Glorious mornings. The snow didn't last. The sun's back out again and everything is good with the world.

Sunday mornings have become a relaxing time. Usually because I'm running backups on the computer, reading the Sunday paper and listening to whatever takes my fancy. Fortunately David Gilmour has a new album and it's become one of those perfect Sunday morning albums.

On An Island is a damn good album. It gets its critics because it "sounds too much like a Pink Floyd album". That's not in any way surprising considering David Gilmour was one quarter of Pink Floyd. It has moments that sound very Floyd, a general mix of Animals, Dark Side Of The Moon, Momentary Lapse Of Reason and The Division Bell. It's a beautiful album. Peaceful and relaxing.
