Had I bought the album, if not Pink Floyd had it been?

I read here of leftovers. There is only one "real" song, the rest is instrumental, most of the songs rippling as though to himself. Therefore, the album has not been priced as a new designed album, but just as a montage of sound samples. So it does not really build to tell no big story, but rather conveyed the atmosphere of moments have been tried as these short melodies.
Where explicitly not a new album is announced, I can not expect a new album. The idea sound experiments to connect to a river and then to call it that way I like it. At the athmospheric density can be heard clearly out Pink Floyd, but the album just lacks the concept, the up and downs, the significant turning points in the song, just sometimes the hardness. It is not a bombastic sound, no sharp worked out musical stories. It just flows. Just as it was announced. That is why I find the cover and the name quite appropriate.
And after listening, I must say, it's true: The album is a leftovers. However, these are to residues from the Pink Floyd fundus. That's still more interesting than many other CDs.

So I would have bought the album, if not Pink Floyd had it been? It is not as unlikely as it sounds good, if you do not 'Dark Side of the Moon' or 'Division Bell' expected, but just want to quietly rippling through the Pink Floyd Sound. Pink Floyd makes interesting music, even if it only passes, rather than blow away walls.

Would not Pink Floyd on it, I would have continued after the band been asking me to have a tape found in the hope that will be rocking with this atmospheric sound. As a concept album I would have liked more rock, but I think also a continuation of the Endless River would be interesting enough to listen.

So we turn to the question: Was this album a bad buy? No, I got a faint, athmosphärisches album that not turning up myself, which one can listen but relaxed. This is to my mind not typical of Pink Floyd that a music rather runterholt. It is a Pink Floyd album, you can hear in other situations than the previous model and therefore quite an asset. For me it is therefore good that it has been released.

Update from 10:11 .: The album runs quite regularly with me and the more you hear it, the more quotes can be found in music, brief moments of memory of other Pink Floyd albums. Time clearly heard, sometimes rather casually and quietly and passed again after a few sounds. Rainer Diederichs very good review points to compounds in which one pure sounds time after time. In this respect, quite a worthy farewell. And so I have to say that the album quite fully met a meaningful for me quality characteristic: The surprise that it already is (almost) over, when you arrive at "Louder Than Words" where you actually like listening to another hour would have.

Update from 21:11 .: increased from 4 to 5 stars. The album continues to run in heavy rotation, occasionally interrupted by 'The Division Bell' There now two weeks every day for at least 2 times running, the music is good, the quotes are fun and I still find it from start to finish interesting, seem to me 4 star now as inappropriate. 2 weeks to create just that I put my time take me with proper headphones on the couch is very rare. Would nevertheless only more bands find their approach would Highlights of the leftovers from Pink Floyd ...
