think you would be in a very small minority RD.  The only reason I know Sisyphus(besides Pink Floyd) is I studied literature for a couple too many years...

How many people know the "it's a beautiful day" reference in your new avatar picture, Larry? ::)

If one was a hippy-dippy follower back in the day maybe a handful-very few people in my age group(old) have heard of them, younger generation probably none.  Shame because they were a very innovative group with a sound unlike any previous rock band.  I saw them live at the New Orleans Pop Festival in Gonzalez, LA in 1969 and rushed out to buy the LP in the avatar, sold it for some reason that I'll never understand and just managed to purchase another copy(actually bought two copies, both play flawlessly ;D).  I have three complete vintage stereo systems, one in living room, one in pool table room and another in my shop and usually play vinyl when working in the shop-that album is one of my all-time faves, probably number 1 ;)...Larry

MoMo: about 17 or so years ago, I special order that same album. I used to listen to white bird, hot summer day, girl with something something no face and eyes on the wall something something.
 Back when I first had it I was in high school 1973, I used to listen while I was reading the electric Kool-Aid acid test, when i was a Timothy Leary groupie

I'm a bit older but I sure can identify with what was going on in your life, fortunately I was able to stop all that crap. "There's a girl in my room, there's a face on the wall with no eyes.  Girl with no eyes, who can she be, beautiful girl she's looking at me are some of the lyrics you were looking for".  ...Larry
