^^^ I'm a regular member of this forum, get yet trolls right dude !!!
what's a "yet troll"? You're not a troll yet but working on it?
Why are you not mentioning the hell Syd put on the other band members? Musicians have been kicked out for less reasons than Sud has. How he was impossible to work with and be around with during the promotion and tour of Piper? Or that he constantly embarrassed the band in interviews, how the first American tour was a nightmare because of him. How he was impossible to write a song with trying to make the follow up to Piper. That you forget to mention.
But fanboys are impossible to have a conversation with, so whatever "dude"...
Well, this thread certainly veered off the beaten path and proverbially slammed into The Wall.
Gilmour and Wright certainly helped Syd after he left Floyd in the studio with his 2 solo efforts in 1970 (with Waters providing some production work on Madcap Laughs), but then they lost track of him, which often happens. Given the 5 year interval, and Syd's radically different look in 1975, it is easy to see that the band didn't recognize him, particularly in a busy studio setting with people filing in an out all of the time. Nick Mason said he was "horrified" when Gilmour finally identified him, and Waters was reportedly "reduced to tears". That is how radically different he looked.
Whatever, fact remains Syd's longtime buddies AND band members didn't even try to speak to him, call him, give him a nudge, verify with security who that man was, what he was doing there, etc etc. .....too many contradictions by band members who DID NOT want to see or talk to Syd !!!

...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...
I don't know why this thread title got changed but yes, The Dark Side of the Moon is my proof for lightning in a bottle it's possible to capture. Full potential utilised.
YOU sir (better ??!) are rude because you jump to conclusions, don't fully and/or grasp other posters' comments and you don't base yourself on sound facts when you post.
Oh, by the way, Syd's PF "friends" NEVER recognized Syd before AND after he left !! FYI :)!
I vaguely remember Wind of the Willows. Back to the original topic here, DSOTM incarnates and consolidates Floyd's psychedelic knack, with songs like Money and others. Syd WAS PF incarnate. Since Syd's departure from this planet, PF have lost, thru the years, the gist of renewing their exquisitely psychedelic legacy. They moved away from Syd's original dream and became more and more pop. There will never be another Syd Barrett, no matter how hard Gilmour tries.
again, Gilmour has never tried to be Syd or make people forget about Syd, I've never heard, read or seen David talk badly about Syd. I don't know what you're talking about. In fact David helped Syd with Madcap Laughs (Roger did, too).
YOU don't know what you're talking about dude. If you don't know the facts, then don't comment.
IT IS WELL-DOCUMENTED that during the June 5th, 1975 Abbey Road Studio reunion of PF (the recording session for Wish you here precisely!), when Syd Barrett made an unannounced visit there, Wright thought Syd was a friend of Waters', Waters didn't recognize him at all and GILMOUR PRESUMED SYD WAS AN E.M.I. STAFF MEMBER !! In simple words, NONE of the other Floyd members recognized their "beloved friend" Syd Barrett !! Syd was obviously very sick, had lost all of his hair and was overweight, BUT for a bunch of long-term "friends" NOT to recognize him or even ask Syd who he was, is TOTALLY and INSANELY UNACCEPTABLE on behalf of Gilmour and Co. !! When I saw my old high school mate after 30 odd years, my mates and I immediately recognized him despite his baldness, sickened complexion, and his overweight state!! Yeah, nice "FRIENDS" Syd had alright !!!
So, before you comment any of my posts, get informed of the facts:)!!!!!!
Considering he looked totally different, it's no surprise they did not recognize him at first.
The only rude person here I see is YOU dude :)!! Don't I really know what I'm talking about, hmmmmmmmmmmmm ??!
I recognized a friend who I hadn't seen for ages and he was worse than Syd in that photo.......BUT ALL ODėF HIS MATES INCLUDING ME RECOGNIZED HIM AFTER 30 YEARS....SO ????!
many peopLE ARE SIMPLE ACQUAINTANCES not friends...I mean TRUE friends :)
how am I rude?
"dude"?! really?

PF was never a "mainstream" band (for whatever that term is worth). People who don't appreciate Syd don't appreciate psychedelic music, it's as simple as that actually.
