus", "Golden Hair", "Long Gone" and the aforementioned "Late Night".
The songs that show Syd stripped and just him and his guitar are the haunting "Dark Globe", "She Took A Long Cold Look", "Feel" (which has him stopping and flipping the page and continuing the song) and "If It's In You" (complete with its false start). David Gilmour believed enough in Syd to produce his album. You've probably read that the recording sessions were extremely difficult due to Syd's declining health and mental abilities to create, remember and concentrate - hence the importance of this collection of songs by a true "Mad hatter", par excellence....
