Peace be with you (Gilmour/1986)

The famous unreleased track from the album. This track was written to convey a message of appeasement to Waters. In January 1987, Bob Ezrin and David Gilmour call Carole Pope (a Canadian singer) to help them rewrite parts of Gilmour's work and possibly come up with a concept idea for the future « A Momentary Lapse of Reason » (to no avail).

Carole Pope:

« They did have one song, though, which I thought was quite nice, though it never surfaced on _Lapse Of Reason_. It was a mid-tempo thing about Roger Waters, called `Peace Be With You.' Seems strange that they didn't use it. »

Penthouse Magazine, Septembre 1998.

James Guthrie :

« Peace be with you exists as a demo only. To my knowledge, it was never completed as a song. So you would probably need a lot of work if they were going to release it (...) in a way, it sounds like a missing link between «About Face» and «A Momentary Lapse of Reason» »

« Roy Harper songs » (Gilmour, Harper/1986)

In 1986, while Pink Floyd was working on their album « A Momentary Lapse of Reason », David Gilmour sought to inject new creative energy into the project. Aware of the importance of renewing the band's sound and lyrics after Roger Waters' departure, Gilmour considered collaborating with Roy Harper.

However, despite Gilmour's enthusiasm for this collaboration, it ultimately did not materialize. The exact reasons remain unclear, but it is possible that artistic differences or time constraints prevented this creative union.

Interviewer: « You and Dave had made quite a few demos in the past. Were any of them used on the « A Momentary Lapse Of Reason » album? »

Roy Harper: « Uh, yeah ... (laughs) Yeah ... That's ... I shouldn't talk about that, really ... (laughs) Ask me another question! »

The Amazing Pudding, 1991.

Manz 1/2/3 (Gilmour, Manzenara/1986)
Following the Dave’s idea to working with some musicians, the new Floyd’s leader calls Phil Manzanera for writing some new songs

Interviewer: « Devait également figurer un morceau intitulé Manz ? ».

David Gilmour: « J'ai écrit trois chansons avec Phil Manzenara et nous leur avions donné un nom de code, Manz 1/2/3. Une seule figure sur l'album, les deux autres ne sont pas finies ».

« Pink Floyd à Versailles», Pulsions, June 1988

Phil Manzanera:

« (…) David came over to my studio, and we spent a couple of days doing two tracks. One of them became One Slip' the original demo is nothing like how it ended up, because the sequencer part was actually done on a guitar, with some echoes. I've never able to repeat it».
