I love that line

Alone in the clouds all blue
Lying on an eiderdown.
Yippee! You can't see me
But I can you.

Roger Keith Barrett (1946 - 2006)

I just found a Syd Barrett site with loads of info like Syd's on stage gear and rare video footage.
Click http://www.sydbarrett.it/ and go to Stuff/video archive for some awesome vids.
If someone knows how I can extract them, please let me know.

nice one!

my mac is set to open the videos with qucktime, so if you let the vid load, then you can choose to 'save as QT movie'
it depends how your computers set to open the movies. i also have something called "video downloader" (google it, i think its free) which can save any movie that plays in your browser to a flash movie file.
that one works or worked with sites like youtube too, but apparantly youtube are constantly updating their player so that this software wont work.
thanks for the link!

Thanks. I'll try that. The pleasure's mine, the video's yours!

Farewell genius...

Ha! That interviewer is an idiot and doesn't have a clue about the Floyd and he looks pretty unsure of what he's saying too.
Fucking straight head! You tell him guys.
Psychedelic and way ahead of their time is what they were.
Nothing like it!
Turn on, tune in, drop out!
Play it louder and Rock on!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice one quasar!

Oh.. Rest in peace Syd Barrett, thank you for the music.

Check this, I think Mininova is having a Syd Barrett tribute or something.
3 Syd albums featured on their main page.

Well done Mininova.

Never liked Pink Floyd's music, but Syd was pretty badass. RIP.

yeah, someones made a load of torrents to do with syd and early floyd on demonoid too. unfortunetly, most of the early floyd stuff seems to be post syd.

Nikki Sudden died, Syd Barrett's dead now...
A torrent to gather lots of his songs live, interviews, etc...
Equivalent of 6 CDs :

Edit : I haven't downloaded it - too much stuff of a man whose music I never really paid attention to. Still a man who influenced people I respect (Dan Treacy). His lyrics were beautiful.
