    Tomorrow in the UK, but Tuesday in the US!

    The release of "On An Island". I purposefully have not downloaded it because I wanted to buy it and have all the material to go with it.

    This is the first Gilmour studio CD release since 1994! Not counting the 2002-3 "Meltdown" DVD.

    I am SO PUMPED! [​IMG]

    I've just realized that this is the greatest album I've ever heard in my entire life.


    It's #1 in the the UK and hopefully will soon be here.

    BUY IT NOW!!!!

    Only heard it through once in my boyfriends car, but seemed pretty good. Looking forward to getting better acquainted with it!

    I would highly recommend just for the song 'This Heaven' alone. It's absolutley catchy and rocking!

    And it's the best seller on amazon! I dont think a solo-Floyd album has ever been this successful.

    Hey...that's not true.

    PINK FLOYD was more than just Gilmour (I love him!)

    It was an experience. It was Gilmour, Waters, Mason, & Wright (and Syd).

    Gilmour's contribution was phenonemal and I LOVE the new album, but don't blaspheme the Floyd, man.

    I liked early Floyd. The Syd Years, myself.

    Maybe not as much as Gilmour, but I don't think Rog, Nick and Rick SUCK without Dave.

    I love the Syd stuff. It took a little getting used to, but now my band actually covers some of it, and it's great fun. Naturally we sort of give them a modern re-tooling (no point playing other people's music note-for-note after all) but they always go over well.

    That said, though, I think Floyd's peak was 70-75.

    This album is way better than anything Floyd have done since the Final Cut. For once it seems that Gilmour is really thinking about his compositions - there's some lovely chord changes in there, as well as his best guitar work in years. And his lyrics seem to have improved a lot (although I'm not sure how many of those were written by others).

    I'm not sure about the rest of the album, but that first song he released from it wasn't bad...
