David Gilmour was interviewed by Sue Lawley for the long-running BBC Radio 4 show 'Desert Island Discs' during
which he selected his favourite records: 'Waterloo Sunset' by The Kinks; 'Ballad In Plain D' by Bob Dylan; 'I'm Still Here' by Tom Waits;
'Dancing In The Street' by Martha and the Vandellas; 'Anthem' by Leonard Cohen; 'A Man Needs A Maid' by Neil Young; 'For Free' by Joni Mitchell;
and 'Rudi With A Flashlight' by The Lemonheads. When asked what three items (record, book and luxury item) he would take on a desert island, he selected
'Dancing In The Street' by Martha and the Vandellas as his record, an English translation of the Koran as his book and an acoustic Martin D35 guitar
as his luxury.
