    From 1965 to 1980 Montana led the charge to ensure folks had access to clean air and clean water. We acknowledged that every child should receive a quality education, and promoted the rights of working class families. The series “In the Crucible of Change” documents this unique and influential period of our state’s history, allowing future generations of Montanans to fully appreciate the leadership of that era. Thank you to Evan Barrett and everyone for their hard work in making this film series available for all to experience.

    A Critical Review Syd Barrett: A Very Irregular Head

    No full text
    This Literature Review contextualises the work I undertook for „Syd Barrett: A Very Irregular Head,‟ (1) a 140,000 word biography based on the life of the musician Syd Barrett, lead guitarist, vocalist, and principal songwriter in the original line up of Pink Floyd. The book is based on two and a half years of focussed research, carried out between January 1997 and August 2009. During this time I interviewed family, friends, schoolmates, fellow college students, musicians, artists, and admirers from every stage of Barrett‟s life, from his earliest days growing up in Cambridge, through his period as an active musician and pop star, to his final years as a reclusive and enigmatic figure in his home town. However, these 65 interviews comprise only one element of my research. In addition I utilised an extensive range of primary and secondary source material, and the bibliography for the book runs to some 49 texts. (See appendix.) I also drew upon significant audio and video material including rare and hard to find television transmissions, and archive and bootleg recordings, many of which are not in the public domain
