Mediterranean C and
Waves.

When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night.

^ Just a classy album all 'round, with excellent players, including the guys from Robin Trower's band.

Mad Yannis Dance is superb. Wright's keyboards just envelope the mind. Never tire from Wet Dream, although Broken China is no slouch either. |
I was listening it today. Mad Yannis Dance is ok, but I prefer Drop in front the top, this hammond sound. In any case my prefered is Summer Elegiy, a Wright trademark with this absolutely stunning solo by Snowy White.

Rick Fenn from 10cc on guitar and Dave Gilmour on vocals in one song (not a great thing). The insrumental Malta sounds great for me.

I agree with you, the live performance with Rick on vocals is better than the original. As you say it was a very special moment, and his voice is very floydian. | I also prefer the live version of Breakthrough. Actually, I never particularly liked the studio version, but when Gilmour invited Rick to play it with him, whith all the arrangements and the added Gilmour guitar and Dick Parry's sax (plus the backing vocals), the song was just about converted into a lost Pink Floyd song, and I really love how it sounds.
