7/8 albums have not been played only SD. Power was weak for a Sunday night, last Friday 3/1 had superior power. Have missed many Sunday nights this year due to holidays/football and events... hope to put a long streak together. Ms. Clooney takes the SQ crown with 1 of her strongest Concord releases. 

@slaw Barrett is the place to start, in my option. The Madcap Laughs is EMI trying to fit him into a box and present as a traditional band - Barrett is a bit looser and follows Syd’s vision - whatever that may be at the time.

All are worth owning - and should be required listening IMO. A brilliant writer who maybe flew a bit too close to the sun. An acquired taste like @noromance said - maybe Tyrannosaurus Rex being the closest comparison.  

Mike Garson - The Oxnard Sessions Vols 1 & 2
