Yes, there's a lot of the blues in my playing.

The old ways still apply. You can still send tapes to record companies, and there are record companies, you know, there are one or two of the record companies do declare proudly that they listen to every single one that comes.

Personally, I'm not very keen on the visualization of absolutely everything.
David Gilmour
Image
I am working on current material, a new album, and that is all still my main motivation of going out and working. We haven't gotten rid of all the new stuff in favor of the old.

For me, gradually over the years, you refined your tastes in the way you do things and it becomes maybe less experimental.
David Gilmour
Image
I tend to fly old airplanes and old sort of things that are nearly about as old as me. Biplanes and stuff like that.

People being incredibly rude and playing music incredibly badly and being incredibly obnoxious has always been a teenage sort of thing.

Obviously, they're all a gang of idiots. But, you know... live and let live.

I am a lover of all sorts of different music. I love blues and every piece of music that I have listened to has become an influence.
David Gilmour

My technique is laughable at times. I have developed a style of my own, I suppose, which creeps around. I don't have to have too much technique for it. I've developed the parts of my technique that are useful to me. I'll never be a very fast guitar player. I don't really know what to say about my style. There's always a melodic intent in there.

David Gilmour

Well, I am David Gilmour, the voice and guitar of Pink Floyd. I have been since I was 21.
David Gilmour
Image
I think I'm still trying to be experimental on everything I ever do, but it's not as obviously way-out and experimental as what we were.
David Gilmour
Image
If people would like to come to my concerts I'd love them to come. And if they like the music that I make, I love that too. But I do not make music for other people. I make it to please myself.
David Gilmour
Image
I haven't felt compelled to go back in the studio and do anything serious. I have a little sort of home studio thing which I potter about in occasionally.
David Gilmour
Image
It's not whether God plays dice it's how God plays dice.
David Gilmour
Image
I'm English and I am British. I don't know if I feel part of a music scene. Musically, I have as many feelings and affinity with Americans or Canadians, or all sorts of people as I do with English people.
David Gilmour
Image
I listen to classical music at home probably more than pop music.

You don't want to believe everything you hear.

It's a very tempting thing to try and relive your glory days when you get a little older and you worry that people have forgotten all about you.
