Session Players
During the making of About Face and the like, as well as the tour that David did, why did he hire session players rather than just play with Nick and Rick....he didn't want to share royalties? Or just wanted a change of scenary?

Because About Face is a David Gilmour solo album?

As in, not Pink Floyd.

I think Dave was looking to see if he could get away with doing anything without the Pink Floyd name. And he couldn't. So he hired Rick and Nick again 3 years later and slapped "Pink Floyd" on his next solo record.
