Pink Floyd: The Story of Wish You Were Here: Directed by John Edginton. With Syd Barrett, Joe Boyd, Venetta Fields, Jill Furmanovsky. Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Richard Wright and others tell the story of the creative process of the album “Wish You Were Here

“I idolized these musicians as a teenager, and decades later itu0026#39;s nice to see that these guys are indeed bright and sensitive people. We get a good feel for what they went through when Syd Barrett became mentally ill and what happened when he visited Abbey Road Studios 7 years later. The film also gives us insight into how they struggled to link the songs thematically; we learn how a few rifts from Gilmouru0026#39;s imagination inspired the others to finish composing the tracks; and we even get an interpretation of Wish You Were Hereu0026#39;s lyrics. Every interview feels unscripted. When the sound manager walks into the studio, I think he really is walking in there for the fist time in a while.”
