Shine On You Crazy Diamond!! for you will truly be missed. This was also a tribute to Sid Barrett which Wright wrote.

Respect and sorrow for the loss of a great talent, One that has made the group legends in their lifetimes and will be long after we are all gone.
RIP

Perhaps the most fitting tribute - Pink Floyd - The Great Gig in the Sky (1988)

It would seem that Wright may have written his own epitaph some 30 years ago, cuz now he is playing The Great Gig in the Sky

Not to brag but I saw, Dark side of the Moon at the Auditorium in Chcago.....

Wish you were Here at the Milwaukee state fair..( where I MAY have over medicated a tad)

And Animals at Soldier Field.............

I guess I am bragging...:)

I would brag, but I never had the opportunity to see them. I saw "The Wall" in theaters several times, but I didn't over medicate.

I'd say the dosages were just about right...

The parents are out of the house. You pull out your copy – vinyl copy – of Dark Side of the Moon. You catch a nice toasty buzz and put on the head phones. Those were the days. Thanks for those great moments, Richard Wright. R.I.P.

There were helicopters in "The Wall" album that, the first time I heard them (while wearing headphones with a little sum'thin sum'thin in my system) I thought the house was under attack. A cop, a friend of the family just happened to be shining his spotlight on the picture window just then and in stereo those helicopters sounded just like they were circling you.

I am so sorry to hear about this.   I appreciate the clip very much.  I enjoyed watching it.  I always said that group was twenty years ahead of their time.   They are musical experts.

        Is there any chance he's just spending a year dead for tax purposes?

      My all-time favorite band.
