Roger Waters, the former leader of Pink Floyd, told BBC World on Thursday that he regrets the legal dispute he has had with other members of the rock group for years.

After leaving the group in 1985, Waters, its founder, sued David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Rick Wright for using the Pink Floyd name, AFP reports.

"I thought they were wrong, and actually I was wrong. When I said, 'Look, it's over, Pink Floyd is gone,' they said, 'What are you talking about? It's a brand with commercial value, you can't just say she's gone,'" said Waters, who is 70 years old today.

The bass guitarist, who started a solo career after leaving Pink Floyd, said in the same interview that he is preparing to enter the studio again.

"I have a very clear idea in my head that I will develop and release at least one more album," said Waters, who released his last album "Ca Ira" in 2005.

In recent years, Waters has performed on major world stages with the rock opera "The Wall," Pink Floyd's most famous work from 1979.
