absolutely mental bloke, great musician and a top notch songwriter. all the cool people are dying out :cry: Title: RIP Syd Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, July 11, 2006, 16:12:27 I'm surprised he lasted this long....I first saw the Floyd in 69, just after Syd left, but his influence was still in the early stuff which I liked eg Astronomy Domine...and Piper at the Gates of Dawn stuff.
Got both of the solo albums...with their charming quirky songs on....not listened to them for years. RIP Syd. Title: RIP Syd Post by: quinnismyhero on Wednesday, July 12, 2006, 07:53:03 RIP Syd - you will never be forgotten, you crazy diamond

Should be playing songs featuring him, not about him. Could be a bit "progressive" for R2 though!
