Description:

Released in 1987. This is the first release of the new Pink Floyd, released after the departure of Roger Waters, who was the nucleus of the band, and the court case for the right to use the mastermind behind the band's relaunch. The album features David Gilmour and Nick Mason, along with such stellar guests as Jim Keltner, Tony Levin, and Bill Payne. Writers include Anthony Moore and Phil Manzanera.Despite the wide variety of songs, the sound-making by Gilmour and co-producer Bob Ezrin brings a sense of unity to the work. The spectacular cover, shot on a beach with real beds, is by Storm Torgerson, formerly of Hypnosis. The album reached #3 on both the UK and US charts.
