recently, on 14th December), concerning David Gilmour taking part in a special concert held at London's legendary Abbey Road Studios, to record a a celebration of 50 years of rock'n'roll.
David's part of the show on 3rd December was a performance of "Don't" accompanied by Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings. The concert, helmed by Scotty Moore, guitarist for Elvis Presley for the recording of That's Alright, Mama, which has been taken as the official starting point of rock'n'roll in 1954, included Ringo Starr (The Beatles), Keith Richards, Ron Wood and Bill Wyman (the Rolling Stones), Mark Knopfler, and the aforementioned Mr Gilmour. The show was recorded in high definition for release on DVD this year, and we have just received full details of this!
