How influential do you think Pink Floyd’s original lunatic Syd Barrett was?
Many artists have acknowledged Syd Barrett’s influence on their work. Paul McCartney and Pete Townshend were early fans; Jimmy Page, Brian Eno, and The Damned all expressed interest in working with him. David Bowie has repeatedly stated that Syd Barrett was his musical hero; T-Rex’s Marc Bolan wanted to BE him.
How much influence do you think he has had on the British music industry?
It was Marc Bolan who said as much in the first place!
A great deal especially where Pink Floyd is concerned.Also keep in mind the time at which Syd and Pink Floyd were beginning to
come into there own musically.The 60′s were all about the cont
inued birth of Rock and Roll as well as finding and expressing onesself.That along with the introduction of drugs coupled with fame and stardom influenced people in many ways.Unfortunately
Syd crashed and burned long before his time along with such greats as jimi Hendrix brian jones and jim morrison.All casualtys
of there time and the enviroment they lived in.
