Valora este álbum

The Peel Session es un álbum de Syd Barrett, publicado en 1988 por Strange Fruit. El disco incluye 5 canciones, entre ellas «Terrapin», «Gigolo Aunt», «Baby Lemonade» y «Effervescing Elephant».

"The Peel Session" es un EP que documenta la única sesión de radio en solitario que Syd Barrett grabó para el legendario programa de John Peel en la BBC, en febrero de 1970. Acompañado únicamente por David Gilmour en el bajo y Jerry Shirley en la percusión, Barrett interpreta cinco canciones de su álbum "The Madcap Laughs". La grabación es de una intimidad y una crudeza extraordinarias. Es el sonido de Syd Barrett en su forma más pura y vulnerable, sin los overdubs de estudio. Aunque breve, esta sesión es un documento histórico de un valor incalculable, una de las pocas grabaciones profesionales en directo de su carrera en solitario y un testimonio de la belleza frágil de sus canciones.

  1. Terrapin3:02

    Letra

    I really love you and I mean you The star above you, crystal blue Well, oh, baby, my hair's on end about you... I wouldn't see you and I love to I fly above you, yes, I do Well, oh baby, my hair's on end about you... Floating, bumping, noses dodge a tooth The fins are luminous Fangs all 'round the clown Is dark below the boulders hiding all The sunlight's good for us 'Cause we're the fishes and all we do The move about is all we do Well, oh, baby, my hair's on end about you... Floating, bumping, noses dodge a tooth The fins are luminous Fangs all 'round the clown Is dark below the boulders hiding all The sunlight's good for us 'Cause we're the fishes and all we do The move about is all we do Well, oh, baby, my hairs on end about you... I really love you and I mean you The star above you, crystal blue Well, oh, baby, my hair's on end about you...
  2. Gigolo Aunt3:35

    Letra

    Grooving around in a trench coat with the satin entrail Seems to be all around in tin and lead pail, we pale Jiving on down to the beach to see the blue and the gray Seems to be all and it's rosy-it's a beautiful day! Will you please keep on the track 'cos I almost want you back 'Cos I know what you are, you are a gigolo aunt, you're a gigolo aunt! Yes I know what you are, you are a gigolo aunt, you're a gigolo aunt! Heading down with the light, the dust in your way She was angrier than, than her watershell male Life to this love to me, heading me down to me thunderbird shale Seems to be all and it's rosy, it's a beautiful day! Will you please keep on the track 'cos I almost want you back 'Cos I know what you are, you are a gigolo aunt, you're a gigolo aunt! Yes I know what you are, you are a gigolo aunt, you're a gigolo aunt! Grooving on down in a knapsack superlative day Some wish she move and just as she can move jiving away She made the scene should have been-superlative day Everything's all and it's rosy, it's a beautiful day! Will you please keep on the track 'cos I almost want you back 'Cos I know what you are, you are a gigolo aunt, you're a gigolo aunt! Yes I know what you are, you are a gigolo aunt, you're a gigolo aunt!
  3. Baby Lemonade2:30

    Letra

    In the sad town Cold iron hands clap The party of clowns outside Rain falls in gray far away Please, please, baby lemonade In the evening sun going down When the earth streams in, in the morning Send a cage through the post Make your name like a ghost Please, please, baby lemonade I'm screaming, I met you this way You're nice to me like ice In the clock they sent through a washing machine Come around, make it soon, so alone Please, please, baby lemonade In the sad town Cold iron hands clap The party of clowns outside Rain falls in gray far away Please, please, baby lemonade In the evening sun going down When the earth streams in, in the morning Send a cage through the post Make your name like a ghost Please, please, baby lemonade
  4. Effervescing Elephant0:57

    Letra

    An Effervescing Elephant with tiny eyes and great big trunk Once whispered to the tiny ear The ear of one inferior that by next June he'd die, oh yeah! Because the tiger would roam The little one said, "Oh my goodness I must stay at home" And every time I hear a growl I'll know the tiger's on the prowl and I'll be really safe, you know the elephant he told me so Everyone was nervy, oh yeah! and the message was spread to zebra, mongoose, and the dirty hippopotamus who wallowed in the mud and chewed his spicy hippo-plankton food and tended to ignore the word preferring to survey a herd of stupid water bison, oh yeah And all the jungle took fright and ran around for all the day and the night but all in vain, because, you see the tiger came and said "Who me? you know I wouldn't hurt not one of you I'd much prefer something to chew and your all to scant." Oh yeah! He ate the elephant
  5. Two Of A Kind2:28

    Letra

    Open your eyes and don't be blind can't you see we're two of a kind? I've got to say this, I hope you don't mind I love you, we're two of a kind Just ask yourself and you will find we go together, we're two of a kind no use protesting, be resigned baby you know, we're two of a kind I knew it when I saw you I felt it a little more when I talked with you at first all my blues dispersed I couldn't disguise my complete surprise when you were feeling it too I'm in love with you, I'm in love with you... Open your eyes and don't be blind can't you see we're two of a kind? I've got to say this, I hope you don't mind I love you, we're two of a kind
