David Gilmour - Luck and Strange (2024)
Luck and Strange marks David Gilmour's return with a thoughtful, melancholic touch, reflecting on themes of aging, mortality, and the unpredictability of life. The album blends classic Pink Floyd textures with more experimental elements, such as influences from fado and flamenco. Gilmour’s iconic guitar solos remain central, offering soaring moments of beauty, particularly on tracks like "The Piper’s Call" and "Dark and Velvet Nights." His collaboration with producer Charlie Andrew helps push him into fresh sonic territory without abandoning his roots. Overall, Luck and Strange is a deeply introspective and emotionally resonant work(louder)(ROCK AND BLUES MUSE)(The Spill Magazine).
