A bit longer. Says the poster:

"Pretty interesting. Very Rare. If you're an early Floyd fan, you'll like this. Syd and the gang playing "Interstellar Overdrive" for like almost 20 mins~ dude... but it's cool, Syd's a bad ass. Then they jam somemore all early Pink Floyd style and in the midst of it all you catch clips of John Lennon at a club before he ever met Yoko, where aparently Yoko Ono was doing some artsy-fartsy stuff. Pretty cool. Beware people... lots of hippie nudity. Enjoy Floyd and Lennon fans alike."

I wonder if Bricks in the Wall will do anything special at their next gig?

R.I.P. 'syd' barrett. lest we forget the southern bluesmen whose names he combined to create a legend. somebody play 'bike'. that song is the epitome of barrett's style and grace.

indeed, strident. I used to live in the same town back in North Carolina that Floyd Council did. I won't mention the name of that town because I married a Duke grad, but it rhymes with "grapple thrill."
