Admittedly, I've only heard The Madcap Laughs, but I love it.

Re: Syd Barret solo albums - worth getting?

I, too, enjoy Madcap, but it has limited appeal, even for the biggest Floyd fans.

I'd agree with that.

P.S. Only virgins make "your mom" jokes.

Re: Syd Barret solo albums - worth getting?

I would suggest getting the compilation CD "Won't You Miss Me".
This release has the best songs from "Barrett","The Madcap Laughs" & "Opel" + some rarities. I believe it's all remastered as well.

Yeesh, these people and their talk about music and this Syd guy. They should hold these kind of conversations where appropriate.
