The ultimate tribute to a man who holds an unparalleled place in rock mythology.
Syd Barrett remains one of the world’s true cult figures. Mick Rock’s friendship with Syd began in Cambridge in the mid-1960s, and flourished when they both subsequently lived in London. This magnificent book covers the period 1969–’71, including the iconic photo sessions that culminated in the cover for Syd Barrett’s first solo album, The Madcap Laughs.
Limited edition of just 950 copies in total. The first 320 copies in the edition were Deluxe copies, which sold out soon after publication in 2001. Only 630 Collector copies will ever be created (copies numbered from 321 to 950).
Superbly printed on 200gsm matt art, acid-free paper with gilt page edging, the Collector copies are quarter-bound in orange leather and turquoise binding cloth, blocked with gold lettering. Collector copies are housed in an archival slipcase, screen-printed with images of Syd Barrett onto the front and back.
This copy comes with an additional exclusive Mick Rock estate-stamped fine art print (8\” x 10\” | 20.3 cm x 25.4 cm).
