3. This is another one of the early Pink Floyd albums that was also prog rock material, with its mix of long strange sounding tracks "Set The Controls For The Heart of The Sun" and title track and funny weird songs like " Corporal Clegg". I had this years ago on vinyl LP and now its on Cd/5().

4. Sep 21,  · In the seventies an eight track tape was available with both Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Saucerful of Secrets on one tape!Iwill say some of the music on this tape was pretty obscure and definitely could be described as a bunch of deranged acid munching burn outs.A favorite of mine is Corporal Clegg with a thunderous bass line in the record,it certainly grabbed My attention/5().

6. Apr 19,  · Needs to be merged with this version: Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets. I also really don't think this version is a repress. The rimtext could simply be from a different pressing plant. To my knowledge, all promo stamped copies are THIS version. Perhaps not always the case, but promos are typically a good indicator of first issues/5(K).
