This album prove that music style has no owner. Everything changes with time...

In the late 1980s, Pink Floyd came roaring back with a decent studio album and an awesome stadium tour. Delicate Sound is 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", from A Momentary Lapse Of Reason, sounds better than the studio version; "Money" gets freedom to move through reggae and lounge jazz (but the core of it as ever is in the dynamics between those ringing cash registers and the black women' s voices running wild through the middle bit); and a smattering of Floyd's best cuts from The Wall and Dark Side Of The Moon make this live album a decent collection.
