PINK FLOYD.

APPLES AND ORANGES.

7 inch original single.

Apples and Oranges" (released 1967) is the third UK single by Pink Floyd and the final one written by Syd Barrett. The B-side was Paint Box written by Richard Wright, The song is about a girl whom the narrator meets at the supermarket. It is one of a handful of songs by Pink Floyd which deal directly with love.

The Pink Floyd, along with Barrett, mimed the song on their first US televised performance. After Barrett was replaced by David Gilmour the band recorded a promotional film in Belgium in a fruit market with Waters lip synching.

This was the group's first single that failed to break into the U.K. charts.

Waters blamed the single's sales performance on Norman Smith: "'Apples and Oranges' was destroyed by the production. It's a f-----g good song."

Both sides of the single were mixed in stereo, but the single was issued in mono. The stereo mix of "Paintbox" first appeared on the Relics compilation (1971), and both tracks appeared in stereo on the Maters Of Rock compilation (1974). The other four early U.K. singles were issued in mono originally. "Arnold Layne", "See Emily Play", "It wouls be so nice", and "Point me at the sky" only exist in mono or false stereo, while "Julia Dream and possibly "Careful with that axe Eugene" were remixed for stereo at a later time, for inclusion on Relics. Mono and stereo mixes of "Apples and Oranges" and the mono mix of "Paint Box" are included in the 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition release of Piper At The Gates Of Dawn.
