David Gilmour

Music is a part of my life and as something I did sometimes mention on that old Friends Reunited blog and while I may get around to talking more about my liking of the Pink Floyd one day, there is an solo album by a member I do like

Simply entitled David Gilmour, this originally came out on May 26th 1978 between that bands Animals album and the late 1979 album The Wall and is a fairly sombre album which I do like 

This is a original UK first issue from that year with it's lime green Harvest logo that I own although it was re-issued on EMI's Fame mid price label in 1983.

In some ways it's the more mellow end of the regular Pink Floyd sound mixed in with an element of Jazz.

I first heard it on the Friday Night Rock Show with the late Tommy Vance in the late 70's and early 80's and also on the Into The Music show he present around 1984 and 1985 when he played classic album tracks with a nod to the new compact disc versions.

My favourite track is the single There Is No Way Out Of Here.
