In case you didn’t hear: Syd Barrett died today. He was now 60. In case you were unaware: Syd Barrett founded Pink Floyd. He was then 20. Personally, I think he managed his strangest and most delightful work after leaving Pink Floyd.

I’m not going to try writing some big biographical obituary of the man. I don’t think many people really knew much about him that wasn’t conjecture or urban myth. He was an enigma. That’s all.
