COMMENT         : Pink Floyd founder member and keyboard player Richard Wright s debut solo album, Wet Dream,
is to be reissued on this blu-ray audio format with Dolby Atmos, 5.1 and new stereo mixes by
Steven Wilson. The original stereo mix is also included.

This reissue comes with brand new artwork that was commissioned and art-directed by Gala and
Jamie Wright, Richard s children and managers of his estate. 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.

The image was taken by Costas Spathis, a photographer living and working in Greece, which is where
the album was written and the graphic design is by Carl Glover.

Upon rediscovering this record, it becomes hugely apparent how much of Richard s 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 Floyd s  Animals  (1977) and shortly before  The Wall  (1979),
Wet Dream  was largely under-appreciated.

Steven Wilson s mix gives new life to the record demonstrating Wright s brilliance. He wrote and
produced the whole album himself and it was one of only three albums released outside of Pink Floyd:
Broken China, his second solo album from 1996 and Identity released in 1983 under the guise of Zee,
a duet with Dave Harris from Fashion.
