Pink Floyd - A Momentary Lapse Of Reason (CD 1987)

I love Roger Waters. I also love David Gilmore. This album is very much David Gilmore's baby and is very reminiscient of some of his solo work. There is a gentler, less angst-ridden vibe to the songs; not that they are lacking in passion or even anger, on occasion. That Waters on-the-edge feeling is absent.
This is a beautiful album, which I would recommend to anyone. It is still very much Pink Floyd but it is a long way removed from works such as The Dark Side and The Wall. Depending on your taste, this may be a pro or a con!

One of the best floyd albums...we all love dark side , yet this album just takes you all over the place !!

This album was a welcome return to form for Pink Floyd after the rather mundane Final Cut. One is tempted to think that they only made this recording so that the previous one would not be remembered as their last. However, A Momentary Lapse of Reason proves beyond any doubt that there was more to Floyd than the writing of Roger Waters. Excellent stuff.

After Roger Waters decided to upship,Many fans must have thought it would spell the death throws of Pink Floyd.
Musicaly, the creative heartbeat was still intact and that coupled with a strong personal drive from David Gilmour to make the latest chapter work well,resulted in a decent Floyd album.
All the tracks are well crafted and as a total piece, traditional Floyd`its will not be dissapointed.
It does however lack somewhat lyrically,but Mr Waters could never be replaced totally and in this instance,it shows.
A few years after this release, Roger Waters gave us "Amused To Death". A true masterpiece of conceptual prog rock,which if had been released under the Pink Floyd banner would have sold millions.
This album highlighted what was missing from "A Momentary Lapse Of Reason".
That said, AMLOR is still a very good album and is up there with their best work.

It's a masterpiece containing especially two famous songs: " Learning to fly " and the very beautiful " On the turning away " with an a solo of David Gilmour. I love it very much.

I love all pink floyds music i've liked this band for thirty years.
I decided to buy it because of the price and to add to my colection,and i'm glad i did it's an excellent item.

It's Pink Floyd, every note arranged and played with feeling. Turn yer stero up loud and let the neighbours appreciate the sound of Pink Floyd!!!
