Even though Syd didn’t physically die until much later, the band wrote numerous tributes and odes mourning his loss to mental illness while he was alive. A terribly tragic situation for all of them. Syd was the main creative inspiration and force on those early Floyd records before his dramatic decline and exit from the band. But my god, their collective pain and grieving gave the world some incredible music. So real and emotional. It all still hits hard.

This album is a love letter to honor Syd Barrett who descended into drug use and madness. Each song takes you from the early days of the band on to the end. The album does Shine parts 1-5 but theres no delineation of the parts, then it goes into Welcome to the Machine, then to Have a Cigar, then Wish You Were Here, and closes out with Shine parts 6-10. It’s a work of art and each part tells the story. That’s what makes bands like Pink Floyd and The Moody Blues stand out head and shoulders above everyone else. It’s known as a concept album. Most artists will release an album with 12 random songs that have zero connection to each other.

There is a famous picture of a very different Sid, shaved and head blank stare who just showed up in the recording studio while the were recording this very song, and it took a while for Gilmore and Waters to see that it was Sid.

First of, "Momentary Lapse of Reason" was Pink Floyd's 13th studio album released in 1987. Syd Barrett was the original singer and songwriter of Pink Floyd (along with Roger Waters), and he was only on the band's first album "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn" released in 1967 and portions of their second album "A Saucerful Of Secrets" (1968). Syd was heavily into drugs (especially H) and this unfortunately caused him to have mental illnesses. After a show where Syd just stood on stage like a statue and did nothing at all for an hour because he was too stoned, the band had no choice but to replace him. He was replaced by his close friend David Gilmour. Interestingly, after leaving Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett was able to release two solo albums (with the aid of his former Pink Floyd members). After that Roger and the gang lost contact with Syd for several years. While they were recording the song "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" (which has 9 parts, not 5) Syd surprised them by showing up unannounced at the studio. This was really awkward considering the song that they were recording was all about him. They almost did not recognize Syd. The drugs had taken their cruel toll, and he was very frail and thin.
@paulqueripel3493

I thought he was the opposite of thin when he visited them. "Waters asked the audience if they knew him because he was not sure who that man was and what he was looking for, and then Wright realized it was Syd Barrett, with excess pounds, shaved heads and eyebrows. Totally unrecognizable, he looked like a middle-aged man, although he was only 29 years old." Taken from Wired.

The song was written in segments, and different people or combinations of people wrote each segment. Then, they worked out how to fit the segments together. Syd was the main songwriter of the first album (Piper at the Gates of Dawn -1967) and only wrote one song on Saucerful of Secrets (1968). Roger only wrote one song on Piper and wrote or co-wrote most of the rest of their songs until he left in 1985 after The Fibal Cut (1983). You called A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987) one of their early albums. It was the first without Roger. Pink Floyd had few line-up changes, once they were signed. When Syd's drug use and possibke mental illness. Roger abd David thought Syd has schizophrenia, but Syd's family denies and mental illness beyond being "on the siectrum" of Asbergers. The band invluded several tributes to him after he was fired. The other line up changes were Roger demanding Richard Wright be fired after The Wall or Roger would record The Fibal Cut as a solo album. Richard demand to produce The Wall, but his production work, took too lkng and was unusable. He hadn't gotten a writing credit since the Wish You Were Here album. He returned as a guest on Momentary Lapse, but was a full member for The Division Bell (1994). The Endless River (2014) is essentially a tribute to Ricard Wright who died in 2008. About 3/4 of the album was unused recurdings from the Division Bell sessions by Richard Wright David and several producers worked these into new dings. David wrote a few new pieces fir the slbum. Only one song actually has any lyrics. David's wife Polly wrote the lrics, and almost all Pink Floyd lyrics on The Division Bell as well. Side note: one of the band nanes used befire Pink Floyd was The Meggadeaths. I wonder when Dave Mustsine learned about that.

I think the ' parts ' are the music breaks in between the whole song You can also hear the time signature is either ¾ or ⁶/8 beats - bluesy, kinda jazzy, mello, - oh & don't forget the keyboard solo intro, - then back to the guitar, & then he FINALLY starts singing ... " Remember when You were Young, ( laughing, chuckle), You shone like the Sun ... " SHINE, ON YOU CRAZY, DIAMOND! (* Sax solo ... 🎷 & time change, another ' part ') " DEUCES! " ✌🏻😸✌🏻

There are interviews with Waters Gilmour Wright and Mason all on here and they all have a slightly different take on Syd. Gilmour said that one day in 68 or 69 they were due to pick up Syd to go to a gig but they all decided not to. So he never officially left or was kicked out of the group. They just froze him out but made sure he would get his share of the royalties. If you read between the lines there was a lot of guilt over the way they treated him. Wright shared a flat with Syd for a while and he would leave to go and play with the group but tell Syd he was going out to get something like cigarettes. When he'd get back it would be obvious that Syd had no clue about how much time had passed.

Un album parfait du début à la fin. Le meilleur groupe de tout les temps. Shine on you crazy diamond est un morceau fantastique.

This song from this album was peak, Pink Floyd personal intensely emotional. That’s the one my friend who acted like a DJ when I come over to his house and he put on various tunes. This album was one of his heavy rotations and I have to agree. It breaks my heart that they saw their good buddy go insane and there’s nothing they could do.

Have A Cigar, the lines that lead to "By the way which one's Pink," were spoken by an American music exec who on meeting the band didn't have a clue who they were.

That photo of Syd showing up in the studio is wild. You guys need to watch Welcome to the Machine. There has never been a song like it before of after. What an absolute masterpiece it is.

I like when the beat picks up and it switches from bari to tenor sax.

Sorrow from Pulse tour is very good and Comfortably Numb from Pulse tour. On The Turning Away live 1988 also very good . Great Reaction you get into Floyd like me and I love it!

You guys should watch the documentary The Making of Wish You Were Here (AFTER Smokey has listened to the full album, of course). It's on KZbin, or at least used to be. It's an amazing dive into how this album came together.

The line in Have A Cigar you referenced, "the band is just fantastic, that is really what we think, by the way, which one's Pink?" was not the band making fun of themselves - they were making fun of the record/music company staff when they either wanted to sign them, or just after they'd signed them (can't remember which)

I read somewhere that the album label said the song was too long so they split it into two songs. Love this band!

Brothers, you should definitely try “Interstellar Overdrive”. People may not like it as much, but it’s a work of art!

Hardest thing for any band is to follow up a great album. Dark Side of the Moon was groundbreaking. Pink Floyd followed that up with another absolutely brilliant album with Wish You Were Here. Stands up beautifully even almost fifty years later. This song is the centerpiece but everything else stands up just as well.
