JeffLearman Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Gilmour=musician Waters=writer Wright=decorator (and latent writer) Gilmour without a doubt was/is the best musician in the band. But as his solo records proved, he couldnt write a song. (He fared much better when he got some writers that actually understood what it is he does, and didnt try to write PinkFloyd songs.) Waters was never a real musician: he was the most punk of all of them, in terms of attitude and technique! But he is an ideas man. And he has a very industrial work ethic, and you cannot discount that. Wright was a lazy writer. When he did write, it was fkng beautiful. He just really needed to do more of it. His musicianship was solid, but was amplified by his taste. More than chops, he had great ideas, and knew how to wrap a melody. Well put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
