Recorded : London, late 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.
3 - Let's Roll Another One (Barrett) 03:09
Recorded : London, Mike Leonard's house, January 1967
Primary source : cassette recording
Source for the tree : unkown gen copy
Instrumental rehearsal for the song that later became "Candy and a Currant Bun". This rehearsal took place at Mike Leonard's house and was recorded by Irene Winsby.
4 - Arnold Layne (Barrett) – acetate 02:34
Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, January 23-25, 1967
Source for the tree : "Anthology II" RoIO CD
Fades in 2 seconds after the actual start, strange edit skipping organ solo.

7 - Candy and a Currant Bun (Barrett) - acetate 01:59
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.
8 - Candy and a Currant Bun (Barrett) - mono 02:43
Primary source : "Arnold Layne" single (1st single), released March 11, 1967
9 - Interstellar Overdrive (B, W, W, M) – demo 06:57
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.

Recorded : London, early January 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
This obscure studio version of "Interstellar Overdrive" was used during an interview broadcast in early 1967 by CBC Canadian Radio.
11 - Interstellar Overdrive (B, W, W, M) - Abbey Rd outtake 00:40
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, March 14-15, 1967
Primary source : Capital Radio broadcast ("Pink Floyd Story"), December 1976 - January 1977
Source for the tree : unknown gen copy from Capital Radio broadcast
Outtake from "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions.
12 - Interstellar Overdrive (B, W, W, M) - mono single vers. 05:13
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 01:05
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, March 19-20, 1967
Outtake from "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions. All the instruments are heavily undermixed. This is nearly an unplugged version.
14 - Scarecrow (Barrett) - mono 02:07
Primary source : "See Emily Play" single (2nd single), released June 16, 1967
15 - Astronomy Dominé (Barrett) - Abbey Road outtake 03:26
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, April 11-12, 1967
Outtake from "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions. It includes an interview with Floyd's manager Peter Jenner.
16 - See Emily Play (Barrett) - acetate 02:49
Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, May 18 & 21, 1967
Source for the tree : "Dawn Of The Piper" RoIO CD
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...) and the very end is uncut.
17 - See Emily Play (Barrett) - mono 02:52
18 - See Emily Play (Barrett) - fake stereo 02:49
Source for the tree : "A CD Full of Secrets" CD
19 - Flaming (Barrett) - mono 02:43
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, June 7 & 27, 1967
Primary source : "Flaming" US single (3rd US single), released November 2, 1967.
"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.
20 - Untitled (uncredited) 01:31
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, 1967
This untitled outtake was probably recorded around the same time "Jugband Blues" and "Vegetable Man" were recorded.
On a lot of circulating copies, the title of this outtake is "Sunshine", but it's wrong ("Sunshine" was a working title for something that was later included in "Matilda Mother", and no outtake ever surfaced for this track). On some other copies, the title of this outtake is "Experiment".
21 - Silas Lang (Barrett) 02:39
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, 1967 or 1968
Source for the tree : "Vegetable Man, Where Are You" RoIO LP
There's a strong debate about the exact origin of this obscure outtake. Some think it was recorded by the Floyd during the "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" sessions, in June 1967. Other think it comes from a solo Barrett session in May 1968. This outtake contains the early chords of Syd 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.
22 - Scream Thy Last Scream (Barrett) - mono 04:27
Recorded : London, Abbey Road Studios, August 7-8, 1967
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.
1 - Scream Thy Last Scream (Barrett) - stereo 04:30
On this version, the instruments and vocals are mainly mono. However, some stereo effects can be heard, especially on the background noises (high pitched voices).
2 - Vegetable Man (Barrett) - mono 02:23
Recorded : London, Sound Techniques Studios, September 5-6, 1967
Source for the tree : "Magnesium Proverbs" RoIO CD
This was intended to be the B-side of "Scream Thy Last Scream" single.
3 - Vegetable Man (Barrett) - alternate mono 02:28
Alternate mono version, with more laughter at the end, without echo and delay.
4 - Vegetable Man (Barrett) - stereo 02:23
Stereo version, with background vocals and delays effects mixed louder.
