		David Gilmour’s solo career hasn’t exactly been creatively restless; this is but the third album by the Pink Floyd guitarist, and first in 18 years.
		Gilmour’s choice of collaborators is equally compelling, from the evocative orchestrations of Polish classical modernist Zbigniew Preisner and expected contributions from Floyd (Richard Wright and proto-Pink mate Rado "Bob" Klose) to a host of guest turns that span both decades and styles: Georgie Fame, Phil Manzanera, Jools Holland, Caroline Dale and Robert Wyatt.
		David Gilmour will be videotaping a DVD at the concert at Royal Albert Hall In London at the end of May! Don't know when it'll be...

		Floyd guitarist David Gilmour embarked on his first solo effort following Floyd's 1977's "Animals" album, and the resulting In the Flesh tour.
		"David also asked (Unicorn's) Ken Baker if he could write some lyrics for another two or three songs that were going on the album, but Ken only writes from experience and had to decline," Martin adds.
		Gilmour's solo LP, titled, simply, "David Gilmour," was released in May 25, 1978 — coinciding with keyboardist Rick Wright's first solo album, "Wet Dream." It was self-produced, with Storm Thorgerson providing cover photos.

		Gilmour's first new solo album since 1984's experimental About Face sees the Pink Floyd frontman return to the style of his 1978 debut, which is more in keeping with the classic Pink Floyd sound.
		Gilmour's trademark slow-tempo delivery is thankfully intact and his voice is on fine form throughout.
		Gilmour's songs have a sad truth to them, an older, wiser Gilmour is singing here, but happily not referring to I-pods or mobile phones, like many older musicians feel they have to, to make themselves fit in to the modern music scene.

		Released in 1978, David Gilmour's debut solo album is a generally low-key effort.
		Gilmour's blues influence really bubbles to the surface on many of the tracks here.
		Gilmour does seem to be coasting a bit here, and if he would have brought some more passion and focus to the proceedings (like he would do on his subsequent "About Face"), this maybe could have been a great album.

	David Gilmour @ Royal Albert Hall, London : gig review
		On the third night of David Gilmour's Albert Hall mini residency the eyes were becoming a little misty.
		Gilmour arrived to a hero's reception, inaugurating a series of mini standing ovations just three minutes in.
		Drawing breath at the interval, Gilmour returned with fire in his belly for an exultant set of greats, the accompanying light show pointing phaser-like darts around the hall or bisecting the upper tiers with graceful, slow moving sine waves.

	Amazon.co.uk: David Gilmour (Us Import): Music: David Gilmour (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		I think the fact that Gilmour is so musically talented is the downfall of this album as he handles much of the writing for the guitar, piano/keyboard and drum work.
		Here, Gilmour has none of the pretensions of his wayward band mate Waters, who’s eventual solo records would carry on the concept, high production benchmark set on records like Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here, instead his goal is to ape the sound of the blues guitarists he so admirers...
		Gilmour keeps things moving at a leisurely pace, creating a relaxed and melancholic mood, perfect for those late night moments, while the songs belie the usual PF format by relying more heavily on shorter running times with less instrumental build-up.

	DAVID GILMOUR discography, MP3 and reviews
		David GILMOUR was born in Cambridge in 1944.
		While he didn't write much of their material, his amazing guitar playing was huge in forging what would go on to be known as the definitive PINK FLOYD sound.
		GILMOUR's solo work is unremarkable despite it's merrits, and while fans of his guitar playing should give it a listen, don't expect to be blown away.

	David Gilmour: On An Island (2006): Reviews
		David has produced an album of lullaby lyrics coupled with soaring trademark guitar- a veritable feast of lush 'sleepy' music.
		Gilmour sounds uninspired and should have waited until he had better material to work with.
		Gilmour is certainly on form, and although there are Floyd trademarks placed everywhere on this record he manages to make himself stand out as a solo artist.

		Gilmour’s father, a stockbroker who suffered from alcoholism and depression, took his life.

		David's album was recorded in late 1977/early 1978 in Superbear Studios in France with David producing and handling guitars, vocals and keyboards.
		Dissapointing i know, especially considering Gilmour's incredible contributions to Pink Floyd: it was his visceral guitar tone and blistering riffs, not to mention his highly orgasmic solos that brought commercial interest to the bands eclectic sound.
		Unfortunately on David Gilmour most of the songs suffer from an utter lack of melody, "Theres no way out of Here" has a plethora of riffs but no personality, the same goes from "Cry from the Street", "So far away", and "No Way".

		David Jon Gilmour was born on 6th March, 1946, in Grantchester Meadows, Cambridge.
		David Gilmour is (arguably) one of the most talented rock guitarists ever, and certainly adds much definition to the Pink Floyd sound.
		Gilmour's expressive playing is the staple of such songs as "Echoes," "Comfortably Numb," and "Marooned" (the latter of which is so evocative to me that it sounds as if he could be "crying" through his instrument, spilling out all the pain for which he cannot find the words).

		Fans of David should be particularly grateful to Robert, for as curator of the 2001 Meltdown music festival, he coaxed David into performing at London’s Royal Festival Hall.
		Due to popular demand, today's blog entry is a chance for you to let David's wife, Polly, know that her contribution to David's 'On An Island' album, tour - and not least, this website - has been so very much appreciated.
		More people have written asking when we'll devote a day to Polly than they did for any of the musicians, which is a testament to her huge influence.
