David Gilmour Fender Stratocaster released
O sabre do Gilmour...
Hoje foi lançada esta maravilha...
"David Gilmour fans, rejoice. In September, Fender will release a guitar based on the legendary Pink Floyd member's classic black Stratocaster. Sadly, Fender is offering no guarantee that the instrument's purchase will get you any closer to playing like Gilmour." (é pena....)

Já nas bancas
"Today is of course the UK release of the Live In Gdańsk album, of which no more need be said, other than it features Richard at his absolute best, playing and singing at the top of his form, and obviously loving every minute of it."
Acho que vai ser necessário organizar um retiro para apreciar todo o esplendor desta obra... Para o "Rebember that Night" funcionou bem ;)

A PIOR DAS EFEMÉRIDES
Parece que me cabe a triste tarefa de escrever isto: Senhoras e senhores, uma pessoa a quem posso chamar de amigo morreu esta noite. Senhoras e senhores, o que aconteceu foi que, não é bem um amigo, é uma pessoa que nos ultimos três anos conviveu comigo diariamente "inciting and inviting me to rise", padecia secretamente de cancro e a merda da doença ganhou. Alguém teve o cuidado de me avisar com cautela, mas estas merdas atropelam, não há eufemismos nem gloriosas prosas da sua gloriosa vida que amorteçam uma coisa destas. Senhoras e senhores, como é que alguém imortal pode morrer?! É que nunca me podia ter passado pela cabeça que ele podia morrer! Morrer e pronto, acabou-se. Acabou-se reunião, acabou-se a expectativa de o ver. Acabou-se o desejo de o ouvir varrer as brancas antes do "rabbit run". Acabou-se! Afinal era mentira "no one makes me close my eyes".
Este blogue deve-lhe o nome e em grande parte (em quarta parte) a alma, mas verdadeiramente hoje, mais do que poderá ter feito alguma vez no passado, ou fará alguma vez no futuro, faz o devido sentido. No meu imaginário há um "great gig in the sky", e eu sinto-me chocado por, mais uma vez, não poder participar dele.
Um outro grande amigo junta-se a nós:
"No one can replace Richard Wright. He was my musical partner and my friend.
In the welter of arguments about who or what was Pink Floyd, Rick's enormous input was frequently forgotten.
He was gentle, unassuming and private but his soulful voice and playing were vital, magical components of our most recognised Pink Floyd sound.
I have never played with anyone quite like him. The blend of his and my voices and our musical telepathy reached their first major flowering in 1971 on 'Echoes'. In my view all the greatest PF moments are the ones where he is in full flow. After all, without 'Us and Them' and 'The Great Gig In The Sky', both of which he wrote, what would 'The Dark Side Of The Moon' have been? Without his quiet touch the Album 'Wish You Were Here' would not quite have worked.
In our middle years, for many reasons he lost his way for a while, but in the early Nineties, with 'The Division Bell', his vitality, spark and humour returned to him and then the audience reaction to his appearances on my tour in 2006 was hugely uplifting and it's a mark of his modesty that those standing ovations came as a huge surprise to him, (though not to the rest of us).
Like Rick, I don't find it easy to express my feelings in words, but I loved him and will miss him enormously.

"You hide somewhere, you die somewhere" but "then i will bring you back."
Está prometido.
A triste tarefa está cumprida.
