The man who wrote "The Great Gig In The Sky".
Hope it's a good one.

click the wee right pointing triangle at the top left and you will hear his piece for the fight sequence that never made it into the movie Zabriskie Point, I think we all recognise what it became

Stunning, very fitting to play on such moments too...
A sad loss...

Gutted. Rick was always a favourite with me. The gentle quite man with stunning musical ability
I know he had some eye surgery a few years ago, but never expected this.
Planet Rock broadcast an interview recorded last year with Rick being interviewed by Guy Pratt (son in law) about Piper.

sad news. I liked him and his early 70s Bee Gees haircut.

Speechless really.
I didn't even know he was ill.

Real shame. He was fantastic on Gilmour's last tour. Even did The Great Gig In the Sky with Sam Brown in Paris.
