Despite, or perhaps because of, his frazzled mind, Syd manages some amazing, but tainted, melodies and a unique mis-matched guitar rhythm. This album deserves to be right up there not only because the music is top quality but how it captures perfectly Syd's state of being and offers a sneak glimpse into his mind, or perhaps what he just wants to be seen. The lyrics are one of a kind, for the better.
