I was doing some admin and decided to stream 'Endless River' as background music, where it worked rather well. I am not the worlds greatest Pink Floyd fan - but have enjoyed their music since my schooldays (admit it - who didn't have a battered 'Dark Side of the Moon' LP and a crummy turntable). And...

The 'Metallic Spheres' album from The Orb with David Gilmour was quite good, in a trippy, ambient sort of way.
I've just noticed that 'Endless River' can be heard on streaming service Qobuz (as a FLAC file) - so I can find out for myself.
To be continued ...

Has anybody actually heard it yet?
