{"title":"Syd Barrett","description":"\u003cp\u003eSyd Barrett was an English singer, songwriter and musician who was a founding member of the rock band Pink Floyd in the 1960s. He left the band in 1968 due to his mental health issues and went on to have a brief but influential solo career. His solo albums include The Madcap Laughs (1970) and Barrett (1970). His most famous songs include “Octopus”, “Golden Hair” and “Terrapin”. An interesting fact about Syd Barrett is that he wrote the song “See Emily Play” in 1966 while under the influence of LSD. This song went on to become one of Pink Floyd's most successful singles.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"syd-barrett-barrett-36469","title":"Syd Barrett – Barrett","description":"\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition: \u003c\/strong\u003e Brand New\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShips from: \u003c\/strong\u003e Melbourne\u003c\/div\u003e\n  \n\n\n\n\u003cul class=\"tabs\"\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003eDescription\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRelease details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTracklist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tabs-content\"\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Description tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli class=\"active\"\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003eIn 1967, Pink Floyd were synonymous with the London counterculture. And in the In the early days of the band, Syd Barrett was the driving creative force of the band. He wrote the two psychedelic hit singles Arnold Layne and See Emily Play, but then he went downhill psychologically and was no longer wearable - especially at live gigs. After that he recorded \"Barrett\" and \"The Madcap Laughs\".\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIt was precisely on his solo debut, The Madcap Laughs, that his diverse, sometimes revolutionary ideas became apparent, which he would like to realise all at once. But the album is also a document of his philosophy, according to which the first take, even if bumbling, should always be the best and a repetition of the recordings should be rejected in principle, as it would only rob the songs of their spontaneity. No wonder that the people in charge at the label thought about the success of the album, which was only finished in its basic features after weeks in the studio. And so it was that David Gilmour and Roger Waters concentrated Sessions helped to mix and complete the album.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eHis second was released in 1970 and is much stronger than the debut. On the one hand, the album contains a wealth of brilliant song ideas - some of them almost bordering on insanity. On the other hand, Barrett fails due to his lack of ability to realise his ideas musically. Thanks to the renewed support of former Pink Floyd comrades-in-arms, this album could at least be finished - it represents nothing more and nothing less than a mirror of Barrett's torn psyche. After that Barrett retired completely from the music scene and became a living legend.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch2\u003eReview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllMusic rating: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003cdiv class=\"Stars rating-7\" aria-label=\"Rating of this product is 3.5 out of 5.\"\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n          \u003cstrong\u003eAllMusic users: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003cdiv class=\"Stars rating-9\" aria-label=\"Rating of this product is 4.5 out of 5.\"\u003e\n          (546 votes)\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n          \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/mw0000651465\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRead the AllMusic.com review\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \n  \n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/syd-barrett\"\u003eSyd Barrett\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e Harvest\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_uk\"\u003eUK\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp; \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_europe\"\u003eEurope\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acoustic\"\u003eAcoustic\u003c\/a\u003e, \n          \n            \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/psychedelic-rock\"\u003ePsychedelic Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n          \n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Baby+Lemonade\"\u003eBaby Lemonade\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Love+Song\"\u003eLove Song\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Dominoes\"\u003eDominoes\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+It+Is+Obvious\"\u003eIt Is Obvious\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Rats\"\u003eRats\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA6 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Maisie\"\u003eMaisie\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Gigolo+Aunt\"\u003eGigolo Aunt\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2a Waving My Arms In The Air\u003cbr\u003eB2b I Never Lied To You\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Wined+And+Dined\"\u003eWined And Dined\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Wolfpack\"\u003eWolfpack\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Syd+Barrett+Effervescing+Elephant\"\u003eEffervescing Elephant\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Harvest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40699970093121,"sku":"8241470","price":58.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/cover_42042102017_r.jpg?v=1774003287"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/collections\/syd-barrett\/type_new.oembed","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
