Syd Barret - RIP


Syd Barret, the Crazy Diamond, passed away las Sunday at the age of 60 from problems derivated from diabetes.

I've always thought that The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is the work of a genius and Syd really was one also shown on his two solo albums.

i recently read in the BBC that at a Live8 reunion gig, just prior to striking up "wish you were here", gilmore was reported to say "this one is for everyone who couldn't be here tonight. especially Syd."

i listened to that record last night. must say i've been down ever since Syd died (along w/ bill miller, sinatra's famed long-time pianist).

no doubt, britney spears will live forever. egads!
