Pink Floyd: Shine On, You Crazy Diamond


Composed in 1975, this was the group's tribute to the late Syd Barrett. This YouTube video is from the 1994 London concert -
This is the version from the old VHS tape of Pulse (which IMHO had much better camera angles than the new DVD). The beginning and one verse from the middle (at 6:13) had to be edited out to fit it into YouTube's 10 min. requirement. But the whole movie they showed at the concert is here since it's probably supposed to represent Syd's life (or anybody's)....
I'm so glad the group changed its name from the original "The Tea Set."
