According to Ian Barrett's blog, the notebook included will be Syd's "Fart Enjoy." He describes it as cut up word play and imagery pasted onto traditional painting. Sounds interesting! BTW, Ian's blog can be found at http://gibber.blogspot.com/

They printed that in Mojo magazine a few years back. Is an interesting read if nothing else. It's the sort of thing i imagine some hardcore fans saying is complete and utter genius and others will say is just stupid and childish :?

That probably means I'll be saying that it's complete and utter genius :)

In that case, don't bother, Austin. You can win him, but it'll cost you a lot of headache, believe me I know ;) .

All right, Andrei. I think I've taken my fair share of painkillers already this month, so I'll trust you and step down. :D

They weren't arguments, we were merely re-educating you. :D

I still can't believe it's true...

Until I put Disc 3 into a player and see 9 songs listed...

And didn't SYD BARRETT DO THE MIX ON THE MONO PIPER???

Also

I recommend getting ALL MONO LP'S from the 60's.

I luckily own a genuine Saucerful MONO, 7 BEATLES LP's IN MONO 2 HENDRIX in MONO, ANIMALS, YARDBIRDS ETC.

MONO is FANTASTIC.

Cant' wait for this
