Trent is great.

I’m splashing for an artist:

I don’t know what was wrong with him but he had something really dark going on in his head.

Yeah, Trent’s a master in terms of production, but sometimes his early work dove a bit to far into “the abyss”. If I could choose three artists who as a combination had a make up similar to me, I’d choose Nick Drake, Jeff Buckley and Elliott Smith.

Bach 25 baloooooooooons

Syd Barrett, Bud Powell, Brian Wilson, Van Gogh, Albert Ayler, Tim Buckley, Jack Kerouac and Lou Reed.

If I were to pick a top favorite, maybe Syd Barrett. I listen to his music most often. I think he was schizophrenic. A psychadellic rock and folk rock artist. He was a big inspiration to Pink Floyd because he was their leader on the first album.

He could only make three albums because he was hit very hard with the disorder. He got some functional issues, but pushed through them to make his second and third albums, which were great, emotional albums.
