Pink Floyd: A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987)


This is the 13th album fro Pink Floyd. It's not bad, though Allmusic gives it a miserly two out of five stars. 

A David Gilmour solo album in all but name, heavily featuring the kind of atmospheric instrumental music and Gilmour guitar sound typical of the Floyd before the now-departed Roger Waters took over, but lacking Waters' unifying vision and lyrical ability. [source]
Well, The Final Cut was like a Roger Waters solo record, so this is fair enough. Perhaps the most amazing thing abut this record is the cover shot. This was before easy photo editing, so these are real beds! That's amazing and it was a lot of work.
