EMI/Capitol, 1970. Used ... Just Sold Out!
A sublime second solo effort from Syd Barrett – and maybe his most perfectly-formed album ever! There's a sinister balance to the record right from the start – a gentle approach to the offbeat themes that is almost more unsettling than if the matter was undertaken more forcefully ... read more CD

A mid 70s masterpiece of heavy space rock from Hawkwind – one of their best albums ever!
