Rick Wright (Keyboards, Pink Floyd] : Paint Box and Remember A Day were done soon after Syd left and we still hadn't established the way the band was going to work. Syd, I am sad to say, was no longer capable of working so it came down to Roger, Dave and myself writing songs and I think it came later that we started writing songs together.

At that time of course, I tried to sing my songs, Roger tried to sing his and then Dave joined the band and Dave clearly had the best lead vocals voice at that time so then Roger and I basically stopped singing the local vocals and became backup singers and harmony voices. And I was never that confident with my voice.

For example, Echoes was where we discovered the best music we created at the time was when all three of us got together and collaborated rather than individually coming to the studio with a song.
