David Gilmour, the legendary guitarist of Pink Floyd, has made a bold statement about his upcoming solo album, Luck And Strange. In a recent interview, Gilmour claimed that his new work surpasses even the iconic Dark Side Of The Moon.
Known for his ethereal guitar work and soulful vocals, Gilmour is undoubtedly a musical titan. His contributions to Pink Floyd are immeasurable, and his solo career has garnered critical acclaim. However, equaling, let alone surpassing, the impact of Dark Side Of The Moon is a monumental task.
With such a high bar set by his own words, the anticipation for Luck And Strange has reached fever pitch amongst Pink Floyd and classic rock fans alike. Will Gilmour deliver on his ambitious promise?

Gilmour has revealed exciting news about his upcoming projects. The Pink Floyd legend shared in an interview with Prog Magazine that he plans to immediately start working on a follow-up album to his soon-to-be-released Luck And Strange.
Gilmour expressed his enthusiasm for collaborating with the same team again, stating, “Our plan is just to get this one out and run it and then do another one straight away. I will be working with all these people again.”
Scheduled for release on September 6th, Luck And Strange is now available for pre-order and pre-save. The album, recorded over five months in Brighton and London, has been a collaborative effort with Gilmour’s wife, Polly Sampson, who documented the studio sessions on her Instagram.
