Syd Barrett, RIP

Founding member of The Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett, died a few days ago according to a press release from the band. The cause of death wasn't released, but MSNBC has an article on Barrett. Barrett, who has been living quietly in his hometown of Cambridge (England) under his original name (Roger Barrett) was 60 years old.

May his soul find the peace in its next life that it sought in this one.

Here are a couple of old Pink Floyd videos featuring songs by Barrett.
