David Gilmour

In December 1991, David Gilmour took on a significant role as the musical director for Amnesty International's 30th Anniversary concert, performing at a time when he was already a well-established figure in rock music. Just before this event, he released his solo album 'About Face' in 1984, which showed off his impressive guitar work and vocal depth, giving listeners a taste of his artistic vision outside of Pink Floyd. The live performance features his signature sound, blending emotional depth with masterful guitar solos, showcasing his talent to new audiences. Interestingly, along with his own set, Gilmour shared the stage with Seal for a rendition of 'Hey Joe', adding a unique twist to the classics. This concert not only commemorated a major milestone for Amnesty International but also highlighted Gilmour's commitment to social issues through music.
