Great surprise

Review Score: (8/10)
To be honest, I had not really given PF much thought or ear since Dark Side of the Moon, just figuring they were still in the same rut and because "classic rock" stations played their past hits beyond reason. Then a friend of mine was playing this cd in her car and I was surprised to hear it was these guys. As a guitar player I must admit that Gilmore's style and tone is beyond reproach and the songs are fresh and performed with an amazing feel. The production, of course, is immaculate. Dedicated Floyd fans may dissect the lyrics for hidden messages to former bandmates and so on but I find the overall effect to be applicable to everyone, no matter how relevant the band's history may be.
