The Madcap Laughs No More

Syd Barrett, a founding member of The Pink Floyd, has passed into the great beyond.

While Syd has remained in seclusion for many years, his mysterious legend and legion of fans continued to grow. His undeniable talent swirled through mental problems and the haze of drug induced psychedelia until he could no longer function within the band.

While many people have never seen the Syd Barrett led Pink Floyd, you can view "Scarecrow", "See Emily Play", "Astronomy Domine", "Apples and Oranges", and a home video of Syd lost in the woods.

If you're more the reading type, visit the Syd Barrett archives. Head over to The Hype Machine and look for his music.
