“It’s boring. It’s over. He left our pop group when I was in my 30s.” David Gilmour says he'll talk about his fall-out with Roger Waters “one day”, admits he doesn't know his old friend's post-Pink Floyd work

David Gilmour.

David Gilmour will release Luck And Strange, his first album of new material in nine years, through Sony Music on September 6. In an EPK (Electronic Press Kit) serviced to media, the Pink Floyd vocalist/guitarist says that the album is the best record he's made since The Dark Side of the Moon, but, understandably, while promoting his new music, he's not overly keen on revisiting the break-up of the line-up which made that classic album. 

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, journalist Andy Greene broaches the subject of Roger Waters with Gilmour. Greene points out that, in 2010, the two musicians were on friendly enough terms in order to play a charity show together, and that Gilmour then guested at one of Waters' The Wall gigs in London, and asks what changed, leading to the “current impasse” where the pair are no longer on speaking terms.
