Floyd rules
I LOVE anything with Barrett around it, so obviously you can’t get me away from Piper.
I’m more of a fan of Barretts solo work cause again, i can relate SO MUCH to what happened to him with him being a schizoid acid casuality that happened to be a genius.
He actually died while i was in the mental hospital for the first time, it was like a sign or something.
But Syd’s solo work is some of the best music i’ve ever heard, Chris Connelly covered one of my favorite Syd songs No Mans Land.
When i live i die!
Somehow, I didn’t get into them until january of THIS YEAR. I had always heard a few songs here and there, and people always wore the shirts. But not until this year had I heard a sing full-album by them. Friend of mine had finally hooked me up before I went to vegas, listened to the Wish You Were Here album and it was an instant approval. Then “The Wall”, then “Dark Side”, etc. etc. How I neglected this stuff for so long is puzzling. It’s great stuff.
Ah, to hear it again for the first time…oh, well. Enjoy!
