In an exclusive interview today, Gilmour, 78, expressed his frustration with the current state of the music industry and his decision to step away from performing and recording.
Gilmour, known for his iconic guitar solos and contributions to some of the most influential albums in rock history, including *The Dark Side of the Moon* and *The Wall*, did not mince words about his decision. “I’ve given my life to this music, but I’m done. The industry has changed, and it’s no longer the creative space I once loved. It’s become more about profit and less about passion,” Gilmour said in the interview.
While he acknowledged the profound impact music has had on his life, the renowned guitarist stated that the constant pressure and commercialization of the industry had made it difficult for him to continue. “I’ve seen the beauty of creation turn into something I barely recognize anymore. I want to leave before the joy of making music becomes something I resent,” he added.
Gilmour’s departure from the public eye is being described as the end of an era for both his solo career and the legacy of Pink Floyd. Fans are devastated by the news, with many taking to social media to express their gratitude for the music and magic Gilmour has shared over the decades.
The guitarist also addressed the future of Pink Floyd, stressing that it is “a chapter that is firmly closed.” While acknowledging the band’s history and contributions, he emphasized that the time for a reunion or future collaborations is “long past.”
Gilmour ended his statement by reassuring his fans that while he may be stepping away from the stage, he would always treasure the memories of his musical journey. “I’ll forever cherish the moments that music has given me, and I’m grateful for the love and support of those who’ve followed me along the way.”
As the news settles in, the world of rock music is reflecting on the profound legacy left by David Gilmour, a true guitar virtuoso whose music will undoubtedly continue to inspire generations.
