Thus, I go back to contributing albums for which a review is not already available on Sputnik. This review may also be found on my personal blog at the address . David Gilmour released his second solo venture in 1984, following the apparent dissolution of Pink Floyd. He had released a record on his own in 1978, but About Face is much more accessible. Gilmour has a stellar band backing him, including Jeff Porcaro drums, Pino Palladino bass, and Anne Dudley synthesizer. The songs on About Face show a pop sensibility that Pink Floyd rarely was concerned with achieving. Although the album didn't attract the attention of a Floyd release, several cuts did manage to get airplay. Album 1984 10 Songs. Rock 1984. Gilmour has never been the speediest fellow when it comes to maintaining his solo career. But in 1984, with his main gig in Pink Floyd at a dead end, he was finally out of excuses not to follow up his self-titled 1978 debut. Looking back on About Face during a 2003 interview with Record Collector , Gilmour summed up the album and the rest of his solo output with typical understatement. We knew Roger wasn't going to be part of anything we did, but before he'd officially left, he had us trapped in limbo. I was putting my toe in the water, Gilmour shrugged. Then he left and I was unencumbered and carried on doing Pink Floyd
