Many years ago a friend of mine, remarking on my musical taste, said "you don't like any body unless they're dead or insane". He was referring to my love of nick drake and syd barrett. It wasn't really fair because I liked lot's of bands that weren't dead yet. And I was a nick drake fan and had his records when he was still alive. I'm old.
What's really sad now is that the insane ones are dying off. Syd and Arthur Lee and Skip Spence. Dying of natural causes isn't sexy.
