In June 2001, the Pink Floyd legend Roger Waters was interviewed at Abbey Road studios by documentary filmmaker John Edginton. The focus of the interview is Pink Floyd's brilliant co-founder Syd Barrett. Barrett was still alive in 2001. He died in 2006. The interview is largely unedited here.

When Roger left, Floyd was never the same.
That is one of the coolest interviews with Roger ever, such calm and reasoned questions put Rog at ease through some difficult waters and allowed him to express himself freely, fantastic work John and looks like it was fun.
From time to time I get angry about him for his ego problems that leaded to his departure from the band and some feuds with Gilmour in these last years...but absolutely everyone has to admit that this dude is sharp and his intellect is some steps beyond the rest. The four concerts I've attended of him were utterly unforgettable nights and lifetime experiences.
I love Roger. It strikes me in the interview how much Sid's downfall injured Roger. For all of us, some of life's tragedies never fully heal.
I wonder whether the way in which Waters is often perceived (spikey, combative and prickly are the more polite adjectives I've heard and read) ever bothers him. Of course, many would refute this and perhaps reframe it as being 'driven' of 'focussed'. Then again, does any of it even reach his ears or attention? My dental floss-thin connection with him was when I got a week's work clearing out was (I think) his or the Floyd's PR office many moons ago. There were sack of unopened letters that were being thrown out. So, being the nosey so-and-so that I am, I opened a few dozen during my lunch break. Some of them were heart breaking pleas (for his attention, not his cash) from people in very poor parts of the world, who said his & the Floyd's music made their lives bearable. Perhaps the postage cost them half a day's salary, yet here were their letters: headed for the trash without even being opened, let alone reaching Mr Waters. Wish you were here, indeed.
"im desperately trying to learn this riff and it keeps changing" hahahahah
I can't get past the feeling of the pain of losing an intensely beautiful and talented mate like Syd. Roger is so respectful and open and descriptive.
So glad he is writing his memoirs. The wealth of stories he must have could be astounding.
Never saw this before. So good to see Roger at ease and speaking as honestly as ever. Great work. He's a treasure to humanity
For those who still don't get 'The Final Cut,' I think it's Roger's most ambitious project in Pink Floyd. The scope is Roger analyzing the British post war dream, quite a heady subject. I find a it a very fitting and proper subject for an artist to tackle and I am in awe of this work to this day.
Lol, why does Roger Waters look like the illegitimate love child of Richard Gere and Steve Irwin: The Crocodile Hunter. LOL!!!
So the actual prog musicians didn’t read literature or poetry yet the proto punks like mc5 and Iggy Pop did
Well after watching all the guys do these interviews Roger Waters strikes me as more expressive, and deep thinking a little more.
Really enjoyed this interview, this is Roger at his best. He's relaxed, intelligent, confident, no signs of stress.
Love that dude - he's so wonderful and sensitive person.
Does Roger have a website
Roger we love you
❤❤❤
