In a new magazine special, available from Spanish stores and online through this link, This Is Rock take a look at "how David Gilmour revived Pink Floyd after the departure of Roger Waters. Through perseverance and a personal challenge, his vision opened the doors to a new success".
Their description of the magazine continues: "Claiming the figure and importance of someone like David Gilmour is sometimes necessary. In a society that tends to polarize, the Waters/Gilmour dichotomy in Pink Floyd is one more sign of how unfair comparisons can be. In This Is Rock we want to put on the table what this great artist meant for the greatness of one of the legendary rock formations of all time. Nothing better than doing it from the perspective of his solo work from 1983 and, of course, a resurrection of the band that was not only his work, but also had his unequivocal identity mark and his personal musical seal".
They add: "In the times when 'A Momentary Lapse Of Reason' was conceived, many of us feared for the future of Pink Floyd, foreshadowing that nothing good would happen to the group, but it was the perseverance of David Gilmour, as well as his rebellion against a challenge launched by Roger Waters, that would make us able to enjoy for more than a decade of excellent work with the name of the band. It is fair that we now pay a great and well-deserved tribute to those who made it possible."
