A Saucerful of Secrets is the second studio album by English rock band Pink Floyd. It was recorded at EMI's Abbey Road Studios on various dates from August 1967 to April 1968 and was released on 29 June 1968, through EMI Columbia in the UK, while the album was released on 27 July 1968 in the US by Tower.
The album's recording sessions became difficult: recorded before and after Syd Barrett's departure from the group. Due to Barrett's erratic behaviour becoming increasingly unstable, David Gilmour was brought in, in January 1968. As a result, A Saucerful of Secrets became the only non-compilation Pink Floyd album on which all five band members appeared, the first for Gilmour, with him appearing on five songs ("Let There Be More Light", "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun", "Corporal Clegg", "A Saucerful of Secrets" and "See-Saw"), and the last for Barrett, with him on three ("Remember a Day", "Jugband Blues" and "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun").
