Bye Syd Barrett

Just heard that the great Syd Barrett passed away last Friday. I have to say that as my tastes went more indie the past decade or so, he remained one of the few things about Pink Floyd that I still felt like listening to. His influence was widespread, and the Elephant 6 kiddies owed a lot to his music. I still put on Piper at the Gates of Dawn every so often.
