The 1976 hit songs “Dream Weaver” and “Love Is Alive” are what made Gary Wright, an American musician and composer (April 26, 1943 — September 4, 2023) most famous. After spending seven years in London performing as a solo artist on A&M Records and alternating as a member of the British blues rock band Spooky Tooth, Wright released his breakthrough album, The Dream Weaver, in 1975.
