Nice but what a shame he's doing Wish You Were Here....again.

I wonder why he always plays that one? I think Corporal Clegg should get more outings!

Re: David at Douglas Adams's "virtual" birthday
I'm amazed by the quality of the videos. I've always thought that the Procol Harum song was boring, but Gilmour's guitar work brings a little more life to it. It's also nice to hear him sing "Wish You Were Here" after so long. He still has that voice.

Well, at least Gilmour's homepage has had a couple of recent updates.
I refuse to listen to yet another version of WYWH...come on!

Re: David at Douglas Adams's "virtual" birthday
A Whiter Shade Of Pale has always sounded to me like boring church music. The kind of music they play while people wait in line to get a byte of the flesh of Jesus.
Doesn't he have like 3 solo albums full of songs he could play instead? Wonder why he never plays those...Keith Jordan wrote:I wonder why he always plays that one? I think Corporal Clegg should get more outings!

Re: David at Douglas Adams's "virtual" birthday
Whiter Shade of Pale. Ruined by Gilmour piddling about on his guitar. Stop pissing about with such a classic song. It is one song that should never be played different. It might be because I remember very well when it was first released. I never want to hear this version again. I'll go back to the original.
