RECORD EX, Sometimes NEAR MINT but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR EX (please, see pictures and read above description)
The band moved from Syd Barrett's relatively concise and vivid songs to spacy, ethereal material
with lengthy instrumental passages. Barrett's influence is still felt (he actually did manage to contribute one track,
the jovial "Jugband Blues"), and much of the material retains a gentle, fairy-tale ambience.
"Remember a Day" and "See Saw" are highlights; on "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun,"
"Let There Be More Light," and the lengthy instrumental title track, the band begin to map out
the dark and repetitive pulses that would characterize their next few records...(AllMusic)
