Sony Music

Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour is giving fans a taste of his most recent solo tour, which wrapped in November. The rocker just released a live recording of “The Piper’s Call,” which was the first single off his latest solo album, Luck and Strange.

The Piper’s Call Live Around The World” is a mash-up of performances from throughout his Luck and Strange tour. It features clips from The Brighton Centre in Brighton, England, Rome’s Circus Maximus, London’s Royal Albert Hall, Los Angeles’ Intuit Dome and New York’s Madison Square Garden, edited together to form one song.

“On the Luck and Strange tour, I played with the best band I’ve ever had. Their personalities, playing abilities and enthusiasm for my new music have made for a fabulous experience for Polly and me,” Gilmour shared, referring to his wife and co-songwriter, Polly Samson. “Thank you to everyone who attended the shows in Europe and America and thank you for buying Luck and Strange. I hope you found as much enjoyment in the music as we did while performing it.”

Released in September, Luck and Strange was Gilmour’s first album of new material in nine years. The album debuted at #1 in the U.K. and at #10 in the U.S.
