The Pink Floyd exhibition were holds in London at Victoria and Albert Museum from to 15 October 2017. momentary lapse of Reason released in 1987 is seen during the Pink Floyd exhibition. VICTORIA AND ALBERT MUSEUM, LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM - 5: An artwork of the album cover A. “So again we pulled it off in a live recording, which by then he had ‘warmed up’ by about 100 shows.” “He'd always felt that he didn't sing it as his best,” Jackson says. What hasn’t changed is Gilmour’s soaring guitar on this revision, as indicated by the standout tracks “Learning to Fly” and “Sorrow.” Yet there was a do-over that he did on the track “On the Turning Away” as it now features an alternate lead vocal from him. I think it was actually quite serendipitous to do that, because Rick was always at his best when he was ‘off the leash,’ rather than with the structure of studio recording.” “We had lots of recordings of the Momentary Lapse tour, and I combed through them for Rick's playing. “We'd been intending to get Rick into the studio ,” Jackson says. Consequently we had to be careful about what constituted being a member of the band.

“He seemed to be very ‘on it,’ obviously been doing his homework!” Jackson says of Mason. Longtime fans of Pink Floyd will certainly recognize Mason’s familiar and distinct drumming that is featured more prominently on the remix, especially the tracks “The Dogs of War,” “One Slip,” “Terminal Frost” and the album’s powerful and turbulent closing number “Sorrow” (the original album employed session drummers in addition to Mason).
However, the fact that they are not so bombastic is also very helpful in revealing the other parts that have been recorded for the album, both original and new.” This was a bit more tricky because the drums in particular are a quite substantial change. “I have now done quite a few bits of revisiting old albums for surround mixes and the like,” Jackson says, “so I am well versed in ensuring that the original vibe and feel of the albums is maintained. Yet the new mix is not a jarring sonic departure, as it still retains the overall flow and feel of the original record-this time, however, with Gilmour, Mason and Wright on equal musical footing.
