Pink Floyd founder Richard Wright dies

This post is nine days late, but I’d like to tip my hat and a glass of wine back to Richard Wright. Richard Wright, keyboard player and founder of Pink Floyd, died from cancer at 65.

Pink Floyd is one of the all time greatest bands in the history of rock & roll and produced, IMO, the best album in rock history in Dark Side Of The Moon. Wright co-wrote five of the songs on Dark Side Of The Moon, which was in the billboard top 200 for 14 years. Man I’d love to be collecting those royalty checks.

Cheers to you Richard. Many thanks for the enjoyment I’ve gotten from your music over the years.

I'm a professional drummer, sound engineer and golf freak. Some thoughts that leak out of my cranium end up here. Some material here may not be suitable for children or idiots who don't have a sense of humor.
