Pink Floyd Shine on you Crazy Diamond (part one) 2021
Pink Floyd Shine on you Crazy Diamond (part one) 2021 Shine On You Crazy Diamond is a ninepart Pink Floyd composition written by David Gilmour, Roger Waters, and Richard Wright. It appeared on Pink Floyd s 1975 concept album Wish You Were Here. The song is written about and dedicated to Syd Barrett, who left the band in 1968 due to deteriorating mental health. One day during recording, Barrett (now heavyset, with a completely shaved head and eyebrows) wandered into the studio (although Mason has since stated that he is not entirely certain whether Shine On You Crazy Diamond was the particular work being recorded when Barrett was there). Because of his drastically changed appearance, the band did not recognize him for some time. When they eventually realised that the withdrawn man in the corner was Barrett, Roger Waters became so distressed about Barrett s appearance that he was reduced to tears. Someone asked to play the suite again for Barr
