Oh, Inverted Gates Of Dawn

It's fun when all these years of listening starts circling back on itself. In high school, I was a big Pink Floyd fan - digging their seventies platinum albums with that Hipgnosis artwork. I didn't delve into early Floyd, furthest back I went was Ummagumma. Yesterday morning I heard a Syd Barrett tune on Radio K. I know Barrett as the original leader of Pink Floyd but hadn't paid attention to any of his songs before. This morning while at an accounting client's, he played Pink Floyd's first album with most of the tunes written by Barrett.

So tonight I listen to recent rotation-fave the Shins and say: "Holy Floyd, Batman!"
