Car: IS250 RWD Rep Power: 93 | I found out, funnily enough, through my mom... and then even more unusual, we actually proceeded to listen to a few songs together (she isn't even a fan of rock music). I was more saddened by Rick's death than Syd Barrett's... as tragic as Syd's life was, I've never really listened to his Pink Floyd works. But I always loved Rick Wright and thought he was so underrated compared to Gilmour, Waters and even Mason. Damn, what an awesome voice as well.
RIP, and thank you for changing with your bandmates the way I look at music and look at life. | |||
