Just got the following in my inbox:
David Gilmour’s first solo live album captures the magic of his concert held in front of 50,000 fans in the Gdańsk shipyards in Poland. This final performance from his critically acclaimed 2006 ‘On An Island’ tour features Pink Floyd classics never previously performed with an orchestra.
I’m quite surprised that I barely knew anything about this, if anything at all but I can’t get over how excited I am about it! Pink Floyd tracks with an orchestra, that will sound great.
Yes it’s already pre-ordered, but if you want a preview then they have these:
- Comfortably Numb – really quite incredible
- Astronomy Domine
So yeah, that was a pretty cool thing to find this morning, can’t wait for it to arrive and now I must stop tapping the table at work, people are looking!

That looks cool Dan. I love the London Philharmonic’s album of Floyd covers, so I can imagine that Gilmour + orchestra will = awesomeness!
