Amid creative differences, Waters left in 1985 and began a legal dispute over the use of the band's name and material. By the early 1980s, they had become one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful groups in popular music. Pink Floyd achieved international success with the concept albums The Dark Side of the Moon (1973), Wish You Were Here (1975), Animals (1977), The Wall (1979), and The Final Cut (1983). Following the departure of singer-songwriter Syd Barrett in 1968, Waters also became the band's lyricist, co-lead vocalist and conceptual leader until his departure in 1985. In 1965, he co-founded the progressive rock band Pink Floyd as the bassist. George Roger Waters (born 6 September 1943) is an English musician, singer-songwriter and composer.
