Syd Barrett, the troubled genius who co-founded Pink Floyd but spent his last years in reclusive anonymity, has died, a spokeswoman for the band said Tuesday. He was 60.
The spokeswoman - who declined to give her name until the band made an official announcement - confirmed media reports that he had died. She said Barrett died several days ago. She did not disclose the cause of death.

Oh dear, what a shame. Pink Floyd are my favourite band, and it is sad to hear this news.
Shine on you Crazy Diamond is a song written about Syd and it is quite possibly one of the best songs that Pink Floyd have ever written.
RIP
Paul

Soul legend dies
He was 58
Milan B Williams, one of the founding members of The Commodores, has died following a battle with cancer.
The 58 year-old passed away on Sunday (July 9) in Texas.

Keyboardist Williams played on such hits as 'Easy' and 1978 UK Number One 'Three Times A Lady'.
Band member Walter Orange said: "He was once, twice, three times a brother and we love him."
Williams quit the band in 1989.
