I'm surprised at how bummed this news makes me feel. I always felt the Floyd grew less interesting the more they gained commercial success, beginning with when Syd flamed out. I'm oddly drawn to Syd's two bizarre solo projects. His was a unique voice.

I didn't know he'd done two solo projects until reading it in the article, which I didn't link to because it included some nonsense psychological speculation. I'm highly intrigued. Maybe we could arrange a music swap?

I did a little post on his passing. Not much.
