I think the man was very talented and a great inspiration to many. Sadly, though, I think his story has become a fine example of the down side of drugs.

Yes, he had a breakdown and then went off the drugs, living with his mother until she died and then alone.

Here's an interview with his nephew: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=RNWG,RNWG:2005-02,RNWG:en&q=syd+barrett+quotes

Oh it started about the time of 'A Momentary Lapse of Reason' I guess.

Oh right, I suppose so.
I like The Division Bell, but don't have anything released between that and The Wall.

The Final Cut really wasn't that great either, it has to be said. Had its moments...but a big let-down after The Wall.

This is a big shock.

Pink Floyd have never been sh1t, probably the best rock group ever.


Unless you are a boyzown fan or something like them.

Hate to crash in on your little mourning party, but the best band ever is still Led Zeppelin. No discussion.

I think it's Boyzone actually.

Aahhh the embarrassment. Is this best I can do?

Led Zep were never exactly what you'd call raw, something Iggy Pop & Syd Barrett both were in their different ways. And who can listen to "Whole Lotta Love" today without embarrassment?
