It's difficult for a band to recover after losing their primary songwriter, especially when no one else in the band is yet ready to take up the mantle. Such is the story of Pink Floyd and the mental breakdown of their original frontman, Syd Barrett; after the madcap, space age fairy tale of their 1967 debut, 'The Piper at the Gates of Dawn', their second album, 'A Saucerful of Secrets', suffered as the band struggled to figure out their identity without Syd. They would go on to be superstars in the 70s under the leadership of bassist Roger Waters, but their sophomore effort stands in hindsight as the first step in a long, mixed bag of a transitional period.
Mikaela is joined by returning guests Christopher and Patrick plus their 'Old Men Yell at Cloud' cohost Jim Schultz to see if this assessment is fair. Perhaps hindsight will turn out to be this album's best advocate.
