Us And Them is probably my favourite song of all time. His saxophone playing elevated several Pink Floyd songs to a whole other level.
Such an incredibly talented musician.

My dear friend Dick Parry died this morning.
Since I was seventeen, I have played in bands with Dick on saxophone, including Pink Floyd.
His feel and tone make his saxophone playing unmistakable, a signature of enormous beauty that is known to millions and is such a big part of songs such as Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Wish You Were Here, Us and Them and Money.
He played in the last band I had that included Rick Wright for the On An Island Tour and at Live 8 with Pink Floyd.
Here are some pictures of him, including one of him and me playing for the ABC Minors at the Victoria Cinema in Cambridge in 1963.
I looked through all the group stage fixtures a few weeks ago and decided I'll probably watch about 7/8 games. Where's the appeal in Spain v Cape Verde? 🫣
1994 World Cup group stage final standings — back when the tournament had just 24 teams.
This summer we’re going to 48.
Surely that dilutes the overall quality???
we used to have a whole team (and manager) with the same mentality. can't wait for his first interview after he's left when he doesn't have to bite his tongue.
I have witnessed this club go from doubters to believers, and from believers to champions. It took hard work and I always did everything I could to help the club get there. Nothing makes me prouder than that.
Us crumbling to yet another defeat this season was very painful and not what our fans deserve. I want to see Liverpool go back to being the heavy metal attacking team that opponents fear and back to being a team that wins trophies. That is the football I know how to play and that is the identity that needs to be recovered and kept for good. It cannot be negotiable and everyone that joins this club should adapt to it.
Winning some games here and there is not what Liverpool should be about. All teams win games.
Liverpool will always be a club that means a great deal to me and to my family. I want to see it succeed for long after I have moved on.
As I’ve always said, qualifying to next season’s Champions League is the bare minimum and I will do everything I can to make that happen.
we'd have to really balls thing up to not get top 5 now, so I'm going to the game today to solely enjoy watching Mo Salah play for us...just 3 Anfield games left for him 🇪🇬 👑
English Football League (EFL) clubs have rejected new Video Assistant Referee (VAR) proposals that would allow head coaches to challenge decisions made on the pitch by brandishing a review card.
At a recent meeting of EFL clubs, the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) — the organisation responsible for professional refereeing in England — demonstrated how the Football Video System (FVS) works.
The FVS is a video replay system that reviews key officiating calls, and it requires head coaches to give a card to the fourth official to signal their intent to challenge the decision.
Unlike the VAR system, the FVS does not use dedicated video match officials, which means it does not automatically review match-altering moments.
Following their last clubs’ meeting, the EFL asked for feedback on the proposals and it became clear that the clubs do not support the implementation of any additional technology.

Months after Pearl Harbor, Hopper’s Nighthawks (1942) shows sealed glass and neon glare. It represents an American archetype, not a specific diner.
The sleepless faces inside reflect a nation on edge. #artbots#hopper
