RIP Syd Barret

Syd Barret has died.
Syd Barret was a founding member of Pink Floyd, and the main creative force behind the landmark Piper at the Gates of Dawn.

Barret was forced to leave the group in 1968 due to his increasing mental instability. But continued to serve as an inspiration not just for the other members of Pink Floyd, but many other musicians as well, including David Bowie.
