The healthy Syd Barrett was very creative. Syd and Pink Floyd went well together. The first album The Piper..... is a good record. Unfortunately Syd had the wrong friends. His bad times started in the shared flat where Syd lived. He hung out too much with junkies. If you take LSD several times a week it's not good for your brain. Syd's second solo album is better than Pink Floyd's records 2, 3 and 5. Syd Barrett could have become something real!!! He failed as a painter and musician. I'm interested in how Syd lived with his illness???
