'WISH YOU WERE HERE' FOLLOWED 'DARK SIDE OF THE MOON', AND WAS ANOTHER 'CONCEPT' ALBUM. THE ALBUM WAS RECORDED AT THE FAMOUS ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS BETWEEN JANUARY & JULY 1975, AND ULTIMATELY WAS RELEASED ON 15TH SEPTEMBER 1975.WITHOUT A DOUBT CONSIDERED TO BE 'CLASSIC' FLOYD, WITH WATERS VITRIOLIC IN HIS QUESTIONING OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY, BUT ALSO PAYING TRIBUTE TO SYD BARRETT, FORMER GUITARIST & SONGWRITER OF THE BAND.

GOD BLESS THE 'CRAZY DIAMOND'.............

"Shine On You Crazy Diamond (I-V)"

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the crossfire of childhood and stardom,
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!
Lyrics by Roger Waters.
