I always wondered how Jim Morrisons LSD regimen compared to his. Jim spent a fair amount of time surviving off canned beans and LSD, living on someone's roof.

Keith "Syd" Barrett founded the band, gave it its name, and wrote most of the early songs that led Pink Floyd in the direction of psychadelic rock and gave them their early success. When he was left behind, the band struggled to reinvent themselves until they dove into the madness that took Syd which heavily influenced DSotM and WYWH. If they hadn't chosen that direction, the band likely would have imploded into just another footnote in history. Sounds easily quantifiable to me especially since PF wouldn't have had the subject material to create DSotM and WYWH without Syd. |

Anyone with schizophrenia in their family needs to be REAL careful with hallucinogenic stuff. |

His solo music is a mess, he even forgets lyrics and just starts humming on some songs, but it’s not all bad. The first song my kids memorized as little kids was Effervescing Elephant.

The only thing that you can guess about a broken down old man... is that he is a survivor.
The man is heartless and jaded. By this point he's probably comfortable with it. - SmilingBandit |
