It just got me thinking about Syd Floyd in general. Truth be told, even though it's not my favorite aspect of the band's history, it does get a bit overshadowed by the lot of us. Some of the psychedelic stuff was a bit too much really (I don't think I'll ever fully like "Interstellar Overdrive"), but the singles from that era are all catchy and well-written, and the sound was both distinctly 1960s and yet distinctly Pink Floyd. I don't think I'm in love with Piper all of a sudden after years of ambivalence, but I think my growing appreciation towards pop music trends in my old age (

I think Syd Floyd can encompass Piper, Saucerful, his first two solo albums (because Barrett was essentially a Pink Floyd album anyway), and all of their early singles. The best of Syd Floyd to me would probably be "Astronomy Domine", "Matilda Mother", "See Emily Play", and "Paintbox" (although I'm not sure if Syd was on that last track or not). And I can't forget "Jugband Blues", probably his best song with the Floyd.
