David Gilmour - Until We Sleep Live in Concert 1984 at Hammersmith Odeon
In April 1984, during his 'About Face' tour, David Gilmour delivered a powerful performance at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, which included the track 'Until We Sleep.' This concert came just after the release of his second solo album, 'About Face,' which dropped that same year. The album showcased Gilmour's unique ability to blend rock and introspective lyrics, a hallmark of his work post-Pink Floyd. Interestingly, 'About Face' reflects Gilmour's journey as a solo artist, stepping out from the monumental shadow of Pink Floyd while still retaining his signature guitar sound. The live recording captures the essence of Gilmour’s transition, making it a crucial moment in his career as he embraced both his past and future directions in music.
