My advise, go for the live album, that one is so much better. More energy, better guitar solos, and Rick Wright is part of the band through the whole show (instead of just one or two songs as in the studio album), which actually makes the performance almost a Pink Floyd show. Oh yeah, and you get a nice collection of Pink Floyd songs, perhaps the most stunning of which is "Echoes". However, you must know there are not female backing vocals on this one, so some of the Floyd songs may sound a bit different because of that.

Dave you can't go wrong with On An Island if you're a Gilmour fan and I know you are Big smile
When the melodies are starting to sink in, the album is no less than stunning.

They should do a joint tour.  Each plays a 90 min set and then they join together for a 60 min PF set.  They could alternate who pays first and second each night.   They each have so much material they could have and A & B set lists with and A & B PF set list too.  See them on back to back nights and get different shows

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I just read something on facebook about Graham Nash having said in a recent interview that he and Crosby are recording vocals for Gilmour's new album (and as I understood the note it's recent news, they are not talking about "On an Island" one from over 6 years ago). Anyone knows anything else about that.
