The heart of this successful band was lead singer Syd Barrett. In December 1967, David Gilmour came on board, but Barrett left the band in the following year, as a result of his failing mental health. Following Barrett's departure, Waters took over songwriting and he was the driving force behind successful records such as 'Dark Side of The Moon,' and 'The Wall.'

From the band's beginnings in the sixties, relationships between band members were frequently strained and discord ultimately led to, first, Wright and then Waters to leave the band. Despite conflict, Pink Floyd are hugely popular and they rank amongst the biggest bands in the world.
