Two years ago the legendary Syd Barrett died. He was, of course, once the primary songwriter for Pink Floyd in it's original incarnation, a man who had retreated to the life of a country hermit by the time Pink Floyd were in their commercial hey day.
He's a cult figure, but more than that one of the primary catalyst for British psychedelic rock
On September 23rd, Dwell Records is releasing Like Black Holes In The Sky: The Tribute To SYD BARRETT. Thank god the bands are appropriately obscure (no Madonna doing Octopus or Britney doing Arnold Layne with Moby)
