Home / Pink Floyd Lyrics / The Endless River Lyrics Following the death of Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright, The Endless River was their final Pink Floyd album. “The Endless River” is the fifteenth and final studio album by the English rock band Pink Floyd, released in 2014. The album features recordings from sessions held during the 1990s and features extensive use of synthesizers and ambient sounds, making it a departure from the band’s more rock-oriented albums.
Pink Floyd fans do love their technical details and ultra high quality in my opinion. The good news then is that several Pink Floyd albums are now available in this new immersive 360 degree audio. For some reason, I have not got round to putting my Sony headphones through their paces with this 360 degree audio – the Sony App wants photos of my ears to optimise itself! Bizarre! Just because its Pink Floyd, I might give it a go later! For those of you who are yet to experience them, Pink Floyd’s albums are now available digitally in Ultra HD quality, and some are also in immersive 360 Reality Audio. Hear the albums with all of the nuance and power of the original studio recordings. They are on Deezer and Amazon Music. Discuss this on the forum.

The late Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright has a new official website set up, presumably by his family. The site has sections covering an “about” the site/project, interviews with and about Rick, music inspired by and most loved by Richard, a very comprehensive breakdown of his equipment through the years and various projects including gear by album, a live section featuring live videos including the beautiful Breakthrough Rick solo song from David GIlmour’s RAH DVD, photography from Rick’s trip across the Atlantic in his boat, and a scrapbook of various images from over the years. Rick’s family say on the Official Richard Wright website… Welcome to the Richard Wright website, a space which aims to offer a unique insight into his musical life. This site doesn’t profess to be a comprehensive or encyclopaedic source of Richard Wright facts and figures or trivia. It is rather somewhere to explore and...
David Gilmour made an appearance on Later With Jools Holland on the BBC that you can watch online. He was being interviewed about Pink Floyd’s new album The Endless River which is released in the UK tomorrow 10th November. Your humble narrator has been listening to it all weekend and it’s pretty good if not a little different. You can watch the interview from 16 minutes 30 seconds in. However, there is loads of great music on the show so perhaps even watch the whole thing. The video is there for another 28 days. If you are watching the full show notice that Guy Pratt, who played bass for Pink Floyd after Roger Waters left, is playing bass for Bryan Ferry. Just saying. He’s pretty good.
A new 9 minute video has been published on Amazon’s website featuring an interview with David Gilmour and Nick Mason. You can watch it, using a desktop computer, at this link.

There is a particular focus on Richard Wright’s contribution to the album. Enjoy the video and leave a comment below.
You can now watch the full Pink Floyd new album press kit on the Amazon website which runs for a full 10 minutes. Previously there have been two shorter electronic press kit videos (EPKs) made available but this is the full one for you to enjoy. The video tells the story of how the new Pink Floyd album The Endless River came about and offers some anecdotes about its recording process, including being cramped in a very small studio space with lots of recording equipment and recalling being banned from the Royal Albert Hall where they recorded Richard Wright playing the organ there which features on the new album. The management were also not pleased with Nick Mason putting nails in the stage to keep his drum kit in place! Tomorrow is the month in which the new album is released on multiple formats. To see the formats in which...
