coloradojohn Nov 15, 2012 - 16:45 | This is so incredibly awesome and monumentally jamming in the way it builds, stands, and fades out...truly distinctively GILMOUR, too! |
metod Sep 13, 2012 - 19:07 | I love this album...from the beginning till the end. One of David's best solo works... |
Antz_Davis Sep 01, 2012 - 03:13 | Gilmour a real musical talent - His best solo work outside of Floyd - crafted layered guitars as you would expect from Gilmour - real hints of Wish you were here - a real complement! |

But honestly: Would we be listening to this languid song were it not for the reputation of his earlier work? Let me answer my own question: No, I wouldn't give this song the time of day were it not for my familiarity with Gilmour's other (better) work. I would be listening. I love this guy's guitar playing. |
JIan Jul 31, 2012 - 17:16 | What I would expect from Gilmour: Singing, ethereal guitar work, with masterful bends and a sensitive touch of the strings few can match. The peaceful atmosphere of his personal houseboat-recording studio is reflected well in this album. |
caregiver Jul 31, 2012 - 17:11 | All the better for having Crosby and Nash on background vocals. |
linzie Jul 12, 2012 - 21:16 | Im biased...I admit it...cant believe this is already since 2006?!!! Havent heard the whole album, but just cant get enuff of the guitar, the sound...so sue me |

He never plays ten notes where one will suffice. It's not about the dazzle - it's about the shine. Miss you so much, Ann... rest in peace... |
