Of course, they could add a couple songs off of Gdansk to have some well-known song titles
and add some bonus stuff for the deluxe edition. Hot pies! :lol:


You know what pic belongs here. Glad it stays in the next post coz you will not get rid of it.

I'd buy it just for an audio-only version of "Breakthrough" with Gilmour at the RAH

i really liked broken china, especially for those instrumental parts. so a purely instrumental album sounds ace! it wouldnt even need [insert pink floyd bandmember's name of your choice]'s collaboration.

Hi :)

In fact, he had been working on it for years. And David was supposedly collaborating as well.

It was going to be an instrumental album, so no Moore. I don't believe Gilmour worked on it before Rick's death (but, I bet he would have at least been a guest on a song or two, if Rick did not die). I believe Guy Pratt did a bit of work on it...there is an interview somewhere...

I'm sure they got plenty of money out of him when he was alive.
