A MOMENTARY LAPSE OF REASON

Here is the album which I occasionally forget when thinking of Pink Floyd's discography. Perhaps it is related to me being not a big fan of post Waters era, but also mainly this is a musically weak album. None of Gilmour's touchy solos does it for me; they may be good, but Floyd's music lost its spark. The amazing four is not together and the product is nothing more than a more or less pointless guitar driven album. Each time I play this album, I have to wait until the last track "Sorrow" to finally encounter something worth hearing. This one saves the album a little.

Perhaps the best thing about the album is Storm Thorgerson's artwork. But the music inside doesn't live up to it, so don't expect to high. Collectors and fans only.
