该乐队周二表示,已经陷入困境的Pink Floyd联合创始人Syd Barrett已经去世了。他才60岁.
乐队发言人称巴雷特几天前去世,但她没有透露死因。 Barrett多年来一直患有糖尿病.
Pink Floyd幸存的成员 – 大卫吉尔莫,尼克梅森,罗杰沃特斯和理查德赖特 – 说他们“对于了解Syd Barrett的死感到非常沮丧和悲伤。”
他们在一份声明中说:“Syd是早期乐队阵容的指路明灯,留下了继续激励的遗产。”.
Barrett于1965年与Waters,Mason和Wright共同创立了Pink Floyd,并撰写了许多乐队的早期歌曲。该乐队充满爵士乐的摇滚和毒品,多媒体“事件”使他们成为伦敦迷幻舞台的宠儿。 1967年的专辑“黎明之门的吹笛者” – 主要由巴雷特写的,他也是吉他手 – 是一部商业和重要的热门歌曲.
但巴雷特患有精神不稳定,因使用LSD而加剧。他的行为变得越来越不稳定,他于1968年离开了乐队 – 在Pink Floyd最受欢迎的专辑“月亮的黑暗面”发行前五年 – 被Gilmour取代.
Barrett发行了两张个人专辑 – “The Madcap Laughs”和“Barrett” – 但很快就退出了音乐界。 1988年发行了一张以前未发行的材料“欧宝”.
他恢复了他的真名Roger Barrett,并且他的余生大部分时间都在他的家乡英格兰剑桥安静地生活。搬进他母亲的郊区房子,他把画时间和花园都花在了一起。他的前乐队成员确保巴雷特继续从他与Pink Floyd的合作中获得版税.
他对邻居来说是一个熟悉的人物,经常看到骑自行车或走到角落商店,但很少跟那些多年来找他出去的粉丝和记者说话.
尽管他的职业生涯短暂,但Barrett脆弱,渴望的歌曲影响了许多音乐家,包括David Bowie–他报道了Barrett音乐剧“See Emily Play”。
鲍伊在他的网站上发表的一份声明中表示,巴雷特是一个“主要灵感来源”。
“他对我思想的影响是巨大的,”鲍伊写道。 “遗憾的是,我从未认识他。确实是钻石。“
Pink Floyd的其他成员录制了专辑“Wish You Were Here”,以纪念他们陷入困境的乐队.
它包含了歌曲“Shine On You Crazy Diamond” – “记得你年轻的时候,你像太阳一样闪耀。”乐队还在专辑“Dark Side of the Moon”和“The Wall”中讲述精神疾病的主题。 ”
乐队发言人表示将举行一场小型私人葬礼.

The band announced on Tuesday that Syd Barrett, the co-founder of Pink Floyd who had fallen on hard times, had passed away. He was only 60 years old. A spokesperson for the band said that Barrett had died a few days ago, but she did not disclose the cause of death. Barrett had been suffering from diabetes for many years. The surviving members of Pink Floyd – David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Roger Waters, and Richard Wright – said they were “very saddened and upset to learn of Syd Barretts death.” In a statement, they said, “Syd was the guiding light of the early band line-up and left an indelible legacy that continues to inspire.” Barrett co-founded Pink Floyd with Waters, Mason, and Wright in 1965 and wrote many of the bands early songs. The band was full of jazz-rock and drugs, and their multimedia “events” made them the darlings of Londons psychedelic scene. The 1967 album “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn” – mainly written by Barrett, who was also the guitarist – was a commercial and critical success. But Barrett suffered from mental instability, which was exacerbated by his use of LSD. His behavior became increasingly erratic, and he left the band in 1968 – five years before Pink Floyds most popular album, “The Dark Side of the Moon,” was released – to be replaced by Gilmour. Barrett released two solo albums – “The Madcap Laughs” and “Barrett” – but soon withdrew from the music industry. In 1988, previously unreleased material was released as “Opel.” He resumed his real name, Roger Barrett, and spent most of his remaining years living quietly in his hometown of Cambridge, England. Moving into his mothers suburban house, he spent time painting and gardening. His former bandmates ensured that Barrett continued to receive royalties from his collaboration with Pink Floyd. He was a familiar figure to his neighbors, often seen riding his bike or walking to the corner shop, but rarely spoke to the fans and journalists who had sought him out over the years. Although his career was brief, Barretts fragile, yearning songs influenced many musicians, including David Bowie – who covered Barretts song “See Emily Play.” Bowie said in a statement on his website that
