Delicate Sound of Thunder
In the late 1980s, Pink Floyd came roaring back with a decent studio album and an awesome stadium tour.Delicate Soundis a postcard from that tour that has the impossible task of capturing the spectacle of flying pigs and crashing beds. Also without the brood and bass of the departed Roger Waters, even a large backing band can't recreate the majesty of the original recording of "Shine on You Crazy Diamond." Still "On the Turning Away," fromA Momentary Lapse of Reason, sounds better than the studio version and a smattering of Floyd's best cuts fromThe WallandDarkside of Moonmake this live album a decent collection.--Greg Emmanuel
