Richard Wright is the subject of a short but interesting interview with Reuters news agency today. Focusing on the 40th anniversary of The Piper At The Gates of Dawn, he talks about Syd Barrett's songwriting talents.

Tantalisingly, when asked about solo projects, Richard replied: "I've got various ideas. I'm going to do an instrumental album, based on the piano, and I've (got) loads of stuff recorded. It depends how I treat the piano, and whether I need other musicians to play on it. I've got the compositions down. But it's not imminent -- hopefully next year."
