Recorded : London, Thompson Recording Studios, May 15, 1965
Primary source : EMIdisc acetate
Source for the tree : "A Fish out of Water" RoIO CD & "Outtakes from Outer Space" RoIO CD
These two (unreleased) songs appear on a two-sided 7" acetate discovered early 1988.
Whilst some experts consider this as a fake, Miles reproduces in his book a setlist
including "Lucy Leave" for the gig the band played on October 14, 1966.

Recorded : London, Thompson Recording Studios, October 31, 1966
Primary source : ?
Source for the tree : unkown gen copy from outtake
Instrumental rehearsals for this song that later became "Candy and a Current Bun".
This obscure outtake probably comes from the October 1966 session at Thompson Recording
Studios (where the first studio version of "Interstellar Overdrive" was also recorded, and later used
in the "San Francisco" movie).

Primary source : EMIdisc acetate
Source for the tree : "Anthology II" RoIO CD
Alternate lyrics ("please just walk with me" while on the regular single version it's "please
just f*** with me"), different verse structure, no organ and guitar solos.
Some people refer to this version as being "Let's Roll Another One" from October 1966 sessions at
Thompson Recording Studios, but since the instrumental tracks are the same as the regular single
version, this probably comes from the same January 1967 sessions at Sound Techniques Studios.

9 - Interstellar Overdrive (Barrett, Waters, Wright, Mason) - demo
Recorded : ?
Primary source : ?
Source for the tree : unknown gen copy
This obscure demo is probably a fake. However, it has acquired a certain fame in the
trading circle of Pink Floyd fans. We included it here, in order to let you make your own
opinion. Some say it was recorded on a cheap cassette recorder, by two guys playing
guitar simultaneously, sometime during the 80s. Note that the first riff after the intro is
identical to the bass riff that can be heard on the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" version,
and that earlier versions of the song (on "San Francisco" soundtrack or "Tonite Let's All
Make Love in London" soundtrack) don't contain this particular riff. This leads to the
conclusion that this "demo" was probably recorded after the release of "The Piper At The
Gates Of Dawn" album.
10 - Interstellar Overdrive (Barrett, Waters, Wright, Mason) - Sound Techniques outtake
Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 31 - February 1, 1967
Primary source : CBC Canadian Radio broadcast, early 1967
Source for the tree : "Stone Rust" RoIO CD & "Dark Globe" RoIO CD
& "The Sights And Sounds Of Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd" RoIO CD
Extracts from the 3rd studio version of "Interstellar Overdrive" can be heard in the
background, during an interview broadcast in early 1967 by CBC Canadian Radio.
Pink Floyd recorded 4 different studio versions of "Interstellar Overdrive". The first version was
recorded in October 1966 at Thompson Recording Studios, and was later used in the 1968 "San
Francisco" movie. The second version was recorded on January 11, 1967, at Sound Techniques
Studios, and was used in the "Tonite Let's All Make Love in London" movie. The third version was
recorded during the "Arnold Layne" / "Candy and a Current Bun" sessions at Sound Techniques
Studios. Only extracts from this version have surfaced, they can be heard in the background during
the CBC broadcast from early 1967. The fourth version was recorded at Abbey Road in March 1967,
and is the regular version that can be found on "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" album.

Primary source : "Arnold Layne" French EP, released 1967

This version is unique, because it only contains the basic track, without overdubs. It
fades out before the actual end of the song.
13 - Scarecrow (Barrett) - Abbey Road outtake
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, March 19-20, 1967
Primary source : BBC broadcast, 1967

All the instruments are heavily undermixed. This is nearly an unplugged version ?.

Primary source : EMI disc acetate

This version is very close to the regular one, there are only slight changes in the mix
(vocals are undermixed, organ is more in the front...). Note that the very end is uncut.

19 - Flaming (Barrett) - mono
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, June 7 & 27, 1967
Primary source : "Flaming" US single (3rd US single), released November 2, 1967.
Source for the tree : "A CD Full of Secrets" CD
"Flaming" was not on the first US release of "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" album, and
was then released as a single. This version is different from the regular (stereo) mix:
background noises are mixed much louder.
In fact, this version is identical to the version on the mono edition of "The Piper at the Gates of
Dawn" album. Curiously, on the 30th Anniversary Mono Edition CD released in 1997, one chord of
the final chords sequence was edited out.

This track was probably recorded during the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions.
Malcom Jones, in his book "The Making of the Madcap Laughs", suggests this is an early version of
"Remember a Day". Some think it's in fact a part of "Matilda Mother", that was recorded the same
day ...

This outtake was probably recorded during the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions.
These are the early chords of Barrett's song "Swan Lee (Silas Lang)". Note that the piano
and jazz tunes may be due to a technical error while dubbing the original multitrack
master tape onto cassette. The definitive version of "Swan Lee" was recorded by Barrett
one year later and released on "Opel" in 1988. Some think this outtake comes from a
Barrett solo session.
22 - Scream Thy Last Scream (Barrett) - mono

Primary source : EMIdisc acetate

This was intended to be the A-side of Pink Floyd's fourth single (after "Apples and
Oranges" single). But due to Syd's departure from the band, it remained unreleased.

Faster ending fade out.

There's an edit during the intro, the 2nd verse ("Now is the time to be aware...") is
missing, the beginning of the instrumental part after the last verse was cut, and there's
an early fade out.
11 - Corporal Clegg (Waters) - video version
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, January 31, 1968
Primary source : Belgian promo video
Source for the tree : unknown gen copy from Belgian promo video
This mono version has an alternate ending: the last chorus (just after "His boots were
very clean") and the following instrumental part are alternate takes from the regular
version.
12 - It Would Be So Nice (Wright) - mono
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 5-12-21, 1968
Primary source : "It Would Be So Nice" single (4th single), released April 12, 1968
Source for the tree : "The Pink Floyd Early Singles" CD
Due to the "Evening Standard" mention in the original lyrics, the Floyd was forced to
return in the studio to change it into "Daily Standard". The original "Evening Standard"
version doesn't seem to have surfaced.
13 - It Would Be So Nice (Wright) - promo edit
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 5-12-21, 1968
Primary source : "It Would Be So Nice" UK promo single, released April 12, 1968

The central "It would be so nice" chorus is only sung once, and the first lines of the
second verse ("Everybody cares about the weather ... what a waste of time") are edited.
14 - It Would Be So Nice (Wright) - fake stereo
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, February 12-13 & March 5-12-21, 1968
Primary source : "The Best of the Pink Floyd" compilation, released 1970
& "Masters of Rock" compilation, released 1973
Source for the tree : "A CD Full of Secrets" CD
Curiously, on "A CD Full of Secrets", the right and left channels were inverted, comparing to the
original fake stereo version on "The Best of the Pink Floyd" and "Masters of Rock".
15 - Julia Dream (Waters) - demo
Recorded : ?
Primary source : ?
Source for the tree : unknown gen copy
This obscure demo is probably a fake. However, it has acquired a certain fame in the
trading circle of Pink Floyd fans. We included it here, in order to let you make your own
opinion. It has surfaced on the same tape that contains the (fake) demo of "Interstellar
Overdrive" (one can hear the beginning of "Interstellar Overdrive" right after the end of
"Julia Dream"). So, this was probably recorded by the same guys.
