New David Gilmour record:any feedback?

Just picked up the CD this weekend and I really like it! I know I'm probably swimming up stream when I say this but I've always preferred Gilmour over Roger Waters. This album reminds me of work on Momentary Lapse of Reason and Division Bell. Very well produced. I'm considering getting this on vinyl as well.

Dan ed I'm swimming with you on this one too. I prefer Floyd when Gilmour came aboard. This CD reminds me more of The Division Bell in that it's material is not as strong as A Momentary Lapse of Reason.

Jaybo-
Your comment is really funny. Really. Thanks.

While I like the new Gilmour CD, I think that he needs Roger Waters alongside -- for that matter, Waters needs Gilmour too. Not sure that Lennon and McCartney are the right analogy, but they're the partners who can produce some magical music if they can't just refrain from killing each other. Gilmour is like McCartney, needs the partner to add some b*lls to the material. Waters is like Lennon, who benefits from a partner's ability to tone down the sarcasm or cynicism. Hey, I said the analogy might not hold -- but it's better than comparing the bickering boys of Floyd to Sonny and Cher...

Happy Listening.

Pink Floyd turned down 250 million to regroup and tour after their charity show. The remaining group had to endure lawsuits from Waters and I think they feel they just don't need him. Let's give credit to Rick Wright too, he contributed to alot of the Floyd sound.
