David Gilmour

[Kristy]

Okay, so you're FAT, overpaid, boring and rip off your (former) band for nostalgic prestige. But you still have that million dollar smile.

...and you make me a hypocrite because while I think Pink Floyd was by far the worst thing to ever to music making it something people want to place a nickle-plated revolver to their temple I just LOVE your first album.

It's trippy druggy and innovative. The beautifully crafted 'Raise My Rent' you know, you can fuck to that tune, Davey boy, and then 'Cry From The Street' with the simple power chordal structure, the cultic (and haunting) 'There's No Way Out Of Here' complete with tightly woven background vocals and 'Milhalis' which is just guitar glitter gloating! So, what happened, Dave? What went wrong? Was it because this record was a commercial flop? Was it you were more interested in the money? The whole god damn Pink Floyd phenomenon that blinded your way? Are you angry, bored, listless with your former band mate Rodger and his whole how he was bullied for writing shit poetry and his dead father dying in the war stories? Dave you can do better! In fact, you have done better. We'll always have your first record as a cherished memory. Always.

[ELVIS]

What a bitch™ you are...

Nice blue question marks, BTW...

Shut the fuck up for once, Elvie

[ELVIS]

Shut the hell up with your negativitah...


:mad2:

[lesfunk]

Yeah, but he owns a P-51 Mustang and that's fucking cool.

[Kristy]

I knew Dave choose that plane over me.

[lesfunk]

Here it is. "Comfortably Numb"

[lesfunk]

I knew Dave choose that plane over me.

IS That the reason you are being a negative vibe merchant? Did Gilmour Spurn your amorous advances?

Jeez, complain much?

David Gilmour needing money? :lmao: He's given away more than the combined lifetime earnings of the entire Roth Army membership!

You need to go out and get some fresh air or get your vag pounded for a few hours....

Lighten up a bit, huh....

I'm talking Gilmour 1978, assface.

You mean to stop making those crappy Pink Floyd titled piles of shit he did during the 80's (and 90's)? Obviously.

3rd grade was cool. 1st girlfriend, she got an extra special valentines. the rest of the kids got the perferated shit cards that came with the paas easter egg kit.

About the only thing I remember clearly from that time was that it snowed in Florida the year before, and the Skynyrd plane crash a few months later.

[ThrillsNSpills]

I never heard his solo album but I'm surprised if it was a flop.
I figured all the Floyd fans would grab it.

[Kristy]

It was pre-Wall Floyd. And it's a decent record for somehow Gilmour left his ego at home during the recording sessions.

[sonrisa salvaje]

Man, i have such fond memories of listening to Dark Side and The Wall and just getting baked to the gills. I didn't care for the Final Cut at all and thought it was pretty depressing. I actually like a lot of moments from Momentary Lapse and Division Bell. The latter 2 are not great Floyd records but they aren't chopped liver either. I don't get the throwing stones at Floyd. I think of them as legends that had a good body of work - great at times, good at times and very little of low quality.

[lesfunk]

I liked his second solo album . I think it was " About Face" . Beautiful Fretless bass solo by Pino Palladino on "Murder"

[lesfunk]

Just for the record, I sided with Waters

[FORD]

Just for the record, I sided with Waters

No question.... Pink Floyd did not exist without Roger Waters. Gilmour is a brilliant guitarist, but not all that great of a songwriter on his own, and putting out his solo albums under the name of "Pink Floyd" (because the first two didn't sell) was ridiculous.

I can think of maybe a total of 4 Fake Floyd songs that were memorable.

[FORD]

You probably heard the single "There's No Way Out Of Here" on the radio though (at least it gets airplay on the classic rock stations around here). It's a decent song that would fit right into any of the Floyd albums in the mid 70's. Or had Gilmour not recorded it when he did, it might have become part of "The Wall" (I've heard that Gilmour actually wrote part of "Comfortably Numb" while making that solo album, though obviously it became a totally different thing once Waters got a hold of it.)

[Kristy]

Just for the record, I sided with Waters

You would.

[lesfunk]

You would.
LOL... What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

[Kristy]

What do you think it means?

[lesfunk]

I don't know. That's why I asked.

[binnie]

I like it when Kristy speaks her mind.

I really can't stand Pink Floyd - I'm not saying they're no good (far from it) but way, way too indirect for me personally. Consequently, I've never really indulged in their solo work. On the strength of this thread I might.

[Nitro Express]

It's so depressing in here. Good bye Blue Sky.

[lesfunk]

nice bass solo

[FORD]

Just on the outside chance that someone out there has never heard this song........


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxbpYSRYG_w

[Kristy]

It's a good tune. Not the best one on the album - but close.

[Kristy]

I don't know. That's why I asked.

Not sure myself. Tried to pull an Elvis on you by giving you a glib answer which really isn't a answer at all in order to self-delude myself further that I am smarter than you.


Re-reading that gave me a headache.

[lesfunk]

Oh I have no doubt that you're smarter than me. If you wanted to pull an Elvis you could have just called me a n*****

[Diamondjimi]

I'm talking Gilmour 1978, assface.

And I was referring to you questioning money as his motivation... Sourpuss.


Who's the librarian hooker in your Av.?

I felt sorry for it...

[FORD]

Not to get back on topic or anything, but this might be a good time to throw in one of the few good Fake Floyd songs. Maybe some here should pay attention to the lyrics?

[Terry]

Meh.

No use for Floyd post-The Wall, save for a few tracks from The Final Cut.

A Momentary Lapse Of Reason and The Division Bell even on their own merits aren't very strong records, never mind compared to what Floyd put out in the 1970s when they were at their apex, and that's a valid comparison to make because Gilmour was essentially trying to pull a Waters in terms of lyrics, delivery and structure on Lapse and Bell.

Gilmour's solo stuff was solid. I mean, yes it was a bit cowardly in one sense for him to release material and tour under the Floyd name after Waters quit (and it would have been just as cowardly had Waters done the same thing). The commerical potential and ticketbuying appeal was probably too much for Glimour to resist. I'd like to think were I in the same situation I wouldn't have done the same thing, but I probably would have as well. The fact that Waters was no longer there hardly stopped people from going to the late 1980s / early 1990s "Pink Floyd" concerts in droves, did it?

It's as if Heidi Fleiss managed to dissuade Michael Jackson from buggering little boys just long enough to shoot a load into her cocaine-addled ovaries, and this is the matured, mutated result.

[GreenBayLA]

Back on topic, here is a good cover of Gilmour's cover. I still prefer his version but Monster Magnet do an interesting take on the old Unicorn song.

[GreenBayLA]

The Unicorn original, folksy with a bit of bluegrass.

[ELVIS]

Dang Krusty, you have some famous folks !!


:biggrin:

That's awful.

[ELVIS]

We agree!!!


:biggrin:

[binnie]

Nothing wrong with Monster magnet - their early records are, quite frankly, staggering.
