An Introduction to Syd Barrett (Reissue)

2010 compilation ‘An Introduction To…’ is a pretty ideal, accessible first port of call for any newcomers to the mercurial, visionary genius that was Syd Barrett. Executive produced by Barrett’s former Pink Floyd bandmate David Gilmour, this eighteen track collection uniquely collects material Barrett wrote for Floyd and his own two solo albums - Flying Out 

A reissue of the 2010 collection that brought together for the first time the tracks of Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett on one compilation.

David Gilmour, who originally worked on Syd Barrett's two solo albums, as co-producer of The Madcap Laughs and as producer of Barrett, was the executive producer for the album. 

Damon Iddins and Andy Jackson at Astoria Studios remixed five tracks including Octopus, She Took A Long Cool Look, Dominoes and Here I Go, with David Gilmour adding bass guitar to the last track. Pink Floyd's Matilda Mother also received a fresh 2010 mix.
