David Gilmour Shines in Pink Floyd's New 'Endless River' PreviewNew album snippet puts the guitarist's unmistakable soloing in the spotlightBy Daniel Kreps | October 4, 2014
The two-decade wait for a new Pink Floyd album ends
November 10th with The Endless River, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band has unveiled another 30-second preview of what fans can expect from their first LP in 20 years. While the first Endless River tease leaned toward the more ambient, "Marooned" sound of 1994 Floyd and the second focused on late keyboardist Rick Wright's contributions, this third audio clip puts David Gilmour into the spotlight.
That guitar sound is unmistakably Gilmour's, and it still radiates as brightly as it did on "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," even though this brief snippet, despite its "Run Like Hell" undercurrent, is more reminiscent of Gilmour's late-Seventies solo tracks like "Raise My Rent" and "Short and Sweet" than his Floyd output. The bass is also nearly invisible in the mix, a reminder that Roger Waters is in no way involved with The Endless River.
