After that, the core trio returned to Astoria, and worked further on the compositions, alongside co-producer Bob Ezrin, refining the structure, tempos and arrangements. The result, after lyrics and vocals were added, was the 12 million selling 'Division Bell' album.At the time, there had been talk of a separate ambient album being created from the non-vocal tracks not subsequently issued on 'The Division Bell', but the idea was eventually dropped.In 2014 David Gilmour and Nick Mason re-entered the studio and, starting with unreleased keyboard performances by Richard Wright, who sadly died in 2008, added further instrumentation to the tracks, as well as creating new material. The result is The Endless River, including 60% of recordings other than the 1993 sessions, but based upon them. The title is a further link, '... the endless river…' being part of the closing phrases of High Hopes, the final song of the previous Pink Floyd album. David Gilmour describes the record as follows: ""The Endless River has as its starting point the music that came from the 1993 Division Bell sessions. We listened to over 20 hours of the three of us playing together and selected the music we wanted to work on for the new album   Label: Parlophone – 825646213344 Format: CD, Album + DVD, DVD-Video, Box Set Country: Europe Released:   Nov 7, 2014 Genre: Rock Style: Prog Rock       Tracklist:     Side 1   CD-1   Things Left Unsaid E-Bow, Guitar – David Gilmour Keyboards – Bob Ezrin Organ [Hammond], Synthesizer, Keyboards – Richard Wright Written-By – David Gilmour, Richard Wright 4:26     CD-2   It's What We Do Bass Guitar, Guitar – David Gilmour Drums – Nick Mason Keyboards, Synthesizer, Strings – Richard Wright Written-By – David Gilmour, Richard Wright 6:17     CD-3   Ebb And Flow E-Bow – David Gilmour Electric Piano – Richard Wright Written-By – David Gilmour, Richard Wright 1:55         Side 2   CD-4   Sum Drums – Nick Mason Guitar, Bass Guitar, Synthesizer [Vcs3] – David Gilmour Keyboards – Damon Iddins Organ [Farfisa], Piano – Richard Wright Written-By – David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Richard Wright 4:48     CD-5   Skins Bass Guitar – Andy Jackson Drums, Rototoms, Gong – Nick Mason Effects – Youth Guitar – David Gilmour Keyboards – Richard Wright Written-By – David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Richard Wright 2:37     CD-6   Unsung Guitar, Piano, Synthesizer [Vcs3] – David Gilmour Organ [Farfisa], Piano – Richard Wright Written-By – Richard Wright 1:07     CD-7   Anisina Drums – Nick Mason Piano, Keyboards, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Backing Vocals – David Gilmour Tenor Saxophone, Clarinet – Gilad Atzmon Written-By – David Gilmour 3:16         Side 3   CD-8   The Lost Art Of Conversation Percussion, Guitar – David Gilmour Piano, Synthesizer – Richard Wright Written-By – Richard Wright 1:42     CD-9   On Noodle Street Bass Guitar – Guy Pratt Drums – Nick Mason Electric Piano [Fender Rhodes] – Richard Wright Guitar – David Gilmour Synthesizer – Jon Car
