'Dried Flowers,' the earliest known painting by Pink Floyd's founding member, the late Syd Barrett, is going under auction this month.
Upcoming documentary 'Have You Got It Yet?: The Story of Syd Barrett and Pink Floyd' will detail Barrettโs life and time in Pink Floyd with unprecedented access.
Every Friday, the band will post rare or unreleased tracks previously not available online. It'll be called 'Syd, Roger, Richard, Nick, and David โ An Evolving Pink Floyd Playlist.'
The iconic orange and blue floorboards were photographed on Syd Barrett's 1968 solo debut, 'The Madcap Laughs.'
'Have You Got It Yet?' explores the enigmatic Syd Barrett, who wrote Pink Floydโs first two hits and even came up with the bandโs name.
If anybody in modern music is taken as a stereotype of the genius/weirdness combination it is late Roger Keith โSydโ Barrett, a founder and brief mailman of Pink Floyd, solo artist, painter, and recluse - often most of these things at the same time.
