Prog Examines Richard Wright Solo Work in 2023
Prog magazine examined Richard Wright's solo work in 2023 following the reissue of his 1978 solo album Wet Dream.
In 2023, Prog magazine examined the solo work of Richard Wright on the occasion of the reissue of his 1978 solo album Wet Dream. The album Wet Dream was recorded between January and February 1978 at Super Bear Studios in Côte D’Azur. Although David Gilmour was the first member to release a solo album when Pink Floyd took a break, Wright's album was the first one recorded.
Wright's first heard solo recording was the 13-minute track Sysyphus on the 1969 album Ummagumma. After leaving Pink Floyd, Wright came together with Dave Harris to form a duo named Zee. His last solo album, Broken China, was released in October 1996 and features two performances by Sinéad O'Connor.
In the early 21st century, Wright joined the touring band for David Gilmour's On An Island album. David Gilmour was the only person to attend all three of Wright's weddings.
