Richard Wright RIP - 09-15-2008, 09:30 PM

So sad to hear of the death of Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright, aged 65. He played a major part in creating my joint all-time favourite album. Piper At The Gates of Dawn, which relied heavily on his distinctive playing. He sang on Astronomy Domine and wrote brilliant Floyd tracks such as Remember A Day, Paintbox and - their best track of later years - Wearing The Inside Out from The Division Bell. They tried, but there can't be any Floyd without him.

A very sad day indeed, one of my hero's.
