So far I haven't really enjoyed my deeper dives into Pink Floyd music. I like some of the band's music but more on an individual song basis and not all in one continuous sitting. This time might be different. The Dark Side of the Moon is the album that vaulted the band to superstardom, while The Wall is their career-defining epic.
Meanwhile The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn is their debut, when they were still a relatively unknown band led by the enigmatic Syd Barrett. Roger Waters, who wrote most of the stuff you know as "Pink Floyd music" was a supporting player for this album, and David Gilmour, my personal favorite member of Pink Floyd, wasn't a part of the band at this point. I am extremely intrigued by the possibilities of this prototype Pink Floyd, even though debut albums tend to be extremely rough around the edges.
