Roddy & Orian discuess how they bonded through the making of the documentary, & why this film was a perfect fit for the both of them to direct & produce, given their expertise in the worlds of rock n roll & film - and the influence that Syd Barrett had on them both. Jay Jay gets into the influence that Pink Floyd and Syd have had on him over the years, & why he considers The Piper at The Gates of Dawn to be his all time favorite psychedelic record.  Syd and Pink Floyd crystallized a cultural moment where anything seemed possible but where that freedom could come with a cost. Was Syd just another drug casualty? Did he suffer from an undiagnosed mental condition? Or did he dislike the attention and fame as the fun turned to work?

Have You Got it Yet? is a chronicle and a mosaic of Barrett’s creative and destructive impulses, his captivating presence and absence - a portrait of the complex puzzle that was his life.    The documentary feature interviews with David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Roger Waters, original band managers Peter Jenner and Andrew King, as well as The Who’s Pete Townshend and Blur’s Graham Coxon - among many others!
