Description
Hugely influential Pink Floyd founder member and keyboard player Richard Wrights debut solo album, Wet Dream, is reissued. Remixed by Steven Wilson, this reissue comes with brand new artwork that was commissioned and art-directed by Gala and Jamie Wright, Richards children and managers of his estate. As per the original release, the bi-fold sleeve folds out to extend the image and features the same vibrant colour palette. This time, the unidentified person in bright red shorts is swimming within deep blue waters of the sea rather than a pool and the image expands out to reveal a boat slightly out of their reach, referencing the nautical theme of the record. Upon rediscovering this record, it becomes hugely apparent how much of Richards DNA runs through Pink Floyd. His distinct rhythm patterns, song structure and style of play exudes throughout, shining a light on his unique talent and influence on modern music. When originally released, post Pink Floyds Animals (1977) and shortly before The Wall (1979), Wet Dream was largely under-appreciated.
