8/10
Fans will want to see this but will be critical

Worst narrator voice in documentary history. Like a robot received-pronunciation female on mandrax so that aint cool .... not a bit

Strobes on images to make sure you understand it is sy-key-delic

Good footage from the times tho; bits one has not seen elsewhere ... lots of Joe Boyd (Music producer and creator of the Underground UFO club) lots of one of Syd's girlfriend very eloquent she is too

So who is this made for then? Not quite sure maybe folks who are brand-new to The Floyd ... Youngsters more than likely .... but and since there is a fair amount of unseen before footage all will find something here

Ha also if you interview someone do not crank up the music when they reply because then you cannot hear what they say .... a difficult concept? ....

For me too Syd-heavy. Syd was there for 2 years tops in the entire story so the deification never sat right with this fan of the Floyd here ... Later phases with no Syd are more significant to many and not really shown here ... but hey .... good on the early days ....
