Comments: 8) Scream Thy Last Scream - the last verse only, at 1/2 speed. This way, the "chipmunk" voices in the background are at normal speed. This is, easily, the nicest thing on this disk. It's really great to hear Syd & the boys have a good time.


9) Swan Lee #1 - One of the unused backing tracks probably made by the Floyd at the Vegetable Man sessions in the Fall of 1967.


11) Astronomy Domine - 14 May 67 This track has an introduction on it that I'm not familiar with. It's in French, I believe. However, the song is certainly from the good old Look Of The Week.


16) Swan Lee #2 - Another one of the unused backing tracks probably made by the Floyd at the Vegetable Man sessions in the Fall of 1967.


17) Birdie Hop - The CD says that it's a different take than was used on Opel. However, since only 1 take was ever made, they have to be the same.


19) Opel - The CD says that it's a different take than was used on Opel. However, it's really the same. Horrible quality, though..


20) Astronomy Domine - The CD claims 19 April 68 Rome, Italy. but, I don't know if that's correct. It certainly doesn't feature Barrett.

This is another decent collection of Syd's rarities, plagued with inaccurate source information. There is nothing presented here that wasn't available before or in better quality than before. Lots of vinyl distortion can be heard. Not the best CD in my collection, but certainly not the worst. Hey, at least they didn't reissue the bloody Peel Sessions again... groan...
