How Do I De-pixelate My Movie?

Roger Keith Barrett, 65 years after 2010

Those who know me know how much I like Roger Keith "Syd" Barrett, beyond his music was the time and manner in which the created. I'm talking about 1964, when he was 18 years and influenced by American jazz and blues band like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, the painter made musician was able to recreate their visions into outer music that broke with all that had been done.

All those visions of Syd in the band planned to begin in 1965 with Roger Waters, Richard Wright, Nick Mason, Bob Klose, the latter were abandoned a year later. This band, which named THE PINK FLOYD Syd after joining the names of blues musicians American Pink Anderson and Floyd Council, would start taking advantage of the musical and artistic genius of Syd, getting the audience love bohemian London and thereby generate a sound that helped them gain respect.

What Syd would develop so fast, the point of wanting to enrich it with drugs (especially LSD) exposing a dark world that could never leave. If anything could help hallucinogens was projecting his ideas in an incredible way of albums such as The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (first album of Pink Floyd Syd and the only one listed as the main songwriter) and discs of Syd as soloist.

Syd collapsed into drugs, but this did not prevent his legacy resist the weather. Pink Floyd Syd never denied that exerted an enormous influence on what they did and each disc is greatly felt the point of being part of the concept of several of his songs and albums. In his solo productions also helped define the psychedelic folk and made it a musical influence for hundreds of musicians worldwide. With respect to Pink Floyd, defined the psychedelic London and made reference these avant garde of the time. He managed to build a style that was growing increasingly clear that a year later define as progressive rock.

Define the lake of this type will not fit in this post, but I wanted to get at is that those who have not had the chance to listen visit Youtube and search on it, they will realize that I am right to hear and admire such form. His music is immense and his legacy will be eternal. At 65 years of his birth are still thousands who keep his legacy intact and growing.

Citing his song Vegetable Man:


It's What I wear, it's What you see, it Must be me, it's what i am, Vegetable man
