Two English gentlemen having a most civilized chat. What a most pleasant listening/viewing experience. I fear this is almost a lost art these days. Thank you John. These are true treasures and I hope that you are storing them within a well-regulated university archival storage and oversight arrangement. These are, and will be, excellent primary sources for future writers, researchers, and scholars. You must be deservedly proud of your work here. Chapeau bas!

Great interview. Thanks John ❤

Excellent , Thanks John

Always spoiling us John! Take care ❤

Another excellent interview, another trip into the great Floydian mystery, and another priceless document generously put here on KZfaq. 💯 Thanks, John! 🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Thank you John for these uploads! Hearing these men talk so candidly is an immense privilege

Definitely need this improved sound mixing for the Richard Wright interview

I love to hear stories about Syd. Thanks John.

Thanks a lot, John. Nick is always a great interview, and I love how he has been keeping the early Floyd music alive (my favorite period) in recent years in his "Saucerful of Secrets" band. Nick, if you see this, we need to see you perform in Florida!!!!

Syd was so great, it was his band even when he wasn't in it.

This series of interviews with the key Floyd protagonists is thoroughly enjoyable and reflects well on your talents as an interviewer. Thanks John.

Amazing John, thank you mate 👍

Bike is a very beautiful song. There's nothing else like it. It's on my favorites list. But Syd composed mostly very abstract compositions that were convoluted. Most people lose interest in compositions that are impossible to relate to... or simply thrown together too fast or effortlessly. Cancer patients who opt for chemotherapy lose their hair... including their eyebrows. Only the strongest have enough willpower to keep it in remission for decades... as other precursor symptoms of a different disease, such as one of many autoimmune diseases a person could be orn with, is a harbinger of something much worse that's on its way. Syd chose to live with his mother because he was cool like that. The chemistry of Pink Floyd is magical. Nobody intended to hurt anyone's feelings... that is evident. Not everyone chooses their own fate, but everyone chooses their own path and Syd Chose to live his remaining years with his mother and sister. Had he chosen to continue a lifestyle of debauchery in smokey bar-rooms instead, I wouldn't be able to compliment him. Obviously, the Pink Floyd band felt enough affection for their friend to attribute a body of work to him as his childhood concepts influenced others to experiment in the studio... and that's how the magic happened.

Nick Mason sounds troubled when Syd comes up, as if guilt is still weighing on his mind. And that body language reveals a lot. Would it have helped Nick's memory if you had played Vegetable Man and Scream Thy Last Scream for him during the interview? Well, done what's done, an excellently subtle interview once again. Big thanks, John !

What a fantastic video have a wonderful day John also Thursday is my dad birthday ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊

Good interview and his honesty is refreshing he shouldn't be hard on himself for the way the American tour and Syd's illness went they were all young how could they know how to deal with that stuff, really difficult for anyone never mind people in their 20s.

Wonderful interview, I love the way you guide the conversation with such thoughtfulness and consideration, the dialog feels so genuine and chill, it would be cool to see you at some point during the interview for context if that video exists, audio sounded great, looking forward to more content! :)

These are great interviews. I would recommend adjusting the titles to include the fact that these are focused on Syd Barrett. I think that will help with the Feed recommendation and also help dummies like me that watch the whole thing and then realize it was only going to cover Syd.

I hope the guys in the band read to comment number 19 cos that's me!

what do you mean by “improved sound”? i understand the image is in the correct aspect ratio now but what is the difference with the sound?

Interesting how the architect comes out with references to songs "design".

There’s a story after Syd. He was only on the first two records and an integral member at that time. I want to know more about the band without him.

Nick appears very uncomfortable in this interview. Must be sick to the back teeth of raking over this ground again and again.

Could this interviewer be any more disjointed with his speech? Ask a question, and stop dawdling. It's very hard to listen to.

Apparently, these people (bandmates and managers) didn't really communicate or communicate well with each other. They certainly didn't speak up when Roger took it upon himself to fire Rick Wright. Rick was their bandmate and friend, and they were fine with Roger making himself the one and only decision maker. I can't imagine not speaking up about my band mate being fired by someone not officially in charge. They were cowards. I have listened to all the interviews by the bandmates, managers, and others. Syd did not like the direction the band was heading and was vocal about it. Yet, it seems that none of these people asked Syd what he would like to see happen. If they did, not one of them have spoken of it. The interviewer can't seem to get the questions out of his mouth and Nick can't seem to remember much of anything. Useless interview.

Roger.. well he is and was a.. bass player who thought he'll run the 🌎
