The Very best version. I think this was made at a time when Mono was the mix that producers concentrated on and Stereo was the new kid on the block, a fad even. So they just slapped the Stereo together with less care. Don't get me wrong, Stereo done properly is the one to go for every time.

now i know why it sounded off on my PC

Pure psychedelic SORCERY! Syd is an Ascended Master And PF...more mysterious and amazing than Ancient Egypt

Much duller than the UK 1st pressing

I used to want to live in this album when I tripped

Mono just hits different.

First song I ever heard with Syd Barrett with Pink floyd 😍 I'll always love this song super trippy 😂

When I discovered the mono mix probably 20 years ago, I never went back to the stereo.

I like both versions. The stereo one has a more washy subdued and mysterious vibe to it, it feels more like a vignette. This one feels more like a fleshed out track with everything audible and the weirdness of the composition and effects really become apparent. Both are good in their own way.

Incredible ❤

The black and green scarecrow as everyone knows Stood with a bird on his hat and straw everywhere He didn't care He stood in a field where barley grows His head did no thinking His arms didn't move except when the wind cut up Rough and mice ran around on the ground He stood in a field where barley grows The black and green scarecrow is sadder than me But now he's resigned to his fate 'Cause life's not unkind, he doesn't mind He stood in a field where barley grows

In witch way is this the mono version?

You can't hear me Syd but I can you and I love it 💕 yippee 😊

A sad story... Syd Barett was a talented, gifted young man... A real tragedy for the whole family... Pink Floyd ignored the problem, says Nick Mason... Syd's older brother was a doctor!!! They also repressed it!!! He said: Everything is fine... Nothing is fine... When he made his 2 solo albums, Syd Barett was a sick person... He was on the verge of schizophrenia... I'm interested in how he lived with his illness afterwards... Unfortunately there are no more books in Germany...

damn this is another one that sounds so much better in mono. i could never stand that stupid phaser garbage it does on the last riff of the stereo mix, plus with mono you get to hear so much more stuff

wow. only ever heard the stereo version but this is so much better. so many little details that i've never heard become so apparent here. excited to hear the rest of my fav PF album how it was meant to be heard

Probably my favourite opening track on a debut album. Almost sixty years since I first heard this and still loving it.

Very different from stereo version

Glad I purchased a copy of this pressing. Sounds much better than my stereo remaster.

BRILLIANT! Much appreciation for the upload. As others have commented, THANK YOU for uploading this masterpiece in GLORIOUS MONO...as it was always intended to be experienced...and, in a level of sound quality that doesn't neuter the true majesty of the work or the experience

Mono version is fantastic.

I like these mono mixes, they make it sound a much fresher experience. All those details which were missed, revealed. Though I do wonder about some of the sounds that don't quite work for me. It feels like there is a lot of phase cancellation going on in the reverb/echo department, perhaps as a by product of working from a stereo mix? The phasing going on in Flaming does not sound right to me. Interesting, but I'm not sure if it was meant to be sounding like flutter and wow. I think this is more accidental rather than by design. On some tracks Syd's guitar is either buried in echo (Interstellar Overdrive) or the echo is almost completely lost (Pow R Toc H). Was this really the album they heard in 1967 in mono, or someone more recent who's had the master tapes to play with? My favourite things that weren't in the stereo mix are the whoosh of a falling star in Astronomy Domine....it reminds me of the Clangers! It is even more spooky. Also hearing Rick Wright's organ on Interstellar Overdrive, parts that were buried.

❤😂 I absolutely love this song 🎵 extremely underrated

I love this!!!

This screams movie opening scene song.

Mono is the way this song should be heard. Cheers!

A heck of a lot smoother than the stereo version,Syd sounds slury in the stereo version, very clear on this!

This is so terrible compared to stereo. Most of their mono songs sound alright but this is just awful. So much missing, so much flange, yuck.

It's a shame that organ and the extra guitars aren't in the stereo mixes (I imagine there was some sort of technical difficult involved, considering this album was recorded with a 4-track machine, if I remember correctly?). This is gorgeous. Thanks for the uploads!

My fav.floyd song

The only good part of the movie.

Estilo Clapton..

Syd

My go-to SEX TRACK 🤫

Question: Why does this video ALWAYS refer to me the John Travolta film "Blow Out"...???? 🤔🤔

💥

Why wasn't this song called "The Pink Queen"??? It sounds like an obvious choice...🤔

Wish of what

I hope they re-mix the stereo version sometime soon.

Bless you, Roger 'Syd" Barrett.

No way...this is the version

Sublime

Pink Floyd was better with Syd..

I cannot overstate this album’s significance in my life

8:40 이 곡을 스테레오로 들어야하는 이유

For once a version where I can't hear someone keeping beat with a temple block in the beginning of the song.

Proto-punk

Sounds great in mono....

This version is so good But i miss the “ahhhhhh” in “watching buttercups cup the light” :(

Saw Roger in Boston a few nights later. I would give up several toes and more than one bodily organ to have a soundboard recording of that show.
