During the conversation, which also included Gilmourâs wife, author/lyricist Polly Samson, David announced, âI am trying to make some music.â Gilmourâs most recent release was a Leonard Cohen-inspired acoustic song called âYes, I Have Ghostsâ that David wrote and released in conjunction with Samsonâs 2020 novel A Theater for Dreamers. Asked if the material for his upcoming project also was influenced by Cohen, Gilmour said, âWell, thereâs a number of things that come from before this whole period, from before my last album [2015âs Rattle that Lock], which are the things that Iâm playing with to some extent, as well as some new music, too, to get myself back into the mood for work.â
