David Gilmour is sincere in explaining why Pink Floyd will not return


The guitarist and singer presented a series of justifications: from the absence of a member to the fact that already has money and fame enough

THE Pink Floyd It has not been an active band since 1994. There have been meetings in 2005 (for live aid, the last with the classic training, which had not existed since 1985), 2014 (only for the release of the Album de Lega The infinite river) and 2022 (for the charity single “Hey hey raises”), but without resuming the work in definitive mode.

Regardless of training, with or without the dissident Roger WatersThe group will never return. Is what it guarantees David Gilmourguitarist and singer who has led the band in recent years.

In an interview with Classic rockThe musician said that he lets the hibernation “all this Rosa Floyd for many, many years”. And the reason for a meeting not also discussed is the absence of the keyboardist Richard WrightHe died in 2008.

“It is impossible to go back without Rick. And I wouldn’t like it. It’s closed.”

In addition, Gilmour claims to be happy with his solo career. A new album, Luck and Strange, was released last September and the artist held a short series of shows to promote it.

“I am very happy and happy with the small team around me today. We have had many offers to take tours, but I am in this selfish position to have more than enough money and I had more than enough fame.”

Satisfied with the already closed rose floyd

David Gilmour was also punctual to clarify that he has no dissatisfaction with the work done with Pink Floyd. Perhaps this is why it is not willing to consider an expansion of this work.

“I don’t need these things these days. I didn’t want anyone to have the impression of not being a hundred percent happy and satisfied with the work I have done with Pink Floyd over the years, which were productive, satisfactory and happy, above all.

Pink Floyd has left the scene as one of the greatest bands in history. It is estimated to have sold over 250 million records throughout the planet. Two of their albums are among the most popular of all time: The dark side of the moon (1973) e The wall (1979), respectively with 45 and 30 million units sold.
