Liner notes:

"I don't think I'm easy to talk about. I've got a very irregular head. And I'm not anything that tou think I am anyway."

- Syd Barrett, 1971.

In the 32 years that elapsed between Syd Barrett’s last unproductive visit to a recording studio in 1914 and his death on July 7, 2005, much was written about Pink Floyd’s former creative leader, most of it based on pure conjecture. Barrett’s retreat away from his former life meant that, as his myth grew through his absence, he was effectively viewed through the fragments he presented of himself in his recordings. This bespoke MOJO collection seeks to present that elusive sense of what can only therefore be described as “Sydness”.

Included are tracks by artists that influenced Barrett-era Floyd (fellow sonic adventurers AMM alongside Pink Anderson and Floyd Council, the two bluesmen who gave the band its name), as well as Syd’s contemporaries (Soft Machine, Gong, Hawkwind, Frank Zappa, the Bonzos, Kevin Ayers), and devotees (Spacemen 3, The Flaming lips, Jennifer Gentle, Acid Mothers Temple, The Bevis Frond, Wooden Shjips). We hope that in some way this 15-track collection encapsulates the spirit of the man and, more significantly, his legacy. Join with us then, friends, as we embark on this, a fantastic voyage In Search of Syd...
