Pink Floyd keyboardist Richard Wright has died of cancer at the age of 65 in his home in England. Did you know he and bandmates Roger Waters and Nick Mason went to architecture school? We guess you do now:
The self-taught keyboardist met bassist Roger Waters and drummer Nick Mason in architecture school and in 1964 joined their group Sigma 6, which eventually evolved into the Pink Floyd Sound. With the addition of late singer/guitarist Syd Barrett — who left the band in 1968 and died in 2006 of cancer — the group, now called Pink Floyd, began its rise as one of the most creative and powerful psychedelic bands on the British scene.
And, because duh, enjoy “Wish You Were Here,” after the jump:
