Transcription
Recording
The saxophones are played by Tom Scott and John Helliwell, the latter best known for his work with Supertramp. The track is bookended by "A New Machine (Part 1)" and "A New Machine (Part 2)" which creates a mini-suite on the album. The sequence of "A New Machine (Part 1) - Terminal Frost - A New Machine (Part 2)" were the only tracks from the album which were not performed at every show of the A Momentary Lapse of Reason Tour, frequently being dropped. David Gilmour has said that "Terminal Frost" is the oldest piece on the album, having been written many years before.
