My goal is really to continue to make music. I really don’t make music to have platinum records and all that kind of stuff. I’ve been there. I do it because I love music, and I love uplifting people through my music. That’s my real goal. Gary Wright Read Quote

I had no idea ‘The Dream Weaver’ would be so successful. Everything just fell into place with that album. I pioneered a number of ideas with that album and subsequent tour. The all-keyboard approach with no guitars was a new one, and I was one of the first to use a drum machine in concert. It was an amazing time. Gary Wright Read Quote

I was the first artist, I think, to ever do an all-keyboard album. There were things that resembled it, like Stevie Wonder. A lot of his stuff was on keyboards, but he used brass and he used other things as well. I was the first artist, also, to use drum machines. I was really the one who kind of started that whole thing.
