Which album was the best in the old year? IMO... It was …The Endless River. The last brilliant PF album. Things Left Unsaid - A lazy intro which includes a few quotes from Rick, David and Nick ending with a wide thud, and the start of the new album. From this point what we hear could be compared to the intro of Shine On You Crazy Diamond, but slightly more ambient with some Hammond organ near the end and a really nice Gilmour lead on an acoustic with an E-bow (a battery driven vibrating object which allows strings to endlessly sustain when its placed over them, literally an electronic bow), something which he revisits multiple times throughout this album. Its What We Do - Intro organ is very old school Floyd, the addition of a 70s style synth lead is obviously a homage to the WYWH era in general, but it really is its own thing as David is once again utilizing his more recent guitar technique and effects chain. Its one of the longer tracks at 6:17, and its a beautiful ride, one of my faves. Its pretty much everything I wished the post 87 Floyd would be, which to be fair at times it did touch upon, but only for brief moments. To get a dedicated instrumental song like this really makes me happy... this song is comparable to an audible wave washing over you. Ebb and Flow - Once again beautiful E-Bow guitar work with Ricks keys and a spectacular ending as Ricks keys and Davids sustained note meet in space and fade.
