Steven Rosen, Guitar Player, May 1979
DAVID GILMOUR has been playing guitar with Pink Floyd for 11 years now about one-third of his life. And for more than a decade, his style has been undergoing a constant refining process that parallels the band's evolution from a spearhead of the psychedelic movement of the l960s to a mainstay of the outer-space rock of the 1970s.
