syd barrett

Hows Syd doing now? His he still in Cambridge living with his Mother?
Shine on you Crazy Diamond!!!
I chose that song for my ex-boyfriends funeral, bit morbid but suited him as well as Syd.

Syd's mom is dead. i advise picking up a copy of Crazy Diamond- it's the syd barrett story, the best book out there so far about syd

I read that book, some very interesting stuff in there. I highly recommend it!

and one of my other favorites is
Another Brick in the Wall: The Stories Behind Every Pink Floyd Song by Cliff Jones includes excellent stories by the bandmembers themselves about the meanings of the songs. there are some wrong dates and mispellings, but great pix.

And plenty of inaccuracies.

Not THAT many, and not in what the bandmembers SAY, but photos r mislabeled and few things r outta order. but still well worth the money. answers alot of questions about most songs all the way from the early singles, to "High Hopes." It gives a great sense of where the bandmembers heads were at the time of each album.

Actually, you are wrong.

Where's mad yannis when you need him?

No........... YOU'RE wrong.
