Pink Floyd: A Momentary Lapse of Reason
"A Momentary Lapse of Reason is the thirteenth studio album by the English progressive rock group Pink Floyd. It was released in the UK and US in September 1987. Its creation followed guitarist David Gilmour's decision to include new material, recorded for his third solo album, on a new Pink Floyd album. Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason and keyboardist Richard Wright
were also brought on board for the project. Although for legal reasons
Wright could not be re-admitted to the band ... the two helped
Gilmour craft what became the first Pink Floyd album since the departure
of lyricist and bass guitarist Roger Waters in December 1985. The album was recorded primarily on Gilmour's converted houseboat, Astoria. ... Unlike many of
Pink Floyd's studio albums, A Momentary Lapse of Reason has no central theme and is instead a collection of rock songs written mostly by Gilmour and musician Anthony Moore. Although it received mixed reviews and was derided by Waters, with
the help of an enormously successful world tour it easily out-sold their
previous album The Final Cut. It has since been certified quadruple platinum in the US" (Wikipedia).
