Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour shared video featuring his cover of “Morning Has Broken.” Gilmour performed the song on Thursday, January 14 as part of his family’s latest Von Trapped family livestream.
While “Morning Has Broken” dates back to the 1930s, Yusuf / Cat Stevens popularized the tune with a version included on 1971’s Teaser And The Firecat. David Gilmour, his wife, and the rest of their family launched the Von Trapped series shortly after the pandemic began.
Last week’s Von Trapped livestream came in celebration of the North American release of Featherhood, a book penned by David’s son, Charlie Gilmour. Featherhood is a memoir wrapped up in a story of life raising a magpie to illustrate father-son relationships.
