In the mid 1980s, following the departure of bassist / lyricist Roger Waters, guitarist David Gilmour and drummer Nick Mason set out to produce a new Pink Floyd album, recruiting estranged bandmate Richard Wright. A Momentary Lapse of Reason (produced by Bob Ezrin who worked on The Wall) was released in 1987. Tracks included the MTV hit "Learning to Fly", along with "On the Turning Away" "Sorrow" "One Slip" and "Dogs of War" (which featured Scott Page on saxophone). Pink Floyd prepared a tour, also recruiting vocalists Machan (Margaret) Taylor, Durga McBroom and Rachel Fury. Filling out the band was bassist Guy Pratt, keyboardist Jon Carin, guitar player Tim Renwick and percussionist Gary Wallis. The band performed the new album in it's entirety (although "Yet Another Movie" and "Terminal Frost" were left out of the film) along with select tracks from Meddle ("One of These Days") Dark Side of the Moon ("Time", "Money", "Us and Them" and "Great Gig in the Sky" featuring their amazing singers) Wish You Were Here ("Shine on you crazy Diamond" - dedicated to original band member Syd Barrett, along with the title track) and The Wall ("Another Brick in the Wall Pt. 2" "Run Like Hell" and "Comfortably Numb" featuring Dave's legendary guitar solo). The tour saw a return to form for members Nick Mason and Rick Wright and showcased David Gilmour as a front-man. Delicate Sound of Thunder was recorded and filmed at Nassau Coliseum in New York in 1988. It was re-released in 2019 as part of The Later Years 1987–2019 box set. All three band members interviewed continue to perform to this day. Durga McBroom formed Blue Pearl and performs with her sister Lorelei (who also worked with Pink Floyd). Machan Taylor teaches at NYU and The New School, while Scott Page has had a career as a businessman with companies like 7th Level and Think EXP.
