There have been a number of Syd Barrett compilations but, remarkably, An Introduction to Syd Barrett is the first to combine Pink Floyd material with his solo recordings, so it truly provides an introduction in a way no previous collection has. It's possible to quibble that there are a few Floyd songs that should have made it here -- mostly selections from The Piper at the Gates of Dawn, including "Astronomy Domine" and "Lucifer Sam," but this favors the non-LP early singles "Arnold Layne," "See Emily Play," and "Apples and Oranges," which do point the way toward such solo cuts as "Octopus," "Baby Lemonade," "Terrapin," "Gigolo Aunt," and "Effervescing Elephant," all present and accounted for here. Some may also quibble about inclusions of new mixes for "Here I Go," "Octopus," "She Took a Long Cool Look," "Dominoes," and "Matilda Mother," preferring the original mixes, but these new mixes don't call attention to themselves nor do they detract from the first disc to provide a strong, concise introduction to Barrett's twisted genius. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Editorial reviews 4 stars out of 5 -- 'Bob Dylan Blues' is a charming reminder of the gentle low-key wit of which Barrett was capable...
Uncut
4 stars out of 5 -- AN INTRODUCTION tactfully steers us back to the source and accords respect where respect is due for Pink Floyd's spectral absentee figurehead.
Record Collector
4 stars out of 5 -- The contrast between his zesty Floydian days...and the lethargic isolationism of his solo work has never sounded more heartbreaking.
