David Gilmour's On An Island - win the expanded edition! Print E-mail

Released this week worldwide (November 25th in Europe, November 26th in North America and the rest of the world) was the expanded version of David Gilmour's 2006 album, On An Island, and to celebrate, we've got a copy to give away to one lucky Brain Damage visitor!


On An Island album coverOn An Island is a collection of songs and instruments that had its genus in the critically acclaimed 2002 London Festival Hall concerts. Gilmour has stepped out of his super-group to discover he’s still at his peak – and he’s rightly pleased. ‘Its my best and most personal work,’ he said earlier this year. ‘Making it with my musician friends has been a positive experience on so many levels.’ And touring it this spring took him to a new level.

As many of you know, the ten tracks on the album, which has been produced by David Gilmour, Phil Manzanera and Chris Thomas, are:

  1. Castellorizon
  2. On An Island
  3. The Blue
  4. Take a Breath
  5. Red Sky At Night
  6. This Heaven
  7. Then I Close My Eyes
  8. Smile
  9. A Pocketful of Stones
  10. Where We Start
The album is now available, for a limited time, with a bonus DVD – a must have for fans! Now you can own David’s electrifying live AOL Sessions performance including:
  1. On An Island
  2. This Heaven
  3. Smile
  4. Take A Breath
  5. High Hopes
  6. Comfortably Numb
Plus, included on the DVD is "Astronomy Domine" from the Channel 4 TV Abbey Road sessions, in August 2006, and “Take A Breath” from London's Royal Albert Hall, a taster of the live DVD coming in 2007.

Thanks to our friends over at Electric Artists, we have a copy of this great CD/DVD set to give away. You have to answer the following question correctly:

  • David took his 2006 On An Island tour to many places, but where did he perform the final full concert?
