Ehhhhhhh, that's totally not true. Just because David is the one who is naturally influenced by it, doesn't mean the others can't create blues. Just look at Obscured By Clouds.

Rick himself said that his main influences were jazz-based. I didn't make that up. When they were interviewed for the Classic Albums DVD on the making of The Dark Side of the Moon, Rick was discussing how he came up with the chord sequence in Breathe, and mentioned that jazz was his main influence and that he had been listening to Kind of Blue by Miles Davis (a landmark jazz album) at the time.

I never said that Rick couldn't play the blues, I said that the blues weren't his main influence -- jazz was. The blues were David's main influence, though we can clearly see throughout their catalog that he could play various other styles as well.
