Hello Friends! We're kicking the year off proper today, with an album I have had requested from the moment I started Mixology, and that is The Piper At The Gates of Dawn by Pink Floyd. The only LP released by the group under Syd Barrett's leadership, this album truly is something else, with seemingly disconnected ideas strung together to somehow make a psychedelic classic. Never remixed, this album was issued in 1967 in both Mono and Stereo, and oh boy, do we have plenty to dig into here. Prepare for extra instrumentation, flanging, phasing, echo, egregious panning - the whole shebang! So, without further ado, take up thy stethoscope and walk with me to find out if the somewhat elusive mono mix of this album is the one to seek out, or if you should be going into interstellar overdrive in stereo!

Happy Listening,
