"Cluster One", an instrumental, is the opening track on Pink Floyd's 1994 album, The Division Bell.[1][2]
History
It is also the first Pink Floyd song credited to Wright/Gilmour since "Mudmen", from the 1972 album Obscured by Clouds.
It was never performed live by the band, though portions of it were included in the sound collage tape played before their 1994 concerts.[citation needed]
White noise
The white noise which opens the track caused some confusion among fans in 1994, who were unsure, on playing the album for the first time, whether or not their copy was faulty, as the white noise lasts for nearly 1 minute before any music begins.
Personnel
- David Gilmour — guitars
- Nick Mason — drums, percussion
