Albert No. 3 (Album No. 1)

It would be hard not to feel good when your new album has just entered the chart at Number One, and it was in that context that David and band hit the stage for a sensational third night at London’s most prestigious venue. A wave of audience enthusiasm took everything up a notch, and the musicians gave it their all to a tremendous reaction throughout. Among a parade of special moments were the appearance of Gabriel Gilmour on piano for In Any Tongue, Guy and Steve’s co-ordinated break in Sorrow and David’s emotive and impassioned solos on High Hopes and Comfortably Numb, but the strength of the ensemble throughout meant that this was simply a fantastic show, without question.

Everyone can now take a short break before the final two London shows in a week’s time.
