I've been watching your reactions for a while now and I appreciate your take on many performances and songs that forged my childhood. Thank you.
Off the topic, wondering if you'd ever give thought to reactioning to John Chapman the first medal of honor ever recorded. Thank you.
Take Care

This recording is still not their best performance of this song. There was a concert vid in the late 80's that was other-worldly. The back-up singers were dancing in hypnotic unison during the long solo at the end.
You should definitely hear the studio version; younger voices, better quality
You should watch ‘Echoes’ at Pompeii by Floyd when Roger was still in the band.
Great stuff. Good for you for letting it flow! One of my favorite songs.
Totally different. Little River Band.
A guy was listening to "Comfortably Numb" with his girlfriend. He says, "you're listening to the 2nd best guitar solo ever." She says, "what's the 1st?" He says, "it starts in about 2 minutes!"
I'm stealing that line
Yes, that is right. It does the first solo & then a very long second. The best ever!!!!!
Priceless❤
A smart guy
music art is subjective.
That solo... literally... makes me cry. Every. Single. Time. IMMORTAL
Me too! Every time!!!
My favorite since I was 11 years old when I first listened to this song on the Wall Album.. I'm 39 now and Pink Floyd will always be my favorite band...Their music speaks to my soul..
It definitely pulls the strings (pun intended).
Me to 😁
My favorite guitar solo of all-time 💖🦋
The great grandfather of all guitar solos. No shredding, no nonsense, just lots of emotions through the guitar.
Him and Peter Green play with feeling
I like shreddy stuff too, but this is something else
No gimmicks just pure genius, talent & emotion. David Gilmour is not pretentious he just wears a T. Shirt & his guitar.
It helps to be playing over beautiful chords with some of the finest musicians ever.
Leo Fender created the Stratocaster. David Gilmour was created to show the world how to play it.
Thank you so much for not interrupting his solo like so many others do. You truly get it.
There is no one, NO ONE that can put more emotion into a guitar solo than David Gilmour
I've been listening to Pink Floyd for 40 years. This performance was David Gilmour's moment of perfection. And that's why, after almost 30 years, it's still considered one of the top five guitar solos ever
I was there!
Since 1967 for me.
“Dave Gilmore can do more with a single fret than most guitarists can do with the whole fret board”
Gilmour not Gilmore
That solo should be declared an Official Work of Art. Gilmore is just amazing: been listening to him for 30+ years. ❤
I love seeing a young person enjoy the music I grew up with.
I was at that very concert at Earls Court in London 1994, about 12k people in there. I’m 62 now and it’s still one of the best evenings of my life and by far the best concert I’ve ever been to. So glad it was so well recorded and that new generations like you can enjoy the finest guitar solo ever. 😊
I saw them at Earls Court the night after this was recorded. Best concert i've ever seen.
Jeez, so jealous!
@@obijon7441 i was there aswell the pusle album dvd was recorded over seven nights and then edited along with some footage recoded with no audience im lead to believe so on parts of the dvd you were there best concert ever
@geoff mewett. Cool, I never knew that. Might have to dig my copy of the dvd out and see if I can spot myself then, lol.
I’m 58 and was at that concert also … for me it was topped by Live Aid; completely different occasion vibe I will concede.
The album solo is one of the greatest ever, but the solo from the Pulse concert is in a whole different dimension. It's unparalleled. Sheer perfection.
The album version just fades out a few minutes earlier and then I have musical blue balls 😂
I’d have to switch to the Pulse version to actually finish the song. Since listening to music on Spotify, I’ve taken to using a playlist for The Wall so I can just insert the live version.
I know the extended solo was added later, but it’s so powerful it just transforms the song.
@@keithwilliams88TBH, I quite like playing the album version for that very reason - because then I can improv a bit to finish it off my own way, but it does get frustrating just fading out like that.
Gilmour changes a lot of stuff live. I'm sure the PULSE and "Live in Gdansk" CN solos are different to each other.
The extended solo he does on The Wall tour for Mother is definitely one to check out as well.
It does my old heart good to see young people enjoying the music of my generation. Because one doesn't merely listen to Pink Floyd. One EXPERIENCES Pink Floyd.
I feel a bit sorry for the younger generations who have absolutely no idea how creative the 60's 70's & 80's was in the music industry. There were so many great bands & artists all competing with one another for top spots. I do not feel they have the same level of creativity today. The sad thing is, we are seeing these great people passing & I look back at the long passage of time & wonder how it went in a blink.
Well said!
Best Solo EVER (so far). Drop a like on the video if you want more from Pink Floyd. Thanks for watching!
Best solo of all time. Period.
David Gilmour is the GOAT.
This was the opening night of 5 shows they played at Earls Court in London, I was lucky enough to be there the following night. I was 19 and it was mind blowing. The effect in the room when the giant disco ball dropped really isn't done justice in the video.🤯
It is actualy called out to be the #1 guitar solo ever ;-) . Do same concert;" Great gig in the sky" bro peace
Sir, you would make a fantastic old style radio DJ. It really suprises me that that hasn't been done yet. Podcast format would be cool, like old college radio.
If there is a better guitar solo it's going to be David Gilmour in another Pink Floyd song.
I recommend "Sorrow" from this same concert, and also "High Hopes" live in Gdansk (video at David Gilmour's official YT channel).
I fell in love with pink Floyd in 1968, I’m 68 now and they still do it for me.
Imagine hearing this as a teenager in the 80s and it being totally different from anything you've heard.
Life changing/ altering.
Arguably the best guitar solo of all-time. Never ever ever interrupt a Gilmour solo...it's sacrilegious.
Thank you so much for the reaction man, even after more than 15 years after losing a dear friend to a car accident, I can't watch this video without crying. That was our gang's song.
😥
I saw this concert tour with my best friend in 94 and he has passed also. I know the feeling. Great friend great memory
This is one of my all time favorites for so many reasons. I'm sorry about your loss. I will think of you and your friend from now on whenever I here this song Finnor and I hope someday this song brings you joy with the memory of your friend and not sorrow. Peace.
@@jaxonfreeman1756 Thank you for the kind words Jaxon. I feel a mix of joy and sorrow, is a very strong emotion. I love this song with all my heart!
I saw them live in ‘87 and ‘94. I don’t know why I’m even commenting because there are literally no words to describe how moving this is in person.
Beyond any guitar solo on earth, ever. Any style, any artist. It's not just the notes, it's what it does when they go through you.
PULSE is best concert of anyone ever. It’s genius.
David Gilmour LIVE AT POMPEII concert is magnificent too. I have PULSE too. x
Comfortably Numb was released in 1979. And this is the same guy, David Gilmour singing and playing guitar. So glad you picked this one because the Pulse concert extended version of Gilmour’s second solo is imo the absolute best live guitar solo EVER! Thanks
So awesome to see another connoisseur of music appreciate the beauty of this Pink Floyd production.
This song is the answer to "If you had one song to listen to for the rest of your life, what would it be"
I think David is one of the best guitarists of any generation. He plays so effortlessly just stands there and plays. Was very fortunate to see Pink Floyd at Wembley in 1988.
Another great solo of many is the solo from On the Turning Away.
At the Pulse Concert in 1994, you are seeing 3 members of Pink Floyd from the 1960s performing at close to age 50 (David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Richard Wright). At the Pompeii concert, David Gilmour is in his early 70’s and still plays and sings so well.
If this moved you, you’ve definitely got to listen to their masterpiece, “The great gig in the sky”, it will have you in tears, it’s so beautiful and timeless.
a cover on UA-cam by "ATOM" of TGGITS is suggested.
But listen to studio version. Far better than the Pulse version of TGGITS
@@bigbrew2573 interested in your thoughts on the cover Sir, lemme know if you feel inclined to check it out!!
Finally, in recent times, the session vocalist for that song, Claire Torry, gets the recognition she deserved. It was she who really made that tune. She ad libbed her entire part with the pre-recorded music. She thought she did horribly when she finished. She had no idea what she had done. I remember every note she had sung. I can play it in my head to this day.
The best version of The Great Gig in the Sky is from the Delicate Sound of Thunder video concert. The trio of Rachael Fury, Margaret Taylor and Durga McBroom are beyond compare.
I grew up up in the sixties, seventies so I know exactly what pink Floyd is about. Pink Floyd forever ❣️.
I saw Floyd play at Rice Stadium (outdoor stadium) in Houston, TX, on April 5th of 1994. That was the most AWESOME concert I have ever seen, before or since. After the concert got started good, a huge thunderstorm rolled in. The skies opened up, and the rain came pouring down. Thunder was rolling. Lightening flashed almost in time with the laser lights. It made them look like beams of dots instead of solid beams. None of us (and I mean no one), cared that we were getting soaked. They played until Gilmore's last guitar shorted out, even though they were under a cover that was part of the stage decoration, since the rain was sheeting sideways underneath it. It was raining so hard that a slight dip started forming in the canvas far overhead of the stage. It happened to form just over the backup singers, who were in their purple evening gowns, standing on risers. The dip got so big, and started drooping lower and lower, which caused even more water to collect in it. Finally, it was so huge with the volume and weight, that the material finally split and countless gallons of water came down in one big gush. You could actually see this big, almost ball-shape of water crashing down on the backup singers, just as they were giving it their all. I was surprised that none of them were injured, or at least they acted like they weren't. The show went on, as I said, until David Gilmore's last guitar shorted out.
Btw, they didn't want to play in the Astrodome, because no smoking was allowed in there. Heh, heh.
At the beginning, before the rain got too heavy and the sky too dark, there were clouds of smoke all over everyone in the stands. It was such an incredible, unforgettable evening and night.
First Pink Floyd song I ever heard was Time. Changed my life as I heard the message. Went back to school and started my life as an industrial mechanic at a large company. When training young technicians i always loved to tell them "Welcome to the machine. Always had that double meaning. Love Pink Floyd, not one bad song.
I forgot about Time!! Thank you…
In my opinion, that solo is the best solo ever because of the feelings and emotions it pulls out of you.
All versions of this song and solo are worth listening to over and over again.
I had the privilege of seeing them live at Mile High Stadium in the late 80’s it was an experience of a life time wrapped up in nearly three hours of pure music heaven.
The best way to suggest Pink Floyd is to simply start from the beginning and listen your way through, as you will have the best trip ever!!
Dave’s voice, like most artists’, gains a little more rasp over the years. Love this version. His voice is clear and almost ethereal.
Pink Floyd will change your life. I hope the younger generations will continue to embrace and celebrate their music.
Not just on your channel. There is no solo AT ALL that is emotionally more powerful than this.
Literally one of the GREATEST guitar solos EVER! David Gilmour is on my guitar Mt Rushmore along with SRV, Jimi, and Eddie Van Halen
True put Terry kath up there
Add Gary Moore 🙂👍to Mt Rushmore as well!
SVR was a genius on the guitar. BB King and Clapton and many other said that they could not do what he did with a guitar. Even Eddie said said the same thing. Stevie Ray was a savant for the guitar and his life ended early. I have met his bother Jimmy many times he keeps Stevie alive with what he does yet he says he cannot do what his brother did on the guitar.
Jimmy Paige
Prince
Let me just tell you that watching in person that the light ball opening up into a bright flower in the center of the arena during the final solo was the MOST MINDBLOWING thing I've ever seen in person. When it finally cracks open the light is so bright that it's blinding and raptures you into another plane. When I die I want that solo taking me into the next world. Not kidding. Seriously. Saw this live in 1994.
Me too and can’t completely confirm how amazing it looked though I did have some substances which made it look even better 😂
haha i don't think it mattered if you took them or if the entire area had a whiff @@JohnlivesontheIsleofMannow
I literally came here to say the same thing! The disco light ball flower blew me away! I was so into the song and the lights onstage that I didn’t notice what was about to happen. When the lights hit the ball, I felt like I had entered another world. Along with the guitar solo and overall vibe, this had to be one of the most incredible concert moments I’ve ever had.
The frigging best !!!! Have seen Floyd , 2 time in concert , bloes you away all the time.
David Gilmore can truly make a guitar speak to you. He is a true artist and a master.
A great guitarist, that’s a given, but I always thought he is a truly underrated single as well. He has a lovely tone.
Gilmour not Gilmore
I'm 37 years old.I was lucky to discover Pink Floyd at a very young age.Every single time i hear this solo it brings tears in my eyes.welcome to the rabbit hole bro.
I totally agree, it is the best solo ever! Total FIRE!
Absolutely the most amazing guitar solo ever. He doesn’t even need words because the guitar speaks to the heart by itself!
Top 1 solo of all time…it’s flawless and he even extended it every time u think he will end it he just keeps pushing it further and further…
you want to see SORROW from the live pulse concert remastered. A more upbeat ominous song with similar solos, with jaw dropping intro/outro. Got to do this one, i guarantee you will leave you speechless and is far above the studio version
Absolutely 💯 💯 💯
I love this version but also the Delicate Sound Of Thunder version which was remastered very well! I remember seeing the lasers back in the 80's and being blown away. Apparently it was said that these lasers were extremely powerful for the time.
Absolutely!
Yes this. Sorrow, Pulse Remastered. It won't top this solo but it will give you another hit of watching god be channeled through a guitar.
When that disco ball opens up…it’s like the wings of an angel! Thanks for not interrupting the solo. Amazing.
And yeah, that magical disco ball was amazing. Like many who grew up listening to Pink Floyd release music in real time, being able to see them at this concert is a pilgrimage. I can tell you for sure that every single person in that stadium was crying at the end of this song.
Just a T-shirt, jeans and pure talent
The next Pink Floyd reaction should definitely be "Sorrow" from the same Pulse concert (look for Restored & Re-edited version of this song). Another magnificent guitar solo from David Gilmour.
And THAT is how it’s done! These guys aren’t one of the biggest album selling machines the human race has ever seen for nothing….utter geniuses! You must immerse yourself in The Wall….not all easy listening but chock full of incredible ideas, writing and playing!
Even Better, watch The Film "The Wall" Absolutely Brilliant!
So many copies of dark side sold it equals 1 in 14 people globally
@@penneyreed7316 not sure about your maths there man, 1/14th of the World’s population is about 570 million, Dark Side has sold about 45 million copies….
Been listening to Pink Floyd since the 70s they never get old. Classic ❤Just absolutely amazing just keep getting better ❤
The solo is one of the greatest of all time. So much feel.
Just wait til you get to all "3" parts of Pink Floyd's "Shine on You Crazy Diamond." Definitely one of the most beautiful songs every written. It's absolutely incredible!
Or all parts of "the wall" in sequence.
Every single song from this concert is exactly like this. Pink Floyd invests more production for one song than most bands invest in an entire concert.
I saw them twice. Once was a normal concert from them (if normal can actually be used to describe them) but the other concert was a VERY rare concert where they played "The Dark Side of the Moon" in its entirty in one set. I have seen some of the best live music the 60s/70s and 80's have to offer. Floyd is not a concert, its a spiritual event where they channel the universe into their instruments and directly into your ears. This is artestry.
It is the concert DVD called PULSE 2-disc set featuring on one side all of DARK SIDE OF THE MOON. I can remember in the early 70's laying down in a lounge room with friends listening to that album.
When you listen to Pink Floyd, they take you on a trip in your mind. You just listen and your mind's along for the ride.
David Gilmour is undoubtedly the greatest guitarist ever. Doesn’t use fast fingers like others these days. He stretches those strings like no other. He use’s every ounce of heart and soul in his music and @ 61 years old I am still hearing Pink Floyd as if it was my first time.
I went to a Pink Floyd concert in Chgo in the 70's. The Animals tour. It was incredible optics. They had dogs barking from speakers all over the arena. They had life like pigs flying over the audience, done by light show that looked real. Then the ancore was the song Money. The light show had money coins falling all over the audience. It looked real. I'll never forget that concert
Their visual show was incredible! I saw them in Chicago in the early 80's and I've never seen anything like it since.
Soldier Field...what a venue!
@@Bigdave1369 Yes. At Soldier Field.
Jealous!!!
David Gilmore is a genius. His guitar work is haunting and spiritual. I saw them when they were touring with dark side of the moon. I am that old. I was 16 at the time. Entire concert was mesmerizing
I saw this in 1994 and was elevated to heaven on earth 🌎
That solo gives me goosebumps, makes me laugh, and then tear up.
I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all.
Euphoria, Utopia, this song is on a different level. They create the trip/high with music, it's insanely talented!
This solo, Eruption from Eddie Van Halen, Freebird from Skynyrd and Stairway to Heaven all transcend time. It doesn't get any better than those.
EVH is an absolute beast but Eruption doesnt compare to this solo (at least for me ofc)
All those except Eruption are great emotional well phrased solos. Eruption...not a fan and not a fan of what it spawned.
@@brobbus0 Not a particularly huge fan of the Shredders, per se, but they did connect directly all the way back to the classics/Handel/Vivaldi, etc.
@@brobbus0 I get it. Cheers.
@@HAbarneyWKgonna catch hate, but EVH is overhyped.
Randy Rhodes was musically more gifted, Vai is a better technician. Van Halen just had a couple of cool songs.
Sultans of Swing, this song, Freebird (live at knebworth), Cliffs of Dover, SRV’s Little Wing…maybe Led Zep’s Stairway… pretty much peak classic rock. Some of Slash’s lead work on the Use Your Illusion albums is epic and underrated, too.
One by Metallica and Tornado of Souls by Megadeth would probably be peak “metal” guitar to my mind.
Your reaction is one of the greatest "Told you so" moments. Glad you liked it
Watching them play this song live back in 1994 (San Antonio) was the closest I've ever had to what others call a 'religious experience.' Surprised how moved I was by the song live.
I saw PF the first time in 1975 when I was 18. Saw them 8 more times until this last concert in 94. Definitely watching ( and hearing ) a legend here.
I saw it live in 94 in San Antonio, Texas. I snuck a half ounce of you know what inside past security . we got high as fk. Everyone was smoking old ,young everyone. It was the best concert I had ever seen live. Also at this concert was the first time they used gold lasers which where cutting edge state of the art laser technology at the time. It was absolutely Magnificent and will take this memory with me to the grave .I was 20.
this is what good music sounds like. The way you feel right now - that's what music is supposed to do.
I saw them on this tour in 94 in Oakland, CA. No one sat down for 2.5 hour show. There was a couple shots in the video from the back you can see all the peeps all standing up huge rows enjoying the hell out it. No cameras, before cell phones, no one was a prisoner of the moment - fully fixed and focused on the feels Pink Floyd was delivering.
The entire Dark Side of the Moon (which came out 10 years before this album) feels this way. Some of my best feelings came from just relaxing with a pair of headphones vibing to that album.
There aren't many albums I can listen to over and over start to finish. Most just have a few choice songs here and there - but DSotM is pure gold start to finish.
What he said!!
I was there too in OAK with my pregnant wife. I am sure my son felt this show.
I went to this show as well on this tour. I also managed to go to the first tour (after they won the lawsuit that Roger filed against them) in the late 80s, when it rained for a good chunk of the show. None of us cared about the rain.
I saw them same tour but at the Silverdome in Pontiac MIchigan, pure bliss! And not being a jackass but Dark Side was 21 years before this...
I think he means that the Dark Side album came out 10 years before The Wall album, not this concert, because he says "this song".
You should definitely react to "Sorrow" from this same PULSE concert, it will blow you away. For studio recordings you should check out "Time"
I got to see this concert at The Rose Bowl in 1994 and his solo made me understand why people cry at operas...Perfection !!!
Well David Gilmore is a legendary guitarist and Pink Floyd is one of my favorite bands of all time. I started listening to them in the early 70’s and still do today. I saw them in concert in May 1988 Kansas City Arrowhead Stadium. The best concert ever, 2hrs and 40 minutes of pure awareness. Nothing compares to this.
You should definitely check out Echoes part 1 and 2, the live at Pompeii version from '72. I consider it to be one of the greatest songs ever written.
Unfortunately Rick Wright the keyboard player who also plays on this Pulse concert has died. Seeing as Echoes was a duet of sorts between Wright and Gilmoure, Gilmoure decided to not perform Echoes live again. 💔
Ya good call!
Good suggestion but maybe the last recorded version with Wright, the 25 min long Echoes version. The extra length is worth it.
Echoes is flawless
I saw Pink Floyd during the Pulse Tour. Let me tell you how UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE it was to hear it live!!! David Gilmour is one of the top ten rock guitarists EVER!
The whole Pulse concert is life changing. If you see this and haven't done it, see, "Shine On You Crazy Diamond". The first four notes explain the Universe.
This is what music should do….you should feel it physically(goosebumps/shivers as well as emotionally.David Gilmours guitar playing is phenomenal….
Yes, the lead guitarist (David Gilmour (In the black t-shirt) was the lead guitarist at the Pompeii concert, which was 22 years after this Pulse Concert. I love the David Gilmour/Pompeii version, but I love the Pulse version even more.
Before 😂…
@@seantricot7543 Before?

In this PF fan's humble opinion, PULSE stands for:
Pink's
Ultimate
Light/Laser
Show
Extravaganza
And this was only one song from this 3 hr concert!! Check out ANY song from this concert. You won't be disappointed!!
It's really interesting at least to me to compare the crowds from the 1994 Pulse show and the later versions of Comfortably Numb live, like the 2016 Pompeii version. In 1994, the entire crowd is quiet, intense, and immersed in the sound; in 2016, the entire crowd sings along and you can see thousands of cell phones for the audience to record their own versions. And in each David Gilmore is the heart of it all and the solos still soar, even after so many many years. A true artist.
You only have to see the scale working in the solo to know he was classically trained....a genius...adored by millions and yet still underrated!!!!
It's a B-minor pentatonic scale with the blues note. He takes literally the most basic scale and turns it into that solo. He learned the basics through a book that came with a little record you could use to hear things the book was teaching. The rest was self-taught.
That's far more impressive than being classically trained, I would think.
@@raoulduke344 I guess you would!!!!!!
Gilmour learned to read music sheets in his 60's, when he took up saxophone classes
@@raoulduke344 I'm pretty certain only Richard Wright was classically trained.
Man no matter how many times I hear this version, it always gives me goosebumps! The solo is the greatest of all time
Pink Floyd pioneered the use of lightning and stage presentations. As the years went by it evolved into what you just witnessed.
I saw so many bands in the 70's & 80's but the true stand out of them all was Pink Floyd. David Gilmour was born for this moment!
This is one of my favourite songs. Whenever i am a bit low i listen to this am it brightens me up. Just close your eyes and really listen the solo it's magical
I never get tired of seeing or hearing this song. Anything else you listen to by Pink Floyd should be from this same concert. Money, Time, High Hopes are more great ones. Thank you and please do more.
It's good to see young people getting into Pink Floyd (68me) and i've been a Floydie for 50 yrs. the second solo in this is considered to be the best solo ever. i will agree to that. i flew from Australia just for that concert. life changing. don't stop the journey. each album is a journey, and each track a different path to go on. don't stop your journey.
Best version of the best solo ever, in my humble opinion, when he hits those high, oscillating bends later in it always just does something to me.
Few can claim mastery of the guitar, David is one of them.
It’s just amazing how emotional this song makes you, this solo is incredible and you never tire from it.
Awesome man, also check out the song “High Hopes” from the same concert. I was at the same concert but in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. One of the best concerts ever.
Seeing Pink Floyd live is an EXPERIENCE. I was lucky to have seen them.
And that was not even the finale! No question, it is the best guitar solo for my taste. 👌👏👏
"Echoes" at Pompeii and Echoes in Gdansk. These are two incredible live versions of Echoes. Also watch the last concert that all four of the guys did. It was a benefit concert, Live Aid or something like that. All 3 of these videos are excellent.
'Echoes' at the Royal Albert Hall (from Remember That Night) is incredible as well. In fact, I like that one the most.
@@Pulsar77 I haven't seen that one. I'll check it out, thanks!
@@mikejacobson14 It's from the same tour as Gdansk, but IMO they play it a bit tighter and it has better sound and a better light show (the climax is spectacular). Enjoy!
I bought him a coffee and suggested Echoes, it's my favorite Floyd song.
As I'm sure everyone here will attest, you can ~literally~ pick any song from the Pulse Concert, and it will be phenomenal. The entire concert is a masterpiece. If you're looking to listen to Pulse versions of their hits, try Brain Damage/Eclipse, Time, Wish You Were Here, or Run Like Hell (typically the concert's finale, although not always). If you want great Pulse versions of songs you may not have heard before, try High Hopes (breaks your heart) or Sorrow. But this one, Comfortably Numb, is the one that brought the house down. What a night...
Oh, you mentioned how comfortable David Gilmour (guitarist) was, in a tee and jeans. Take notice of how the band members are lit on stage. Pink Floyd has always been about the music, not the players. So they are often lit from above, or the side, but less commonly from the front. Because they've never felt like they were, or should be, the center of attention.
Pink Floyd were known for the most innovative light shows. Dope and pink floyd went hand in hand so the song validated us using it 😊
After almost 45 years as a Pink Floyd fan, this never gets old. I read that at this concert there were 192 technicians involved in assembling the light show for this venue. Hands down favorite guitar solo of all time, wells up my eyes every time. Glad you got the chance to see this as well, a pleasure to see your reaction :)
The entire Pulse concert is phenomenal...these guys recorded most of the songs in the 70's...as they matured they sound so much perfect.
Arguably, one of the best guitar solos ever done.
My favorite moment in rock.. Always will be
