We celebrate Rick Wright's birthday today....he would have been 68.
Wright's keyboard's were an integral part of the classic sound of Pink Floyd, but what was sometimes under appreciated was his skills as a songwriter (as you hear below). There are not many albums (non-Beatles division) that I can regularly go to and listen from beginning to end and still have a fantastic listening experience. The combo of "Dark Side of the Moon" and "Wish You Were Here" still do for me after all of these years.
