sorry but songs like astronomy domaine and interstellar overdrive are great enough to make this whole album worth a listen. not that the rest of the songs aren't good, the whole thing just comes together beautifully.
also listen to syd barrett's solo stuff if you haven't already.
OMG and see emily play
i used to be obsessed with that song
