Following a resounding win for David Gilmour in the first album round, will this second and final poll be another clear win for DG, or will it be a contested vote over absentee ballots?

Election projections aren't always reliable (that's an understatement), but I predict Richard Wright is going to win this election, based on the early exit polls with four votes cast already.  |

Gilmour, and the single best post-Wall song from any of the former Floyd's solo careers: Also, the songwriting dynamic between Pete Townsend and Gilmour was excellent and nicely non-Floyd on "All Lovers are Deranged" and "Love on the Air". ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

Why yes, it is. I tried another version above in quotes. See if that works ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

Btw, AF is a really good album. But I have to knock off 1/2 star for Blue Light. Come on now David. Really? ------------- This message was brought to you by a proud supporter of the Deep State. |

| For a whole album, Broken China. Though being reminded about Murder, that's a wonderful song indeed... I guess I like it more than any song on Broken China, actually (even better if it's live). |

| I'm voting again for Richard Wright, just a hair above David Gilmour. |

I love the underrated About Face, but Broken China is more consistent and the two songs with Sinhead O'Connor are really great. ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

The voting doesn't always go the way we predict. I was expecting David Gilmour to win this poll again, so it's nice to see Richard Wright currently leading the poll with thirteen votes.

you are the only one making predictions and usually getting it wrong. It's kinda hilarious.

Yes, I know. My predictions usually turn out to be predictably wrong most of the time. You might get a more accurate prediction by reading the tea leaves or looking to the stars.

What's new? I really don't mind who wins. I have both CD albums by David Gilmour and Richard Wright. At the moment, I'm veering towards Richard Wright, but another day I may do an About Face and vote for David Gilmour instead.

It's a great Rick Wright album that this should be enough.

Indeed it was a very personal album for Rick to make... and probably one of the best two PF solo albums. along with Roger's 'Amused to Death'. ------------- 'We're going to need a bigger swear jar.' |
