Pink Floyd: Arnold Layne (1967)

May 27, 2007

Here is Pink Floyd’s first single which was written by original band member Syd Barrett. The song is based on a real person who was a transvestite. (Read Wikipedia’s description of the story.) This is a rather bizarre video I had not seen where the band carries a mannequin around a beach. Hmm, what does it all mean?
