I looooooooove Syd. I did a rework of Terrapin on my last album, just as a full band, stoner/psych song.

Give it a suss if you like. I've always loved the dude & his tunes, this was my own way of paying a tribute I guess.

Side note, when I was younger I used to do covers of his songs often at open mics. You could always spot the Syd fans in the crowd instantly.

How would you describe a syd fan? seats in corner and observes everyone looking a bit out of it? :)

I should have said that differently haha. I meant more-so when you start playing a disjointed acoustic song like Dark Globe, Terrapin or Dominoes, people at an open mic will either give you a look of sympathy/disgust or their faces will light up with joy. The ones who light up with joy are obv the ones who know who Syd Barrett is. The others just think your not very good hahah.
