Description:

Released in 1968. The second album was produced amidst turbulent times, with Syd Barrett falling into a mentally unstable state due to drug overdose and leaving the band, and David Gilmour being brought in as a new guitarist.The album, with a cosmic psychedelic sound in the style of the previous album, produced such stage highlights as "Hymn to the Sun," written by Roger Waters and inspired by a William Burroughs novel, and the title track, a four-part song that runs for 12 minutes. The album was a highlight on stage during this period. This album was also an important starting point for the band, which lost Barrett in the middle of the album's production, as they moved on to a four-piece lineup.It reached No. 9 in the U.K. charts.
