But once that happened he could have gone and been the best musician in the horrors. Five members in that band, none of them musically competent.

Does richey play guitar on any studio recordings?
Sorry for bombing this board with so many questions, but here it goes: a friend of mine resently told me that Richey didnīt play on any of the studio recordings. But I Have a distinct feeling he did. Anyone care to enlighten me?

Single strums on the intro of Tristesse and rumoured rhythm on No Surface All Feeling. I don't believe there are any other instances.

Apparently.
That explains a lot... The lyrics on KYE have always seemed like a joke to me. "Freedom of speech won't feed my children"... *shudders*

I think that the rythm guitar at the end of No Surface all Feeling is sure. That's why they didn't re-recorded it after his dissapereance, because he had recorded a guitar part for it. I think that some producer or who confirmed it.

The way I see it, Richey was a more sober, artier, androgynous version of Bez from the Mondays...

Sober in the sense that he wasn't on Class-A drugs.
