Pink Floyd<\/strong>‘s David Gilmour<\/strong> and Roger Waters<\/strong> have been in a feud for a while now, which has resulted in public name-calling<\/a> and legal threats<\/a>. It’s hard to believe that the two ever got along, but according to Alan Parsons<\/strong>, the famed producer, engineer and musician who was behind the desk for The Dark Side of the Moon,<\/em> it used be a “joy” to work with them.<\/p>\n

In a new interview, Parsons was asked by YouTuber Rick Beato<\/strong><\/a> whether Gilmour and Waters used to feud back in the day. On the contrary, Parsons said, “They all got on really well. I mean, making Dark Side<\/em> was a joy. I mean, everybody was into what they were doing. Everybody was friendly.”<\/p>\n

“It’s terribly sad that the rift exists between them now,” he added.<\/p>\n

But while the band members were friendly, you’d never catch them actually saying nice things about each other, Parsons recalled<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“They were all critical of each other’s performances and not afraid to say,” he laughed. “If David Gilmour had produced an incredible guitar solo on something, Roger [Waters] might say, ‘I think that might be all right, David. Thank you.’ Pretty sort of low-key congratulations.”<\/p>\n

When Gilmour heads out on tour later this year in support of his new solo album,\u00a0Luck and Strange,<\/em> he reportedly plans to avoid<\/a> Pink Floyd songs from the band’s ’70s era, which includes much of the material he made with Waters, in favor of songs from the ’60s, ’80s and ’90s.<\/p>\n

Keyboardist Nick Mason<\/strong> recently suggested<\/a>, “It would be fascinating to see what AI could do with new music … the thing to do would be to have an AI situation where David and Roger become friends again.”<\/p>\n
