The May 1978 release of Pink Floyd keyboardist Rick Wright's first solo album, "Wet Dream," coincided with guitarist David Gilmour's self-titled release. Both Wright and Gilmour went about their solo business, as Roger Waters hunkered down to write "The Wall" (1979) following the band's 1977 "Animals" album, and subsequent "In the Flesh" tour.

"Wet Dream," like Gilmour's solo effort, was recorded at Super Bear Studios in France, where both would return shortly after, to record "The Wall." (Wright recorded his material from Jan. 10, 1978, to Feb. 14.) Wright had been living in Greece at the time, in tax exile from his native England.

Wright produced the album himself, and used guitarist Snowy White, who had recently toured with the Floyd, as well as Mel Collins, a saxophonist who would continue to have associations with Floyd.
