Rick Wright was the keyboardist and one of the founding members of the psychedelic group Pink Floyd. In 1978, he released his first solo album, Wet Dream. The following year, Floyd's leader Roger Waters fired Wright and re-hired him as a sideman; when the group reformed minus Waters to release 1987's A Momentary Lapse of Reason, Wright was back on board, although he wasn't reinstated as a full-time member until the supporting tour for 1994's The Division Bell.
