The other day i went by Tower Records and got me
the new David Gilmour album titled “On an island”.
Now i have always been a David Gilmour fun and his first solo album
released in 1978 is one of my all time favourites.
I was all excited on my way home and the first thing i did was
to put the cd on my new stereo system.
The sound landscape Gilmour creates is one of a kind!
Although i live on an Island his sound always brings pictures
of a Greek Island I love. Crete!
Agia Roumeli to be more specific on the south coast of Chania.
The first instumental is called “Castellorizon” which is a Greek island
near Rhodes where he keeps a house for himself!
At least he did way back when i met him there in person hanging around!
The production is superb and i love the vocal harmonies
on the second track “On An Island” by David Crosby
and Graham Nash.
Once again David you got me hooked!
