THINK FLOYD BIOGS

Richard Morse

 

Richard Morse has been a guitarist and Pink Floyd fan since an early age.  As a teenager he played in an original rock band who's set at one time included 'In The Flesh' and 'Another Brick In The Wall'. Their list of gigs regularly included London venues such as the Marquee. After leaving that band Richard continued to play in covers bands whose styles ranged from Blues to Acoustic Rock, but nothing as dedicated as a tribute band.

In the year before joining Think Floyd Richard attempted to start his own Floyd tribute, this didn't get past rehearsals due to some band members having heavy musical commitments elsewhere but it was at these rehearsals in SE London where he saw Think Floyd's advert looking for a guitarist. He made the call and was soon playing his first gig with Think Floyd to over 3000 people at the Peterborough Beer Festival in August 2003.

Richard first time became aware of Pink Floyd watching the Knebworth festival on TV during the summer of 1990 during the dying days of the 'Delicate Sound Of Thunder' tour. Richard says "It's fair to say that for quite some time I have been obsessed with the Gilmour guitar style. When asked to name a favourite Floyd track, album or Gilmour guitar solo, I always struggle, so here are a few of my favourites:  'Time', 'Shine On', 'Wish You Were Here', 'Comfortably Numb'. Favourite album? 'Wish You Were Here', although that will probably change next week!"
