Yes, in 'Random Precision'. I wouldn't say "horrible quality." A little rough. No worse than King Crimson's "Epitaph" Vols. III & IV. For many years (until the mid-90's) those BBC versions of "Scream" and "Vegetable Man" were the only versions you could find on bootleg LP here in the U.S. (or at least the only version *I* could find, and I was looking!) We're lucky to have them at all! I love those old BBC shows!Raglani wrote: Wasn't it in Random Precision that Peter Jenner states that Nick did the vocals on that one? Isn't there a BBC version with Syd on lead vocals floating around on boots in (taped from the radio) horrible quality?

I would ask for a minute of his time. If he said OK then I would have told him that his music has been such a positive thing in my life and I would simply say thank you. That's all I would want him to hear.

I would ask him does he fancy a swift pint down the local and a game of pool.

What would he put into a Piper at the Gates of Dawn Immersion box set? Not just music-wise but the little bits and bobs. Would marbles and scarves be a bit too boring?

How would Barrett know? Ask Italy! It's their taste.my breakfast. wrote:I would ask him why he is so popular in Italy.
I would ask him to perform all his songs, including the lost ones.
And if he does, I'll record them all. (Do I need special equipment, for recording ghosts?)
