New David Gilmour record:any feedback?

I have some friends that told me about this CD a couple of weeks ago because they want to listen to it on my system, so I brought it home and listened to the whole thing with a clear head... I didn't enjoy it. Athough "I think" it is a well recorded and well produced CD (What would you expect with Phil Manzanera on the production team),I once again realized that (at least for me) you must or have to be in the right mood or frame of mind to thorougly enjoy this recording or anything Pinkfloyd....So, this evening I decided to relax and cop a good buzz with my favorite beverage and listen... I think my friends and I are gona get right and spin this at my next party this weekend.

Bought it, sorry I did. Very disappointing. I tried to think of something good to say about it as I'm a huge PF fan, but Dave ripped us off with this one. Might be time to hang it up?

Sounds like what he did in the 80's.. Same as it ever was,you think he may venture toward a new window. Ben Harper is an artist willing to take multiple chances even on the same recording. This guy is varied and very tallented, always a pleasant suprise of lyric and sonics.Tom

Is it just me or do others think some parts sound like Allen Parsons(on the vocals)?

My wife surprised me with tickets to go to the Kodak Theater in Hollywood on Weds. I had no idea who we were going to see until we got past the door, about to the concession barrel of beer and BOOM!! The concert had just kicked off. I was in shock to say the least! I love Gilmour. They played the whole album the first set. I guess I've been a little too wrapped up in work, kids sports etc..but I didn't know he had another cd out till this week. It sounded awesome there to say the least! When we got home I downloaded it...only like a few of the songs at home though. A little boring if you can't watch him live I guess. The older stuff still KICKS ASS!!
