Syd Barrett

Those of you who know who this is, he died today at 60. May he RIP. One more musical genius gone.

Re: Syd Barrett

Syd Barrett was a great songwriter, but he did way too much acid. If you read about the history of Pink Floyd, David Gilmour basically replaced Syd Barrett after he more or less went nuts. There are all kinds of strange thing you can read about Syd Barrett having done. The Pink Floyd song "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" was written about Barrett after he left the band.

In the words of my boss at work, "Dude! You took too much, man..."

Re: Syd Barrett

Yeah, I know, but he was still a brilliant musician.
