BARRETT IS AN ICONIC FIGURE IN WORLD OF POP CULTURE. BRILLIANT SONG WRITER, GUITARIST, AND VOCALIST. CO-FOUNDER OF THE SEMINAL PINK FLOYD. HE WAS THE FRONTMAN ON FLOYD'S FIRST 2 LP'S, ARGUABLY THEIR BEST WORK. TOO MANY ACID TRIPS DERAILED HIM FROM PINK FLOYD AND HE DISAPPEARED FROM SCENE AFTER HIS SECOND SOLO ALBUM. IN THE 80'S HE WAS OFFERED HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY TO COME OUT OF RECLUSION TO RECORD JUST ONE RECORD. THAT DIDN'T MATERIALIZE. FLOYD'S MASTERFUL TRACK "WISH YOU WERE HERE"  IS A HAUNTING TRIBUTE TO BARRETT.

MADCAP LAUGHS WAS PRODUCED BY DAVID GILMOUR AND ROGER WATERS.  ECCENTRIC AND NON-COMMERCIAL, THE ALBUM IS A ACID CHARRED 20TH CENTURY MASTERPIECE.
