MMW: Syd Barrett

February 16, 2014

Syd Barrett was a founding member of Pink Floyd. He was the frontman and the main songwriter in the early years (before prisms and pigs and all of that). After being ousted from the band for strange and schizophrenic behavior, believed to be caused by a heavy reliance on psychedelic drugs such as LSD, he recorded two solo albums and many, many outtakes. Disappearing into the countryside in the late 70’s, he became a mythical figure who loved painting, gardening, and bicycling. Most of his songs are whimsical or childish and are about fairy tales or love.
