Re: Waters vs. Barrett

what guitar did Dave use on Comfortably Numb? does anyone know exactly the make of it?

Rick is cool. No one takes his music into consideration when they should.

Re: Waters vs. Barrett

Syd probably demonstrated to Roger that nonsense lyrics CAN sell records.

Apart from that, they are like chalk and cheese, so no true comparison is possible.

Just thought you'd like to know,

Re: Waters vs. Barrett

We all know Nick is the one and only true Pink Floyd member.

He's the only one featured in every single floyd album. He's been with em to the very start to the very end.

Nick Mason the true Pink Floyd member :smile:

Re: Waters vs. Barrett

I think it was Peter Jenner who said that Waters always watched Syd closely, kind of learnt how to lead a band from him. My personal opinio is that Waters is a prick. Always loved Syd, he seemed so nice even if he did screw himself over.

cheers

Re: Waters vs. Barrett

True I have to give credit to Waters for writing some exceptional songs. And yes admiration for Syd! I don't know what it is but one just can't help admiring him.

cheers
