Opel captures the creative genius of Syd Barrett, the enigmatic founder of Pink Floyd, during his post-band solo years. This collection, originally recorded between 1968 and 1970, offers a rare glimpse into Barrett's haunting lyricism and kaleidoscopic pop sensibilities, exploring both his fragility and brilliance as a songwriter.

Featuring alternative takes and previously unreleased tracks, Opel sheds new light on Barrett's studio sessions, highlighting the early versions and spontaneous moments that defined his solo work. Joined by members of Soft Machine on select tracks, this release is an essential listen for fans seeking deeper cuts and a more intimate connection to Syd Barrett’s singular artistry.
