Pink Floyd really ended with Richard's death. The way he played have created a unique atmosphere of the songs... Thank You Rick..!! ❤🩹 You're still alive in your sings...🙂
A massive contribution BUT ONE of FIVE essential components Without any one (yeah, even Sid) it wouldn't have been Floyd. This is a clever and sensitive tribute - Deserves acknowledgement too
RIP Rick ,you are still my #1 fave keyboardist in all of rock even over the brilliant Eddie Jobson. You always came across as a kind, humble man, we miss you mate!
I remember seeing Floyd at Newcastle City Hall UK around 74 when I was 16,and managed too get back stage after the gig.Met Nick Mason and Rick Wright.Rick in particular was just a really nice guy.happy to sign an autograph and took the time to chat.I think he never got the true recognition for his musical input in Floyd..🙏RIP
@@DaveCornutt I think Rick was a hidden genius. Without knowing it, in 1969 he had invented the synthesizer by combining the vibrato of the Farfisa with the echorec, so he could modify the attack and decay of the notes. Too underestimated
you are correct. Rick Wright is one og the most Under rated Keyboardists in all of rock and roll. Sort of like Bassists.. everyone says "FLEA... Geddy Lee"...etc. etc. While Flea has said that Geddy was a huge influece on him as hea learned... Everyone time and time again overlooks a bassist/vocalist/songwriter that has made massive contributions to the art form we call rock and roll.. and that would be Chris Squire from YES "On the Silent Wings of Freedom" from the album > Tormato < has been one of my all time favorites since I was 10.... Far and away though... favorite Band? Pink Floyd all the way. There was something about the way they composed a song.. that special sauce I don't know but it effects people physically... In fact when Roger Waters Performed The Gunners Dream from the Pink Floyd album The Final Cut I personaly was an eye witness... by the time we were a minute into the song.. maybe 90 seconds.. the 4 rows in front of me and for a good 50 feet each direction were crying like they were at a funeralwe are talking almost 100 people just so emotionally touched they wept aloud... When you can make people sing along, you know you've got a hit... But when you can emotionally wipeout whole swathes of a crowd and reduce them to sobbing wrecks, that takes some secret sauce... THat's a talent very rare. Pink Floyd Had it .. Rick Wright definately had it and he should , by all of us, be celebrated for it. To all a blessed day.. thanks for your patience
@@marceloferreira2628 It's just the way it was. Wright was the soul of Pink Floyd Waters was the brains of Pink Floyd Gilmour was the heart of Pink Floyd and Mason was the drummer of Pink Floyd
@@marceloferreira2628 Because every soundtrack was based on Richard Wright. When he left on The Wall, Pink Floyd's sound changed for the worse, it became basic rock.
Richard Wright made David Gilmour sound very good as Rick didn't ever take the spotlight. I remember briefly seeing David Gilmour receive an award and spoke of Rick (how he was missed ) whilst the audience didn't even respond. David walked off the stage.
Ronald, I love what you said and I saw that award thing too. You just made me realise that David walked off, just thought it was an hurried moment when I saw it but I now think it was more than that. If so, well done David. Also agree that Rick was a foundation that others could launch from.
Wright was horribly underrated by Waters. He may not have been a Rick Wakeman, but as far as establishing a distinctly unique sound that worked perfectly with the Floyd's style of music, he remains unparalleled. Waters never understood that it was the combination of the four members that generated the Floyd's success. ... Their success can never be attributed to any single member.
@@0-by-1_Publishing_LLC Not that I know much of the life of band members ( in relation to Richard Wright from Roger Water's perspective) I would say I agree with you. From my understanding on the Wall it seems Roger Waters wanted everything to go the way he wanted opposed to letting other band members give their own signature. And so after the Wall the band dis banded. Whatever was going on behind the scenes just the facts (basic facts) Roger Waters sacked Richard Wright.David Gilmour reinstated Richard Wright. They then kept the band name Pink Floyd after some court cases. This I don't really get into. Then again I was interested enough to absorb these from what music people have spoken about.
@@ron1martens *"Roger Waters wanted everything to go the way he wanted opposed to letting other band members give their own signature. And so after the Wall the band dis banded. "* ... That's it in a nutshell. And everything that followed from Roger Waters' solo works and from the 3-person version of the Floyd never approached the quality of the full band where they were providing equal input. ... DSotM and "Echoes" are perfect examples.
@@0-by-1_Publishing_LLC Absolutely @o. There are some wonderful piano arrangements of Echoes. Echoes is actually a masterpiece. The introductions notes created by Richard Wright. Thankyou for spending your time replying to my comment. I appreciate it.
thank you so much, very nice - its like "saucerful of secrets" - for me Pink floyd exists up to and including Animals. From The Wall I no longer recognize the style. You were a genius Rick thx
Agreed. Except the Division Bell sees a lot of Rick, and I think is one of the underrated albums from the band. (And before anyone says "Polly wrote all the lyrics," that's not true. She and David collaborated on most, with one lyric all Dave's and another longtime contributor Anthony Moore.)
interesting what you say. I'll have a quiet listen to the vinyl record when the opportunity arises. Lyrics are not my thing. I often wonder why short songs are being made all the time. And no more long stretches like before. I also think that there is more soul in that early music, there were hardly any computers involved. So there is more talent on the part of the artist. Also the occupancy was not that great.
Thank you. Everything you write is true. The essence of PF is all in live performances from 1969 to 1975 (where animals songs are included)... then, modern keyboards arrived and the Binson Echorec sound disappeared
I urge you to check out David Gilmour at Gdańsk - Rick and David revisiting the back catalogue for the last time before Rick passed. The Echoes is phenomenal and the last time David would play it. Really demonstrates how those two were the heart and soul of the band. Waters can write lyrics for sure but for me has not been that interesting since he left PF.
Thank you for this beautiful piece I love Richard and I love what he did and Pink Floyd in the early days especially love songs called seesaw and the other song that he had it was a composition I can’t spell it it starts with an ass you know what I’m talking about

As a big PF and Genesis fan, i used to think " who's the best keyboardist ? Rick Wright or Tony Banks?" Silly comparison really but came to the same conclusion as my Gilmour - Hackett dilemna, Banks is perhaps technically better but Rick and Dave both have more soul. Also both are pretty decent singers too. Still love the Genesis pair though. Rick will never age now, hes a huge loss both to PF and the world, RIP dude
I think Rick was a hidden genius. Without knowing it, in 1969 he had invented the synthesizer by combining the vibrato of the Farfisa with the echorec, so he could modify the attack and decay of the notes. Too underestimated
Richard Wright did not play a leading role in Pink Floyd, but we all lucked out that Richard played a necessary role with better fit and synergy into Pink Floyd that any other keyboardist would have. As a lover of their vinyl double-album Umma Gumma, I admit I remain irritated that Wright had not even one listenable musical sequence in his 25% of that album (same goes for Nick Mason's 25%, but then I do not expect any music from a drummer).

'Oh, bye the way, which one's Pink' ? Rick without a doubt, the heart and soul of the band. His legacy will live forever like all great musicians.

Nick Mason says in his book that not only the fans, but also the band itself, did not sufficiently recognize or appreciate Richard's importance.

He has my recognition.
RIP Rick Wright Your timeless legacy remains
My Hero. My favourite keyboardist.
Never saw the 4 piece Floyd but saw them first at JFK stadium in Philly and Rick opened the concert with echoes in a light rain. Unreal.
He was the soul of Pink Floyd.
Why

Richard « the great » Wright as I like him. Thankx so much for sharing this beautiful music.
No me queda ninguna duda que Rick es el mas ilustrado, musicalmente hablando, de todo el grupo.
Thanks R. W.
Richard was a great Keyboards Player
RiP maestro 😢
RIP Master🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀
I always loved the Mortality sequence.
Been loving this band and since I was 13. Born 1960 F... You R.Waters
un grande che manca tanto nel panorama musicale anche lui e la storia dei pink floyd rip 🙏🙏🙏
Da amante dell'organo, dico che è bellissimo, ti fa tornare indietro ai Pink Floyd di fine anni sessanta.
Ti ringrazio di cuore. Buona giornata
we will see us in the second avaicaning
Gracias por todo lo que han hecho por nosostros,la música que ha acompañado todos los momentos de mi deambular por este plano.
Well said amigo.☮️
Thanks for this pleasant collage...it works well. It evokes Richard's spirit in avery tender fashion.
Você foi e sempre será o melhor de todos...
It's better to burn out than to fade away.

@@grahamhowes6904 I completely agree. The gilmour/wright symbiosis was central to the creation of PF's first sound

So beautiful!!!
Really miss that magic
He will remain like Mozart for a silent piano pause
Reconheço partes aí que ele usou posteriormente na magnífica The great gig in The sky!!!
Definite echoes of 'Celestial Voices' - Part IV of 'A Saucerful of Secrets' from the album of the same name!

Great Gig in the Sky demo, isn’t it?
not, i'm sorry. It's performed by me and - as in description - reproduces the Brighton (June 1972) bootleg version
If PINK FLOYD Was To Reform...Ud Be Quite Fitting...
Rick Wright is to Pink Floyd as what John Paul Jones was to Led Zep...
I think was more. The whole Pink Floyd mood comes from Richard. He was the soul of the band, not Gilmour.
Actually IMO it ends with David Gilmour's passing.
