Ryszard Henryk Riedel (7 September 1956 – 30 July 1994) was the original lead singer of the blues-rock band Dżem. He is regarded as one of the most popular and well-known Silesian vocalists, alongside occasional collaborator Czesław Niemen. Riedel's legacy is remembered by an annual festival in his hometown of Chorzów, which was moved from Tychy in 2009. He became one of the most powerful vocalists in Polish music, just after Czesław Niemen. He was known for his powerful voice and autobiographical lyrics, which were often inspired by his personal struggles with drug addiction. His last concert with Dżem was on 16 March 1994 in Kraków. Riedel is celebrated as one of the best all-time singers in Polish musical history, and Rolling Stone magazine described him as "the last hippie of our time."
