Effervescing Elephant – Syd Barrett
“Effervescing Elephant”
Syd Barrett
FROM
Barrett
(1970)
If I ever made you a mix tape in the 80s there is a good chance it was on a TDK SA-90, I printed the artist and track info on the J-card in pencil, and it probably had this song on it. At just under two minutes it was perfect to fill the empty space at the end of a side.
It’s a pretty catchy tune from original Pink Floyd frontman and eventual “Crazy Diamond” Syd Barrett. His few solo albums are fascinating to listen to. I don’t think they are particularly good, but they are fascinating.
