whether you were introduced to them in college by every retarded freshman who LOVED to talk about how rad it is to get high and listen to the wall while watching the wizard of oz on mute or you're just a hippie, stoner, prog, rock lover like me, today is a sad day for pink floyd fans.
syd barrett, 60, who suffered from an lsd-induced breakdown while at the peak of his career in the sixties, died last Friday.
a recluse for the past few decades, barrett was a founding member of pink floyd and a gifted musician. he was famous for his innovative guitar playing, experimenting with feedback and distortion and using props such as a zippo lighter to get a unique sound from his fender esquire.
rest in peace little buddy.
