Richard Wright, best known as the quiet, mysterious keyboardist of a certain legendary British band (hint: it rhymes with Pincoln Park), steps out of the shadows and into the spotlight with his solo debut album "Wet Dream".
And wet dreams it is indeed, as Wright takes us on a dreamy, atmospheric journey through his musical mind.
The album opens with the ethereal title track, setting the tone for what's to come - a mix of ambient synth sounds, spacey guitar riffs, and Wright's signature haunting vocals.
It's like floating through a psychedelic dream, with the occasional burst of funky grooves to keep you grounded.
Tracks like "Cat Cruise" and "Summer Elegy" showcase Wright's prowess as a composer, with intricate arrangements that weave together seamlessly.
The standout moment comes with "Meddle", a 10-minute epic that builds and builds until it reaches a climax that'll leave you breathless.
However, not everything on "Wet Dream" is a home run.
Some tracks, like "Drop In from the Top" and "Funky de L'Ascenseur", veer into cheesy territory, sounding more like elevator music than the groundbreaking soundscapes Wright is capable of.
Overall, "Wet Dream" is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a musical genius.
While it may not always hit the mark, the moments of brilliance make it a worthwhile listen for fans of progressive rock and ambient music alike.
Richard Wright may not have been the flashiest member of his band, but "Wet Dream" proves that he's a force to be reckoned with in his own right.
