Syd Barrett: The Madcap Laughs

LP Record In 1967, Pink Floyd were synonymous with London's counterculture. In the band's early days, Syd Barrett was its creative driving force. He wrote two psychedelic hits, Arnold Layne and See Emily Play, but sadly his mental health went downhill and he became untenable – especially at live concerts. He went on to record the albums "Barrett" and "The Madcap Laughs". His solo debut, The Madcap Laughs, in particular, showcased his diverse and partly revolutionary ideas, which he wanted to bring to life all at once.
