912. Vegetable Man

In which the Soft Boys take a strong swipe at original Pink Floyd front man Syd Barrett’s last at least half-lucid moment (lucid enough to realize he was losing it, turning lysergically from man to vegetable). “No, it’s not up to the original. How could it be? But this list is limited to stuff I actually own, and no way am I going to pay a hundred plus bucks for a 7-inch single, what with children starving in Texas and all. Also worth noting, Underwater Moonlight, the whole Soft Boys album in question, is well worth the trouble.” (Philip Random)
