On an Island- David Gilmour
1 of 1 found this helpful I bought On an Island- David Gilmour after reviewing several selections, and highly recommend it. It gives me permission to relax, and inhale for a while.
Gilmour's guitar is clean and satisfying. His vocals are mellow, and as I listen I'm compelled to pay attention to details such as tasty instrumental bits, great harmonies, and interesting lyrics. This works. Every track is good, too. "This Heaven" is my personal favorite right now because it's sassy. The guitar riff stays with me long after I stop the CD. I listen to On an Island while driving to and from work, and let it take me away for a few minutes. "So break the bread, and pour the wine. I need no blessings, but I'm counting mine." Outstanding. Buy a copy for your mom, sister, and brother. Dedicate "Smile" to them. It's infinitely listenable, and well done. Thank you, FairBecca
