New Pink Floyd CD?

David Gilmour's wife Polly Samson leaks news on Twitter about new Pink Floyd album

 

 

 

Pink Floyd freaks everywhere are all a-twitter about the news that the British prog-rock giants will apparently release their first album in 20 years, titled  The Endless River , in three months.

Just six hours ago  David Gilmour ‘s wife, author Polly Samson–who cowrote the lyrics to most of the songs on Floyd’s 1994 album,  The Division Bell –tweeted this message:

Btw Pink Floyd album out in October is called “The Endless River”. Based on 1994 sessions is Rick Wright’s swansong and very beautiful.

Wright was the original keyboardist for Pink Floyd, who died of cancer in 2008 at the age of 65. Here’s what Gilmour had to say about him at the time of his passing:

 

No one can replace Richard Wright. He was my musical partner and my friend. In the welter of arguments about who or what was Pink Floyd, Rick’s enormous input was frequently forgotten. He was gentle, unassuming, and private, but his soulful voice and playing were vital, magical components of our most recognised Pink Floyd sound. I have never played with anyone quite like him. The blend of his and my voices and our musical telepathy reached their first major flowering in 1971 on ‘Echoes’. In my view all the greatest PF moments are the ones where he is in full flow. After all, without ‘Us and Them’ and ‘The Great Gig in the Sky’, both of which he wrote, what would ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ have been? Without his quiet touch, the album ‘Wish You Were Here’ would not quite have worked. In our middle years, for many reasons, he lost his way for a while; but in the early Nineties, with ‘The Division Bell’, his vitality, spark and humour returned to him, and then the audience reaction to his appearances on my tour in 2006 was hugely uplifting and it’s a mark of his modesty that those standing ovations came as a huge surprise to him (though not to the rest of us). Like Rick, I don’t find it easy to express my feelings in words, but I loved him and will miss him enormously.

Apparently, Pink Floyd’s management wasn’t thrilled with Samson’s news-breaking tweet. Nor were they impressed when vocalist Durga McBroom-Hudson–who performed with Floyd at their  1994 concert in Vancouver –posted this photo to her Facebook page, with the message: “YES. THERE IS A PINK FLOYD ALBUM COMING OUT. AND I’M ON IT. And there was much rejoicing.”

No tweets yet on whether  Roger Waters  is making a guest appearance on the new album.

So he probably isn’t.

Song, "When No One Listens" (been there done that?)

PeBailey, DcDeal, DCoonrod and KPeters have finally finished the song "When No One Listens". It is a progressive rock production with a theme we believe most of you will identify with. It reflects a journey through musical inspiration, the joy of creation, the anxiety of publication, the sometimes frustration of limited audience and finally back to musical inspiration. All pretty heady I know but .. well... we hope you like it!   Please listen and comment if you will and prove the song lyrics wrong .   When No One Listens

TrueVulgarians Thank You


By truevulgarian, 2014-07-01

My sister and I would like to thank Mixposure.com for our selection as Artist of the Month.  Being here at Mixposure has been a terrific experience and made possible our participation in multiple collaborations with some of the finest independent artists.  Our recent collab with David C. Deal on the song, "A Voice in the Distance" (SameSongTitleMadness entry) was a special opportunity to have someone with true musicianship and production talent expand upon one of our simple tunes, making something greater than we could have imagined.  David desires major credit for his contribution on that song.  We are absolutely grateful to have a place such as this to share our music and meet wonderful and like-minded people.  This award will serve to make us strive to create better songs in the future.  For us, the music is all about having fun and hopefully connecting with people.  That's truly been our only goal...

TrueVulgarians - Mixposure.com Artist of the Month

Just a big congrats to the TrueVulgarians for being the Mixposure.com Artist of the Month. This pair just knows how to create great music! Please check their music out and leave a review!

Bio:

The TrueVulgarians are a brother-sister duo hailing from just outside Cleveland, Ohio, having sung together for longer than they'd want to admit.  Songs range from the melancholy to the ridiculous with a story-telling vibe.  We're just a couple of amatuer musicians who have the need to create and perform without expectation beyond that.  All our tunes are written and arranged by (brother) William Thompson, who plays acoustic guitar and does the lead vocals.  (Sister) Jacki Grapentine provides back-up vocals and much needed moral support. We hope you enjoy our material as much as we have enjoyed making it available here on Mixposure for public consumption..
