A few weeks ago, David Gilmour announced Luck and Strange, his first release since 2015, as well as a select set of tour dates and dropped a new video. On the second episode of the 100 Guitarists podcast, hosts Jason Shadrick and Nick Millevoi break down the video, from Gilmour’s collaborators and gear to his climactic solo. Friends and listeners call in to support their favorite member of the ’80s Armani and Strat mafia.
