- The 4th version according to pinkfloydarchives has a sleeve printed by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd, and they don't mention that specific company inner sleeve.
I am inclined to go with pinkfloydarchives since I have an exact match to what is described by them, though of cause I cannot list mine for sale here since it does not exactly match discogs description. - Sounds incredible. It is far superior to later presses in terms of texture and dynamics, as well as having a good amount of information that is inaudible on later versions. If you are a fan of Syd, this is the holy grail.
- Pressing seems to have been done with care. Extremely quiet on heavyweight vinyl. Mildly compressed and certainly sourced from digital, but who cares? Mick Rock's cover photography was almost certainly sharper on the original.
referencing The Madcap Laughs - The Mick Rock Photo Sessions (CD, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Stereo) MROK-1
Bought mine on a local fair early/mid 90s but it did not include the Canadian CD, BUT exactly this UK version. (Would make more sense than a Canadian release, or not?) https://www.discogs.com/release/28378312-Syd-Barrett-The-Madcap-Laughs- love this pressing, good quite vinyl, Syd's guitar and voice are vibrant like all the music here, feels like he's in the room at times, a real wow for me. I really enjoyed the 2014 'Barret' album of the same label too, not quite a wow but good, tempted to buy 'Opel' on harvest too.
- love my new 2014 pressing, good quite vinyl, Syd's guitar and voice are vibrant like all the music here, feels like he's in the room at times, a real wow for me. I really enjoyed the 'Barret' 2014 pres of the same label too, not quite a wow but good, tempted to buy 'Opel' too.
