1967 Psychedelic Debut Reissued On 180g Vinyl LP!
Original Mono Version!
Remastered In 2017 From The Original Mono Analogue Tapes by James Guthrie, Joel Plante & Bernie Grundman!
Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 253/500!
Legacy Recordings is excited to announce the 2022 wide release of Pink Floyd's debut album, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn (Mono Version), previously available only as a 2018 Record Store Day exclusive.
Originally released in 1967, The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn is the group's only title completed while under the leadership of original vocalist/guitarist Syd Barrett. Recorded at the now legendary Abbey Road Studios and featuring the early classic "Interstellar Overdive", the album is considered one of the quintessential psychedelic records of its era.
'I'm full of dust and guitars,' Pink Floyd's Syd Barrett told Rolling Stone. Here's what that sounded like. The band's debut is all playful, psychedelic imagery and acid guitars. 'Astronomy Domine' shows the group's pop side; 'Interstellar Overdrive' shows its spacier freakouts. Released at the height of the Summer of Love, The Piper at the Gates of Dawn sums up the headlong feeling of the moment just as aptly as the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper.
