    I have probably seen or heard every recorded version of Comfortably Numb that exists over the years. I keep coming back to this particular version, and I truly believe that it contains the "G.O.A.T." of guitar solos! I'm awe struck every time!

    I do think that if I happened to be David Gilmour and could play this stunning guitar solo in such a remarkable way, I’d simply have to plug in every night and play this for my own gratification and say to myself “Well done Dave, good job!” However, I suspect that Mr Gilmore is far more modest than I ! Thank you instead that this, and many more examples of your virtuoso playing are out there forever for us to enjoy, and that I can simply plug in the headphones every night and listen enthralled,and so it is I that say to you Sir , “ Well done Dave, good job!”

    At 4:30, that split second before Gilmour's pick first strikes the strings
    is reminiscent of Michelangelo's "The creation of Adam"..that powerful,
    minuscule pause in time before the hand of a God touches a mortal
    instrument, creating an energy that will effect mankind for eternity.
