Release Notes:
--------
With last yearÆs album, The Endless River, supposedly marking the end of Pink
Floyd, this is an opportune time for their guitarist to release his fourth solo
album. As the primary architect of FloydÆs sweeping soundscapes, Gilmour has
transposed them on to 10 shorter but equally elegiac, very beautiful songs, half
of them written with his wife, the novelist Polly Samson. ThereÆs an
underdeveloped ôa day in the lifeö theme running throughout; whose life isnÆt
clear, but the twilit A Boat Lies Waiting û with sighing harmonies by David
Crosby and Graham Nash, and a mumbled monologue similar to that on The Great Gig
in the Sky û is dedicated to late keyboardist Richard Wright, so this may be
GilmourÆs own life on display. If it is, heÆs preoccupied these days with
looking back: the autumnal Faces of Stone ruminates on old age, while the
fragile jazz confection The Girl in the Yellow Dress looks back at his earliest
musical influence. Fittingly, the instrumental finale, And Thenà, quietly ebbs
away, leaving pleasurable melancholy in its wake.
