Yeah. It's pretty good. Very slow and brooding with great guitar and Gilmour's trademark lilting vocals.

Sadly, I don’t see him completing this tour. He’s barely made it through the first two rehearsal performances, with his voice not having recovered from the first a week prior. I predict many cancellations if not an all out halt of the tour altogether.
What are you basing this on?Originally Posted by Le Master
I sampled the rehearsal, the Brighton rehearsals and Rome shows,
It is true that his voice is not as angelic as it used to be and some coarseness is creeping in, on the other hand it is expected at his age and also there is no degradation as the shows progress, so what do you mean by "barely made it through"?
Er, do you have any evidence of this? All the video clips I've watched are very good.
As one who saw the first Brighton show, this is errant nonsense, there was no hint of a struggle to “make it through the set”. I’ve no idea why this opinion has been given airtime.
Maybe because the poster was unable to get a ticket for the show(s) ?
Retaliation post ?
Just a guess...
Listened to the album the other night. I agree with whoever said this may be Gilmour’s best solo album since his first. Not amazing, but seems solid with lots of sweet guitar solos.

Having seen the show yesterday- you are probably correct.
What an amazing show! What a production, everything was immaculate- the lights, the sound, the performance, not that I would expect anything else from DG.
The singing was great, just as good as the last time I saw him in previous tour, and better than some of the vocals on the bootlegs from the 70's.
Even though the show seemed highly orchestrated, there was still space left for improvisations on the guitar, sometime fantastic and sometimes underwhelming (marooned was a little of a letdown, but the rest of the solos were scorching hot)
All in all for me this exceeded my expectations and also previous tours by Gilmour and even 94 floyd earls court shows which I attended.
I watched Comfortably Numb from Wednesday(?) and thought is was tear-jerking.
He seemed so rusty in Brighton and Rome but he really did a great job here.
