David Gilmour:
My dear friend Dick Parry died this morning.

Since I was seventeen, I have played in bands with Dick on saxophone, including Pink Floyd.

His feel and tone make his saxophone playing unmistakable, a signature of enormous beauty that is known to millions and is such a big part of songs such as Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Wish You Were Here, Us and Them and Money.

He played in the last band I had that included Rick Wright for the On An Island Tour and at Live 8 with Pink Floyd.

Here are some pictures of him, including one of him and me playing for the ABC Minors at the Victoria Cinema in Cambridge in 1963.
