Who is Rachel Brannock?
Rachel Brannock may refer to the session vocalist who toured with Pink Floyd between 1987 and 1989 under the stage name Rachel Fury. She is probably best known for her vocal performance of "The Great Gig In The Sky" on the Delicate Sound Of Thunder tour as well as for her duet with lead guitarist and vocalist David Gilmour on the track "Comfortably Numb" (on that same tour). Brannock had been introduced to the band by notable producer James Guthrie who was in a relationship with her around the mid 1980's. Brannock has been the subject of much speculation in the Pink Floyd fan community as to just what happened to her after her engagement with Pink Floyd. It has been suggested that Brannock has not performed as a vocalist since aprox. 1995 and may have become an animal rights activist. This however, remains unconfirmed. A Facebook page for the Brannock family includes a photo of Rachel Brannock from her time with Pink Floyd.
