In the second half of the 1960s, the pop music industry began targeting intelligent psychedelic rock at drug-taking college kids. At the vanguard of this new approach was Pink Floyd.

To begin with the band played improvised rock'n'roll intended to overwhelm the senses of a faithful who came to drop LSD and dance. Then it moved to concert halls, creating jaw-dropping multimedia shows incorporating performance art and the avant garde and all the possibilities of emerging sound and light technology for a stoned audience that sat and watched and expected to be transported.

In this series Scott Meze explores this music in unprecedented detail. He dives deep to unearth the psychedelic treasures in every band release, including the solo albums you must own. He covers studio outtakes, film and TV footage, and every circulating live show from UFO to The Wall, explaining what you hear, how good the band is, and which ones you must put in your playlist.

Together, the four volumes of this series represent the ultimate collector's guide to Pink Floyd's psychedelic music, and an indispensable companion for every cosmic adventurer.

This first volume covers the formation of the band, its integration into the London counterculture, and the extraordinary events of 1967. It follows Syd Barrett's rise and fall and the method by which the band picked itself up from the depths of defeat, ending 1968 with the blueprint for a phenomenal renaissance. Along the way, you'll explore the recording of The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn and A Saucerful Of Secrets, a clutch of singles both hits and misses, four BBC radio sessions, its first soundtracks, ten vital audience recordings, and much more.
