Producers

Richard Wright isn't listed as producer anywhere on the 1993 reissue. Is there any evidence he was? – Hattrem 04:38, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

This is a review.

In addition, with the unpredictability and at times despairing nature of Madcap greatly decreased, the rigid format of the new sessions ended up giving Barrett a less inventive flavour, as a result.

Nonetheless, Barrett does indeed have some memorable songs, namely "Baby Lemonade", "Dominoes" and "Gigolo Aunt", all of which are as well known to Barrett fans as "See Emily Play" and "Astronomy Domine". Although not generally as highly regarded as The Madcap Laughs, Barrett - of which, the cover was painted by Syd himself - is still a much prized recording from its maker.

Personally, I don't need Wikipedia to tell me which Syd Barrett songs are "inventive" or "memorable" (let alone "prized"). And Wikipedia doesn't need to be a fourth-rate record guide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.25.254.225 (talk) 06:11, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
