Crazy Diamond

I find it kind of odd that Syd Barrett’s death was announced on the very same day Pink Floyd’s new DVD was released. “Pulse” came out on 7/11, the very same day the world found out Barrett’s pulse stopped. (It was reported that he died several days prior.)

Also oddly coincidental, or not, I lost my virginity to the song “Comfortably Numb.”

Pulse, the original and very crappy live CD, originally came out in 1995. The re-release is timed oddly though. Even funnier is the amount of press Syd is getting considering his 2 album contribution. Granted, I need to dig up "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn", I'm sure it is genius.

I can't quite place his expression. Trepidity, bewilderment, awe?
