5 Things to Know About Pink Floyd's Grammy-Winning Track "Marooned"

“Marooned” won Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 1995 Grammys. The track is an instrumental from Pink Floyd’s 1994 album The Division Bell.

The album itself won no major Grammys. This is fitting for a solid but not legendary mid-career Floyd album.

The Division Bell is remembered as the band’s comeback album. It followed a decade of legal disputes and lineup changes.

The Grammy win is the album’s only major award. No other tracks or the album as a whole received similar recognition.

The track features David Gilmour’s signature slide guitar work. Its eerie, atmospheric sound is what earned the award.
