Your username is a Barrett era Floyd song and you say he is not as influential? McCartney himself called him a genius. He also influenced Bowie, Bolan, Townsend, Hendrix (who caught them live at the UFO club). His music has been covered by : REM, the Flaming Lips, Placebo and Smashing Pumpkins. So I certainly think it is not ludicrous to suggest that Barrett is as influential as the late Beatles work and his work echoes through so much British guitar based music.
