How Roger Waters was Brought to TEARS in Final Encounter with Syd Barrett

Syd Barrett was a founding member of Pink Floyd along with Roger Waters, Nick Mason and Rick Wright but, because of his deteriorating mental state, would leave the band in 1968. The 1975 album, Wish You Were Here, was inspired by Syd and the hole he left in the group. This video essay explores how Wish You Were Here was born and also recounts the last ever time Syd would see the band in Abbey Road Studios.
