  1. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    As the primary architect of Floyd’s sweeping soundscapes, Gilmour has transposed them on to 10 shorter but equally elegiac, very beautiful songs

  2. 8.0 |   Mojo

    It operates in the here and now in a serene and triumphant manner. Print edition only

  3. 8.0 |   Q

    Pink Floyd mainman finally locates his inner groove. Print edition only

  4. 7.0 |   All Music

    A snapshot of where Gilmour is as a musician in 2015, and not by any means a grand portrait or statement to sum up his career
    Read Review

  5. 7.0 |   Rolling Stone

    An album that recalls classic Floyd

  6. 7.0 |   PopMatters

    An intimate album with genuine feeling and heart

  7. 6.0 |   The Arts Desk

    The AOR disco favours a slow glow rather than flashing lights; a chauffeur driven saloon rather than a gaudy stretch limo

  8. 6.0 |   The FT

    Gilmour’s playing throughout is of the highest quality
    Read Review

  9. 6.0 |   The Observer

    There are simple and undeniably lovely moments here – the hymn-like opening to Today is especially beautiful – but these are heavily outnumbered by displays of muso virtuosity
    Read Review

  10. 6.0 |   The Music

    It's easy to be cynical about an aging rocker lamenting the fading light, but this is a convincingly heartfelt achievement
    Read Review

  11. 6.0 |   Uncut

    Fluffy and slick. Print edition only

  12. 6.0 |   Spectrum Culture

    It’s pristine-sounding, rife with studio tomfoolery and overlaid with a pervasive sense of bliss
    Read Review

  13. 5.8 |   Consequence Of Sound

    Individually, the tracks easily read as Gilmour-accented Floyd B-sides
