Following in the footsteps of David Gilmour, the Estate of the late Syd Barrett has decided to show support during the current Russia-Ukraine war by removing all Syd Barrett solo material from digital streaming platforms in Russia and Belarus.

A statement issued on March 29th, 2022, reads.

“As with the works of Pink Floyd from 1987 onwards, and David Gilmour’s solo material, all of Syd Barrett’s solo recordings are now being removed from all digital music providers in Russia and Belarus. This is to stand with the world in strongly condemning Russia’s continued attack and invasion of Ukraine.“
