Yes SteveO, you are right - I bought it pre-release simply because they have never disappointed me before. I don't subscribe to the pro Gilmour or pro Waters argument. They are both talented and I have all their solo works. But when I put this CD on for the first time my initial response was - is that it? Is that all there is? And yes I have given it away - I have no desire to listen to it again. A lifelong die-hard Floyd fan, I just cannot believe how disjointed the whole thing is. There are some tracks on this album that are just filler material, nothing more. MH was right - they should have bowed out gracefully with The Division Bell. A superb album.
