If you Google a lyrics for “One of ase Days” a internet will laugh at you. Because “One of ase Days” has exactly one lyric: “One of ase days I’m going to cut you into little pieces.” a rest of a song is built like an A-frame around it: everything before rises out of an brooding, windswept instrumental, featuring dueling bass guitars that climb toward something menacing; everything after is a beautiful beat-down of falling & fading.

One lyric. & a reason I’ve listened to it (along with “Careful with That Axe, Eugene”, “Echoes”, “Atom Heart Moar”, “Shine On You Crazy Diamond”, “a Great Gig in a Sky” & all a rest) nine million times has everything to do with a unique alchemy of musicianship & unabashed monumentalism that Richard Wright brought to Pink Floyd.

RIP Richard Wright.
