For Pink Floyd fans only (rest ignore this update). Downloaded Endless River from iTunes and completed listening to all tracks twice now. the album is a must buy in my POV. It completes the post-Syd sound circle which started from Echoes, through Any Colour You like, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, took a turn in Terminal Frost and which got better in Marooned. I would give weights to describe the tracks as follows: Marooned (50%) + Shine On (30%) + Echoes (20%) Wright shines through this & even outshines Gilmour. This might be the first and only Pink Floyd album where Wright can be termed as the leader of the band. This is not surprising as the tracks are instrumentals (Wrights keyboards are always strong in all PinkFloyd instrumentals) and many were taken from Division Bell sessions where Wright made a strong comeback. This is officially Gilmour/Masons tribute to Richard Wright (who never got his due from Waters) just like Wish You... was Waters tribute to Syd Barrett . The stand out track is of course Anisina which is so damn good that it alone makes the album price worth it many times over.
