Richard Wright has died
Greatest band ever to millions.
Lets take time to discuss Pink Floyds timeless music which fits no genre other then Godliness. Perhaps there is some recordings to be released still. |
R.I.P. Richard Wright
Richard William Wright, a self-taught pianist and keyboardist best known for his long career with the legendary Pink Floyd died today following a battle with cancer. Though not as prolific a songwriter as his bandmates Syd Barrett, Roger Waters and David Gilmour, he did write significant parts of the music for classic albums such as Meddle, Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here, as well as for Pink Floyd's final studio album The Division Bell.
BBC NEWS | Entertainment | Floyd founder Wright dies at 65 R.I.P. Richard, I think I'm going to have a Pink Floyd marathon tonight. |
Merged with ADELE's as his was first.
R.I.P Richard Wright |
That really sucks. I always thought he was really talented and probably the most underrated member of the band. :(
|
From what I have been hearing he was underated as the band member.
When you consider that floyd was based so much on melody and instrumentals I think his contribution to the band should be explored more. Sensitive made the point well. |
Oh my God. I had no idea. His sound made Meddle and DSOTM the albums that they are.
R.I.P. Richard Wright I think I need an honorary marathon of Floyd. |
Truly sad.
One of my favorite keyboards, and in my opinion the most underrated Floyd member. He wrote some of their most memorable songs (like Great Gig in the Sky) and he had a great voice, will truly be missed. I was so hoping they would have a reunion someday too, dispite how unlikely it was. Lame. :( |
Fuck. Devastated.
His last contribution to Pink Floyd: |
I'm heartbroken...
I really loved him and his music... I'm going to have "Echoes" on repeat tonight |
He was a significant part of an immortal band. R.I.P.
|
Very underrated. I felt he deserved so much more. RIP
|
Awwww damn, he's off to the great gig in the sky now. :(
|
Dam...RIP, he definitly had a good life, even though Waters was a **** to him (Waters was a **** to everyone though). What cancer was it? It didn't say in the article.
|
Jesus Christ. That made me tear up. Everything's ****ing dying. :(

It was a very short battle though. |
this is very unfortunate to hear. it hasnt been long since i started listening to the floyd. but ever since i bought the wall and dark side they have been on constant rotation.
|
Dang, sounds like it was a stomach cancer or something.
|
R.I.P. Richard Wright. Most definitely underrated.
|
RIP.
A great musician. |
I did have a little tear in my eye when I heard the news but fuck it. Floyd mean a great deal to me personally.
|
I think pink floyd have the ability to touch a timeless part of us that we all carry.
The higher part of our consciences. This is a sad day indeed. |
Listening to 'Dogs' for the awesome keyboard solo now.
|
The thing I probably liked most about Rick, apart from his playing, was his humility in that band. When everyone, including the leading personalities in the band, were fighting over who was better than whom, Rick was comfortable being in the background, just doing his job.
Best wishes to his family... |
This was pretty shocking to hear...I didn't even know he was sick.
