Syd Barrett

I love his stuff with PF and his solo stuff. I think jugband blues was the best song he did either with PF or solo.

I have worked with schizophrenic and schizotypal personalities and they would have a hard time creating their own music that is a remarkable as Syd's

Now, they did create some AMAZING music, but nothing like what he was channeling

Hell yeah Stonehappy! I'll read that shit up

Lot's of great insight here!

Syd was a god, he was, as some would say "that crazy colored light at the end of the tunnel!"
I love that man and all his music! His legacy is tatted on my forearm%)

SHM, that book looks very good indeed. There are indeed a lot of myths about Syd that should be dispelled. Cheers for the heads-up.
