High-end audiophile/home theatre publication Sound & Vision have just posted a fascinating interview with David Gilmour on their website. In the chat with David, he confirms something that we'd heard a rumour about - a surround sound mix of his new album, On An Island.
Elsewhere in the interview, David talks of the development process of his work, and how On An Island came together. The interview also mentions the forthcoming re-releases of his first two solo album - the eponymous debut in 1978, and 1984's About Face. It mentions that they will include bonus tracks, although we now understand this not to be the case. The full interview can be found at SoundAndVisionMag.com, but as yet, we're not sure if it also appears in the printed magazine itself. Our thanks to BD's Paul Powell Jr for his help with this story. The solo album re-releases can be ordered, with a discount, through the following special links: DAVID GILMOUR (1978): Amazon US/International, Canada, UK/Europe, France, or Germany.
