Syd Barrett: Crazy Diamond: The Dawn Of Pink Floyd

A revised and expanded edition of the original version updated after his death in 2006. Crazy Diamond is the best-selling biography of Syd Barrett, the legendary founder of Pink Floyd whose all too brief flash of erratic brilliance has become one of rock’s greatest enigmas.Barrett left the group Pink Floyd in 1968 amid tales of acid induced madness. He made two solo albums which became cult cclassics, and then disappeared, only to become the subject of numerous “Where’s Syd?” investigations. Includes many rare photographs and a foreword by Julian Cope.
