Just published is the latest issue (September 2025, issue 574) of the UK's Record Collector magazine, which as you might guess from the eye-catching cover, has a whopping sixteen page article featuring an interview with David Gilmour looking back at key live performances over the years, in the run up to the cinema screenings and release of his new live album and film, Live At Circus Maximus, Rome/The Luck And Strange Concerts.

The magazine, in UK stores now and selected stores internationally, and available to purchase online worldwide through this link, often includes material of interest to Floyd fans and on occasion, there's major coverage within its pages. This new issue is a great example of that.

The article begins with David ruminating over recent years, and how he went from the big Pink Floyd shows to tentatively playing the low-key Royal Festival Hall show in 2001, returning in 2002 at the same venue, playing three shows followed by a further two in Paris. Further sporadic gigs in 2004 lead to On An Island being written, recorded, and toured in 2006. Rattle That Lock followed in 2015, then a further nine years later, last year's Luck And Strange.

Gilmour's recollections of the chosen concerts are fascinating, and at times, illuminating, with details previously untold. They give background to musicians picked for his solo works, things that happened (such as electrocution in London) and his feelings and memories of such things.

Finally, he reveals that he's planning on working on another album before too long, and not leaving it another nine years as with Rattle That Lock and Luck And Strange.

Elsewhere in the magazine - and in addition to the sixteen pages focused on David Gilmour - is coverage of artists as diverse as Bryan Adams, John Fogerty, Bill Haley, Talking Heads and Dr Feelgood, amongst others.
