Just wanted to tell you about a new Syd Barrett site just launched
http://www.sydbarrett.com

Arnold Layne is a fine bit of psychedelic 60's pop, you can hear it on the site.

The Barrett family, (in particular Syds sister Rosemary Breen) are behind the site which is supportive of The Syd Barrett Fund, set up to raise funds for arts projects in the mental health sector.

Thanks for the info. The Syd era of Floyd is very cool. They put out some fine singles during that period. One of my favorites is 'Point Me At The Sky'.

LOL. You are correct. It was 1968...i thought Syd was still working with them at that point. Well...i still love Syd!

Great song, mind. I like that immediate post-Syd period when they didn't have a clue what to be.
