RIP Richard Wright
Wright, a founding member of Pink Floyd whose piano and synthesizer work played a critical part in the pioneering rock band's ethereal sound, died after a short battle with cancer. He was 65. Wright was the co-writer of several of the band's signature songs, including "Time,'' "Us and Them,'' and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond.''
The man was an absolute musical genius, and will be missed by people everywhere.
