He was 65.
The rock group's spokesman, Doug Wright, who's unrelated, said Wright died
after a battle with cancer at his home in Britain. He said the band member's
family did not want to give more details about his death.
Wright met Pink Floyd members Roger Waters and Nick Mason in college and
joined their early band, Sigma 6. Along with the late Syd Barrett, the four
formed Pink Floyd in 1965.

Wright's influence was minimised, and he was fired from the band during
recording, only returning on a fixed wage for the live shows in support of
the album. Waters gave the reason for Richard Wright's dismissal as the
latter's minimal contribution,[44] in part due to a cocaine addiction.[45]
Waters claimed that David Gilmour and Nick Mason supported Waters' decision
to fire Wright, but in 2000, Gilmour stated that he and Mason were against
Wright's dismissal.[46] A
