DAVID GILMOUR "david gilmour" cd, 1978

solo career stats:
studio albums........4
singles..................8

this album.............#17 UK...#29 US
singles:
"theres no way out of here"...no chart action

Dave's first solo set....
I have this one obviously, "about face" which I haven't heard yet, and "rattle that lock" which I love immensely.
three instrumentals on this one and I like two and love one of them...
that Pink Floyd sound is all over this one...
I think I prefer him over Waters now as a writer and a vocalist...
and there was never any denying his skills on his axe...
all up a very good album, much better than I thought it would be...

Today it's Dave Sturt's 'Dreams and Absurdities' - great album if you are into the eclectic.

Next up - Kate Bush - Lionheart - not totally mad about KB but I like this album.

from the cd room



18th album
#44 here but #2 in the UK
I wasn't expecting much from this
but it was surprisingly good
couple of covers that pass, Oasis and Graham Parker, but I'll take the originals
this was 1 album before Rod went off on his Songbook series
that move paid off for him but not for me

fav

sorry, this should have been before the last one
this is his 17th
#35 here and #4 in the UK
nice covers of Dylan's Sweetheart Like You and Sam Cooke's Soothe Me
another good album here
it was the first one I had bought since 1980's Foolish Behavior
I may have missed 6 good albums

from the vinyl shed



his 6th album
#13 here and his first platinum
on the strength of Cracklin' Rosie, his first #1 single
that song is unlike the rest of the album which has an African feel

Back to your Rod Stewart post that you missed six albums....

Of those six I have the following in my collection on either vinyl/cassette or cd

Tonight I'm Yours......very good

Body Wishes............good

Camouflage.............passable

Vagabond Heart.......very good

[CRAZY-HORSE]

On "tonight I'm yours" he does a superb cover of "just like a woman"

On camouflage he has a good cover of "some guys have all the luck"

There's probably covers on the others also but I cant recall off the top of my head.
