DAVID GILMOUR: It was an alarming time. It was a big thing to carry on Pink Floyd with Roger having gone. He was a big, big part of it, a major talent – and our primary lyricist. So it was difficult. I would think of myself as more of a melodic type, and Roger is more of an aggressive wordsmith. Different sides of us came together to create what we became.

STORM THORGERSON: Shooting A Momentary Lapse of Reason was an absolute nightmare. Those beds are real; believe it or not. There are about 750 of them. And you know what? They’re wrought iron – they’re heavy as shit!
In a desire to make it a real art installation, we got the beds and took them down to the beach. The trucks held them at the top of the cliff and we had about thirty people carry them down by hand. It took us about six hours to put the beds out. It looked great – then it rained and you couldn’t see anything!
So, we had to cancel the shoot and take all seven hundred and fifty back up the cliff, put them back in the lorry, wait two weeks and do it again. At that point, I wondered if I was stark raving mad. I remember saying to David Gilmour when we were doing it: Nobody’s going to believe we were this fucking stupid.
