Tracklisting & More Information

Pink Floyd guitarist/vocalist David Gilmour has announced his first solo album in nine years, Luck and Strange. The first track is "The Piper's Call."

Recorded during five months in Brighton and London, the record sees Gilmour team up with Alt-J producer Charlie Andrew. The collaboration pushed Gilmour to expand his horizons and rethink his traditional methods of composition. Lyrics were mostly written by Polly Samson, Gilmour's co-writer for the past 30 years.

The album features eight new tracks along with a beautiful reworking of The Montgolfier Brothers' "Between Two Points," which sees Romany Gilmour, who performs backing vocals across the album, on vocals and harp.

Musicians contributing to the record include Guy Pratt and Tom Herbert on bass, Adam Betts, Steve Gadd and Steve DiStanislao on drums, Rob Gentry and Roger Eno on keyboards and string and choral arrangements by Will Gardner. The title track also features the late Pink Floyd keyboard player Richard Wright, recorded in 2007 during a "Barn Jam" at Gilmour's house.

The album's cover image, photographed and designed by renowned artist Anton Corbijn, is inspired by lyrics written by Charlie Gilmour for the album's final song "Scattered."

"We invited Charlie (Andrew) to the house, so he came and listened to some demos, and said things like, 'Well, why does there have to be a guitar solo there?' and 'Do they all fade out? Can't some of them just end?'" Gilmour relayed.

"He has a wonderful lack of knowledge or respect for this past of mine. He's very direct and not in any way overawed, and I love that. That is just so good for me because the last thing you want is people just deferring to you."
