Pink Floyd – The Piper at the Gates of Dawn with Roger Miller(Mission of Burma.) As a teen in Ann Arbor, Michigan, this week’s guest was already a fan of 13th Floor Elevators’ Roger Kynard "Roky" Erickson when he discovered Pink Floyd’s first and only record helmed by enigmatic singer/guitarist Roger Keith "Syd" Barrett. This album became an enduring lodestone of sorts for our guest, another Roger who DIDN’T change his name and went on to form a band that has become a lodestone for countless bands that followed.
Our guest: Roger Clark Miller of Boston post-punk titans Mission of Burma.
His record: Pink Floyd’s “The Piper at the Gates of Dawn.”
