Carsten Pieper Bjorn never made a secret of his Pink Floyd/Dave Gilmour and, as neither do I, it only was a question of time when I added this EP/mini album to my collection. The Karisma special deal helped, thank you very much :-)

I don't only love the music, the cover (and title) are also very fitting for this fine Floyd homage! Favorite track: A Voyage to the Sun.

vykr Do we need a new Pink Floyd? No. But, we can always do with artists who can finesse their spirit, and that is what Bjorn Riis is able to do without falling into simpering pastiche. Favorite track: Summer Meadows.

about

With “A Fleeting Glimpse”, Bjørn Riis has let his inspiration from Pink Floyd really come forth. Here he offers four new songs just under 30 minutes, where you can really cherry pick the Pink Floyd references throughout the listen. Riis even got Durga McBroom, one of Pink Floyd’s backup singers during the 80s and 90s, to do guest vocals on one of the tracks.

The music was recorded at Double Decker Studios, Oslo (Pymlico) and Riis Studio, Oslo. It was mixed at Subsonic Studio by long-time collaborator Vegard Kleftås Sleipnes, and it was mastered by Jacob Holm-Lupo (White Willow, The Opium Cartel).

In addition to Bjørn Riis on vocals, guitars, bass and keyboards, the album features Arild Brøter (Pymlico), Øyvind Brøter (Pymlico), Per Øydir, Durga McBroom and Mimmi Tamba.
