Pink Floyd's keyboard player Richard Wright has died aged 65 of cancer. I am sure our own SydB will be equally sad.

| It is indeed very sad, he never really got the credit he deserved for the mad keyboards on some of Syds stuff. Interesting to hear Roger Waters comments after he treated Rick Wright so shabbily during the making of the wall. |

Yes he didn't contribute to 'The Final Cut' hardly their high point, sort of the Wall take 2. Momentary Lapse of Reason and Division Bell was Pink Floyd for a new generation, an amazing comeback. Roger who?
