I know there a few PK/DG fans on this forum.....so I thought I’d ask this question here.
I’m looking for a DG release that’s David Gilmour - The CBS Promo’s
I’ve seen some mention of the set and below are some links talking about it. It’s available as a video with PCM stereo as well as lossless audio
The one link is for a site to grab the audio.....but the links are dead.
So, if anyone can point me in the right direction....I’d appreciate it 👍🏻
Here are the links:

Yup....that’s it. I saw that and confirmed that a DVD exists with PCM audio, so lossless audio should be available, which at minimum on a bootleg label it is. Also, it looks like a rare official release of the audio is/was available.
So, I’m try to get the lossless audio.....but if the DVD with PCM audio is the only thing around, I can rip that audio just as easily.
So if anybody knows where I can grab it.....I’d appreciate it
Thx again!

Oh yes! What on earth is this supposed to mean? Some 70's flashback? David Copperfield? Also, what's that background? Fur? Waterfalls?

The first song of The Piper's Call - very nice but the last minute and 30 nothing happens. I was expecting a guitar solo :)

I was an extremely idiot to miss DG's gig in Oberhausen a few years ago.
let's see where he's gonna play this tour (last one ? )

He is 78. This will be the last one. He does not tour that much. Last tour was 8 years ago and before that almost 10 years. I expect some UK dates (RAH) and probably USA this year. Next year Europe UK and perhaps a few more in the States....

The video of the first single. Good old Steve Gadd on drums!

Could be his last tour, but he said in the Uncut interview that he will record a new album right after he finishes the tour.
-
6 dates at the RAH in oktober. Tickets go on sale this friday....i'm almost sure it will sell out fast...
-
We may get some rarities on tour, looks like he wants to give less focus to the 1970's tracks, maybe he has been looking at Nick Mason and thought he would like to revisit some earlier stuff, maybe some stuff from More, that would be nice, maybe some songs from his 1st and 2nd solo albums.
-
There was some info he was looking at some songs from the last PF albums without RW. Still hope he has some room in the set for a 5 or 6 classic PF songs.
-
The 6 concerts at the RAH are sold out. I hope there will be some info on more concerts in Europe soon.

We were 3 of us, each one trying to get any ticket in the RAH, we could get UK presales code, but none of us could get a single ticket in the end, neither in the presales nor in the general sales. The platform just couldn't handle such a load...
I'll take anything, really. Any ticket, any day, any price (except the shameful 4000€ speculative prices from Viagogo).
Does anybody has spare tickets to resale? I'm desperate.

US dates :
Tuesday, Oct 29 - Hollywood Bowl
Wednesday, Oct 30 - Hollywood Bowl
Monday, Nov 4 - MSG
Tuesday, Nov 5 - MSG
"These will be the only North American cities"

Perhaps he will come back in 2025? On his last tour he did about 15 concerts late 2015 and came back in 16 to do about 35 concerts...

David Gilmour is 78 years old.
We all said it would be great if MK did a small run of show(s) in the same location(s). Can't really complain when Gilmour does exactly that.
-
But David Gilmour is way more popular isn't it ?

I know someone who has tickets available for ROME, 2 good seats for Sept 27, if anyone interested send me a private message with your mail and I would put you in contact.

The deluxe releases of this album will have a book of photographs Polly Sampson took while making the album, should be some shots of British Grove Road Studios.

and is hellishly expensive.
already got all other formats pre-ordered. that will do..

His ticket prices are also a joke. The ones I found were upwards of £3000. I was even willing to pay for flights and acommodation in London to see him, but not with these ticket prices.

That ticket price is a resale for sure or a VIP package, at the presale the higher was between 200-300 pounds for arena and stalls tickets.
Seems that is the usual nowadays, unfortunately.
-
David has been posting short video's on YouTube talking about his guitars and recording the new album, and it looks like all the video's are from British Grove Road Studios.

also, the price of the expensive box has been dropped and people that peordered got an email "from" david informing them 50€ would be refunded to them

And he never got a bad day at BG ;)

Really? It's a nice album but I liked the previous two more.

I've been listening to this album most of the weekend and I really like it a lot.
If I had to choose my favourite song it would be "Scattered". I especially like the piano, played by Rob Gentry halfway through the song, which David describes as "off the wall" in the above video. ;D It reminds me very much of the first few minutes of the 2nd Movement of Rachmaninov's PC #3 which sounds a bit like a cat running over the keyboard, but in a nice way, of course! :)
-
Hmmm, i don't know if i liked this new Gilmour album.
For me, it has too many skippers.
And have that BG vibe that i don't like.
For me, the definitive DG album is On An Island.
THAT, my friends, is an album with capital A.
To me, Rattle That Lock has the same "formula" from his antecessor. In my opinion, a very weak album.
Most of my heroes, again, in my opinion, haven't been releasing albums that captives me.
Maybe I started to be more grumpy that I usualy am.
-
Could you explain what exactly you mean with "BG vibes"?

I have the same request :)

BG, like Bee Gees?
;D

Had a first listen now through the whole album. I really like it. Classic Gilmour, but with a slightly different, fresher sound. No particular favorites at the moment, but his guitar playing is spectacular. So is his guitar tone. My oh my. The album is so punchy. Mark's ODR is so wimpy-sounding in comparison. The long jam at the end, though, felt unnecessary. Total filler which doesn't add anything, but rather distracts.
-
Good point about 'Luck and Strange' is that the guitars were recorded at Astoria.
I like Polly's lyrics. However, i tend to listen almost the same melodys intentions on every song.
When the dynamics went down, to me, is the 'same song'.
It was an artistc decision? I dunno.
Works for me? No.
DG's team seems to worked VERY HARD to make those 'flat sounding' drums, bass and some vocals recorded at British Grove.
Well, the album is not bad. It's just the opposite.
However, like MK's albums, they can be differents each other.
However, sound as the same.

dayum,..still waiting for my copies to arrive...
-
About 3 weeks before he goes on tour. I wonder what his setlist wil look like......
-
the recent rehearsal video should give you an idea?
-
A great album. I really like the album the guitarsolo in “Scattered” is really brilliant
-
I really like this album, I have only heard it once so far, but, there are some good songs, the opening instrumental has lovely piano. A highlight for me is the voice of Romany Gilmour. It may well be one of his best solo albums, it would have been interesting to hear how different it would have sounded had Guy produced it. I didn't hear any songs I didn't like.

Oh, God, no. With all respect to Guy and his many talents, but he's just too smooth and pop oriented. DG's new album sounds perfect.

Did you listened to Vicente Amigo's "Tierra" produced by Guy Fletcher with MK's musicians? Take a listen to it and we talk again 😜

Well, the fact Guy talked to David about producing them album means that David likes what Guy does.

So in rehearsels you sing bad or out of tune??

dude, is he playing to an audience? or is he trying to set up the setlist, the arrangements, the lights etc..? this is only a guidance vocal. how many times have you heard Gilmour sing badly at an actual show, pls do tell. (contrary to that megalomaniac bass player)
-
Never sounded bad indeed. Given that his last tour was 8 years ago... But okay no problem..... i just thought his voice was not in the best shape.... That's all......

I had exactly the same problem, you could select seats then go to checkout and they were unavailable. Crap system as you then had to remove them from the basket to choose different seats. Never known a system like it.

listening to the friday night rec. currently and can only confirm
one question though, why was the audience SOOOOO far away from the actual stage?
-
Hi,
They removed 3 stalls areas (front and 2 sides). The reason is that they had LOTS of monitors, mixers, cameras and equipment between the stage and the audience. They were quite massive - also 4+ rows for the available stall area were blocked.
Beside the fact that there was no running to the stage on encore, there wasn't any real difference
-
Romany's voice is incredible, she is such a revelation. I am excited that he played Marooned, I bet that sounded amazing.
-
now listening to the second rehearsal. i think it went even better.
-
having never seen DG before I was blown away. Can’t believe he is 78. He played many of my favourite PF songs. The new stuff was fantastic as well.
-
so glad to hear that. i find that both MK and DG are so "compatible" in their playing, that it makes TOTAL sense being an absolute fan of both.
seen him 2 times to date (roger 2 times, Nick 3 times and floyd once - i am a gilmour boy, clearly not a roger boy)
-
I would love to see DG live, but I missed the presale of the tickets and got stuck with tickets at 3500$. Plus travel and accommodation, we're talking 5000$ for a concert. A bit too much for me

With these prices I don't mind if he spends the next years playing live with non stop, not too much people can afford to pay 150 euros for crap tickets and more than 300 for the best seats.

Ticket prices are ridiculous these days. In a way I'm pleased that MK stopped touring, would have really annoyed me if he would have gone down the dynamic pricing route.
Fortunately the artists I like seem to be sensible. Got tickets for Sturgill Simpson today, £37 each (£45 after all the service charge nonsense).

I’ll let you know, I’ve got tickets to see him at Hammersmith Odeon (Alchemy). I love a bit of country. My favourite country artist Hayes Carll has a new album coming out with a band called The Heathens. The 2 songs Ive heard are great.

I think you’ll enjoy it. He’s not strictly country. I don’t know how I’d describe him. Lots of different styles, a bit like MK (but not anything like MK :) )

I've booked tickets for Transatlantic Sessions for £39.75 and also for John McCusker, Mike McGoldrick and John Doyle for £21.50, both next February. :)
Oh wow, that sounds exciting - enjoy!

he was never the speedy notes trasher. he IS the feels man. and still is imho. the nights are progressively getting better. Greenies left and right, sure, but the man is 78 after all. i would LOVE mk still playing today, even if it was greenies only.
most of what i have seen/heard is amazing. are there mistakes, sure, but i do not want a "clean" performance.

Mk went to at least one Gilmour show. i know coz Gary Kemp said he met him there and sat next to him, and they chatted a bit
for the details, go here, beginning of the Fatboy Slim episode

I know Mark and David are friends, but, I just can't imagine Mark listening to Pink Floyd, I wonder what his favourite album would be?
-
I'm quite sure that Mark loves the Wish you were album, his own LOG album is quite similar in structure: one epic prog piece (TR/Shine On), One melancholic balad (the title tracks), and bitter songs about the industry / life in general (WTTM / ID, Have a cigar / It never rains).
I also imagine Mark liking the classic DSOTM. Guy has expressed love for the album.
I don't imagine Mark being that a fan of Animals of the Wall, this is a bit politcally too far-off for him, but I'm quite sure he loves Comfortably Numb, with the best guitar solo of all times !
I can also imagine David, and also Roger (as an anti-capitalist and anti-war guy), admiring the songwriting of TR and BIA.
Mark and David are different in style, but they have a lot in common: same generation, same consensual opinions and discrete approach, each of them having a very distinctive and unique guitar sound, and focused on quality recording.
Both of them have openly expressed huge respect for each other. A duet would be fantastic !
-
He doesn't miss playing live AT ALL...
Seems he's not recording either as Guy is busy with things not related to MK new music...
-
I think Mark also likes the albums A Momentary Lapse Of Reason and The Division Bell.

I can't really imagine him doing nothing at all musically for a whole year because it's not in his nature.
Okay he may be slow - which he claims himself to be - but his passion for writing and recording songs won't stop. At least I hope so!
-
Of course! New songs are definitely born in his head. But I wouldn't be surprised if he entered the studio next year. The last session really was rich

To find David Gilmour's *The CBS Promos* (1978) release, you might need to explore dedicated collector forums or Pink Floyd fan communities, as this promo is rare and typically circulated among enthusiasts. The links you've shared point to sites that might have had the content in the past, but if those links are dead, here are a few suggestions:
1. **Discogs**: Keep checking listings on Discogs for updates, as this platform often has new listings from sellers specializing in rare music memorabilia.
2. **Guitars101**: Occasionally, collectors on Guitars101 reshare links or provide new ones in the comments. Checking back periodically or posting your own inquiry could help.
3. **Fan Forums**: Pink Floyd-centric communities or music trading groups often have members who archive rare material and might be able to provide direction on where to locate the promos.
In the meantime, consider joining a Pink Floyd fan group or collector’s network where this type of material is traded among dedicated fans. :) (https://poradniczek.eu/)

Yes, but Sturgill is better than the pensioner. :)
I’ll let you know, I’ve got tickets to see him at Hammersmith Odeon (Alchemy). I love a bit of country. My favourite country artist Hayes Carll has a new album coming out with a band called The Heathens. The 2 songs Ive heard are great.
Hi Dusty
Went to the legendary Alchemy Hammersmith Odeon tonight to see Sturgill Simpson. Totally blown away, what a band. Thanks for the recommendation.

David Gilmour / Live at the Circus Maximus and The Luck and Strange Concerts - superdeluxeedition.com (https://superdeluxeedition.com/news/david-gilmour-live-at-the-circus-maximus-and-the-luck-and-strange-concerts/)
David Gilmour will release a concert film and live album of his 2024 Luck and Strange tour, on 17 October 2025, via Sony.
Live at the Circus Maximus is the concert film which runs for 142 minutes and is available either as a 2xblu-ray or 3xDVD set. The blu-rays features a Dolby Atmos soundtrack alongside 5.1 and 96/24 audio.
The live album is called The Luck and Strange Concerts and features audio recorded at selected shows from the tour and blends solo tracks from David’s most recent album as well as classic Pink Floyd anthems such as ‘Sorrow’, ‘High Hopes’, ‘Breathe (In The Air)’, ‘Time’, ‘Wish You Were Here’, and ‘Comfortably Numb’.
This is available as a 4LP vinyl box set, on 2CD. Note, that the audio for this live album is also available in the 2xblu-ray with Atmos, 5.1 and 96/24 stereo (just like the concert film). Both video formats also offer video of rehearsals, documentaries and promo videos.
Perhaps inevitably, there’s a massive super deluxe edition box set (direct-to-consumer only) which brings together ALL of the above formats and adds a 120-page book of photos by Polly Samson taken on the tour. This comes in a “custom made” box. Yours for £336!

Doing a parallel, David released, I believe, 5 solo albums instead of Mark that released 10 solo albums not counting his soundtracks + NHB.
2 of 5 DG's albums he barely performed live. His first one is much more a experiment, and the About Face album kind of filled a gap during the Pink Floyd's dispute by Roger/David.
David never played those material after 1985 (with only one exception)
Mark was/is a active musician that released, in average, an album/tour on every 2 years (I know, there are exceptions).
Post 2006 David's releases are way better than Mark's. Every album was followed by a live DVD ("On An Island" tour have 2 DVDs) plus easter eggs, interviews and a lot of interesting stuff.
However, note that the gap between DG's releases: 2006, 2015, 2024 (1978 and 1984 doesn't count). So, every tour was an EVENT. Every tour was a celebration and every "albun/tour" was prepared to have a LOT of material.
When Mark started his solo career, after a 4 years gap, he released a epk, VHS and a CD.
During the release of STP, there was a great documentary about MK (never released officially) + the album.
I cannot affirm if Ed was THE guy with an eye (aka inteligence) for it because, since PC start to manage him, only standard material was released.
What I am trying to tell is that, IF Mark had very few solo albums, maybe his released could be more "Gilmorized".
In my opinion, I prefer more albums than live records.
However, MK solo releases could be better.

I really like David Gilmour, but his work style can be off-putting to even the most loyal fans. David Gilmour once said that Pink Floyd was the laziest band in the world. David Gilmour could say the same about himself ;) I'm very glad that Mark has a different style and approach to his work. :)

I couldn't disagree more. "Luck and STRANGE" is a short but brillant album. Unlike Mark with ODR, David dared to move out of his comfort zone, and to go into new territories, the albums sounds almost like opera music at times. A song like "scattered" is really Pink Floyd-grade. "Sings" is very touching, especially live with Romany. "Between 2 points" is really original. "Dark and velvet nights" is just... Wow. Quite gothic! The title track and "Piper's call" are quite brillant. I attended 7 shows last year, 2 in Rome and the 5 NYC ones. I have probably seen his last concert, just like I saw MK's last concert at the same place (MSG). These shows were nothing short of stunning, even if Dave's voice didn't age too well...

Funnily, I think that Gilmour and Knopfler carrers are quite similar after their bands.
And sometimes I like more Gilmour's approach. He never stopped being the guitar hero everyone fell in love with.

Lazy because he records so rarely.

Ah, ok. Yeah, 2006, 2015, 2024, every 9 years... And the he tours very few dates, prices go absolutely crazy. I agree on this one... He said that this time he wouldn't take 9 years, that he will go into the studio quickly, but I seriously doubt it. This is the end... Gilmour will soon be 80, Waters is 82, I don't believe they can tour again... Mk has already quitted... Only Clapton is over 80 and still plays like in the 60s....

Polly Samson wrote on Instagram that David is often in the studio.
PS. This is news from March this year.

Past 70 years old, each individual really go ageing his own way.
Albert Lee is still touring past 80.

I think it's pointless comparing these type of artists ages, we, as human's all age differently, look at Phil Collins :( I think the person how has aged the best is Ringo Starr.

I got to see MK live in 96. 97, 98, 01, 02, 05, 06, 07, 08, 10, 11, 12, 15 and 19. And I personally think the solo records are consistently excellent, with a few duff tracks. We also got piles of direct live downloads. The only thing we really missed out on was a high quality solo live dvd/blu-ray.
