Richey - piano

[Donkey]

Reading wiki I found this:

Richey Edwards (Richard James Edwards) – rhythm guitar, piano, lyrics, backing vocals (1989–1995)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manic_Street_Preachers

What's this based on? Piano? moreover what song did he contributed backing vocals for?

[Deets]

backing vocals, yes, not sure if more of urban legend but there was some one song backing vocals, wasn't it something in GATS era? I have a vague memory of reading this somewhere.

about piano though, no, no idea. damn, even the fact he played rhythm guitar is not much confirmed, left alone piano

Someone has modified wikipedia once again... they have putted wire as the pianist on several manics songs

I'm sure I remember seeing a pic of Richey sat at a piano…

Anyway, I could easily believe he played part of the piano at the end of La Tristesse… I mean the bit that goes something like … G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G G

...which is a lot of notes, just not different ones. (no offence, it's about as far as my piano playing goes too).

There's a C in there as well

I'm sure I remember several with him holding a guitar. Your point?

He may well have played the gee gees

lol

yes, I think he's marked as backing vocalist on GATS, I always thought it was Roses, but listening to Roses it seems to me like Nicky only...

If Neil Colding could play some Suede songs with one finger... Richey could too.
