Ultimate Classic Rock has retracted its story from a few days ago, stating David Crosby and Graham Nash will appear on the upcoming Pink Floyd album.

The source cites the Brain Damage website saying the duo’s work will, instead, appear on an upcoming David Gilmour solo album.

Two upcoming Floyd-related projects. Even better. 😉

Ultimate Classic Rock reports “The Endless River,” the new Pink Floyd album coming this fall, will include vocals by David Crosby and Graham Nash.

“We went down to sing on this particular song that he wrote about friends that had died,” Nash told VH-1 Radio Network’s Dave Basner. “It’s a beautiful song, too — beautiful.”

Nash was the first to leak news of a new Floyd project, when he mentioned during a TV appearance last November he was heading over to Gilmour’s studio to lay down some tracks. The project was presumed to be a Gilmour solo album, but apparently was “The Endless River.”

Crosby and Nash sang background on the title track of Gilmour’s “On an Island” (2006).
