David Gilmour

Before the live recording at Pompeii in 2017, David Gilmour had just released his album 'Rattle That Lock' in 2015, demonstrating a rich blend of his signature guitar work and introspective lyrics. This album marked a significant moment in Gilmour's solo career, showcasing his evolution beyond Pink Floyd while still holding true to his iconic sound. The Pompeii concert itself was a continuation of his solo tour, which ignited excitement among long-time fans craving his live performances. Interestingly, this venue holds a historical resonance as Gilmour, alongside Pink Floyd, famously recorded in the ancient ruins of Pompeii back in the '70s. So, returning to this iconic location created a beautiful bridge between his past and present, blending nostalgia with fresh artistry.
