WATERS SLAMS INSECURE FLOYD BANDMATES.
ROGER WATERS has hit out at former PINK FLOYD bandmates DAVE GILMOUR and RICK WRIGHT for convincing him he was a terrible musician.
Only after the group split and bassist Waters went on to perform with guitar legend ERIC CLAPTON did he discover he was actually talented.
He says, "In Pink Floyd I was being savaged - because Dave and Rick were kind of insecure, they'd always try and attack me, saying I sang out of tune or I couldn't really play.
"I said something about that to Eric and he said, 'Are you crazy? you're a great bass player.' I went, 'Oh yeah, maybe I am.'"
