One of the pioneers of the progressive rock movement died today at age 60.
His mark will never be forgotten.
Listen to Pink Floyd's Relics to understand his influence.

The Syd is dead, Long live the Syd. 'Piper at the Gates of Dawn' was revolutionary, and 'The Madcap Laughs' & 'Barrett' are both influential. Shine on you crazy diamond...

Sad to hear that. I have never been and never will be a Pink Floyd fan. But, I recognise they have their place in the story of rock music. May Syd find more peace where he is now than he ever knew here on Earth.

Truly a sad day...
Actually, listen to Pipers at the Gates of Dawn.....
Pink Floyd's first album and completely written by Barrett
This man was as influential as Dylan or Lennon if not more
----Shine on You Crazy Diamond------
