Title: Don't you get it?
Review: I bought this album more than 16 years ago when it made its debut. It remains at the top of my play stack. So many believe that a David Gilmour album should be Pink Floyd (PF) set in disguise... for all of you I merely suggest you reread the album's title. The set within the album is a departure from PF. It is refreshingly simple and devoid of the layering of sound that weighs down some PF selections. The album is not locked into a conceptual theme, but rather explores a wide breadth of emotions. Perhaps most poignant is the quiet desperation of the final cut "Near the End". It speaks of faith, and belief in oneself, and the quiet strength it can take to face a day when there is little to look forward to. The sound is different from PF but is unmistakenly recognizable as David Gilmour. It is an about face and departure from the PF sound but it is a rewarding exploration of the different directions that can be taken. It may be almost 17 years old, but is ages incredibly well.
