- Thank you to our patron FD for another FINE Floyd pick. If I had a time machine, this would legit be on my list to go see. It happened in the year of my birth and it's just awe inspiring. And we don't even see half of what they were seeing in the moment at that show. It's almost overwhelming at points. The lap steel for Dave was fantastic. Nick was jamming. Richard was just being Richard (fantastic). What else could you want from a performance?

Don't think we'll ever see brilliance at this level again in our lifetimes. What a time to be alive!
I was lucky enough to be in the crowd for this performance. Totally mind blowing
Agree about Rick, he was the soul of PF. But not just that, he and Dave had a musical connection, Dave talked about how they could anticipate each other and so work some real magic. If you want to see possibly the highest expression of that, try Echoes from David Gilmour Live in Gdansk. Rick is with him, and oh my goodness, seeing them musically "waltz" in that performance is beyond sweet. Dave said Echoes is a musical conversation between he and Rick, and he would never play it again after Rick died.
One of These Days lives rent-free in my head.
Every instrument in this concert was doubled up - two guitars, two drums two organs. That’s how they got the depth in a large arena. Excellent choice Lee !!!
Pink Floyd were noted for their psychedelic light shows from their earliest live gigs in the mid 1960s. They treated the light show as an integral part of the performance experience and the shows just kept getting bigger and better over the years. They were years ahead of their time and nobody to this day has ever done it better.
They knew the future was spectacle over substance. So they gave the substance to those who wanted it and gave the spectacle so the future generations would be attracted to them and then discover the substance for themselves. Who knows. Maybe they just enjoyed light shows
Love the little nod to the "Doctor Who" theme around 4:19.
that's it ,i thought that was off an old advert but i think that was eclipse ,amazing concert
This mesmerized me on acid in 1972., studio version. lol, when he pounded those drums about halfway in, I thought somebody was crashing through the door. Scared the shit out of me.
I was there,2nd night.
I was 40 in ‘94 but at that concert,I was like a child filled with wonder.
Best show I’ve ever witnessed.
I was 34. Saw it at Oakland. Best SOUNDING concert I ever attended.
In the early 70s, I saw PF in Vancouver playing the Dark Side of The Moon material sometime before the album was released. They played in a small venue called the Agrodome on a lovely summer night. It was the best concert I ever went to. In contrast to the brightness outside, the interior was nearly completely dark. Dozens of small speakers were placed all around so the sound seemed to come from everywhere. For 20 minutes or so, as people were seating themselves, a soft pulse/beat (like the opening of One Of These Days) played that seemed to lock everyone`s heartbeat into the same rhythm. Then they started in on the Dark Side. The place was still almost pitch black and the band played the whole concert without being seen. IOW, they played the Dark Side... in the dark. The band was everywhere and nowhere. A couple of times I saw the silhouette of a head and maybe a shoulder or a guitar, that was all. The stage was a clump of shadows with a few instrument lights barely visible. I had never heard or seen anything like it before. Everybody was in a rapturous semi-trance, mostly stoned, but all astounded at what they were experiencing.
At that time, Vancouver had just passed a law allowing strippers to perform in pubs and other venues. When PF reached The Great Gig In the Sky at the end, a few coloured lights came on to reveal two wings protruding from the stage onto which came several naked dancers (6, I think) to wail away. I didn`t think by that point anything could surprise me. I`m very sure of what I saw. It was probably illegal so it is hard to verify what happened. Others, stoned as well, saw different things. The concert was an epic night of mystery and wonder and musical magic. I`ve never seen an audience as profoundly moved.
PF returned and played A Brick In The Wall a bit later, in the Pacific Colosseum, a concrete horror that was brightly lit. Nothing was left to the imagination and I left, disgusted, halfway through. The 1st concert was the best, the 2nd possibly the worst one in over 50 years of concert going.
I saw them at the Gardens in Vancouver , once on the Wednesday night with my buds
, we gave a joint to Gilmore, then saw them the following Saturday by myself , the gardens was a great venue ! They played echoes , one of these days , careful with that axe , Eugene and all of Dark Side before they recorded it , the show was in quadraphonic, magical !
Dave. Thanks. I now agree that it was The Gardens, September, 1972. I remember a bunch of guys climbing up 3 guys outside standing on each other`s shoulder to allow a bunch of guys to clamber up them into a 2nd floor bathroom window and get in for free. In addition to the quad sound system I recall dozens of small speakers hung from various spots in the seated crowd to make the sound, particularly the lengthy opening pulse part, feel like it was coming from everywhere, as a sort of collective heart beat. As you reminded me, there were 2 concerts, which explains why I hear different versions of what I thought was only one concert over the years. Some of the confusion over what happened was also due to never having heard the Dark Side tracks before. We were all scratching our heads wondering what they were playing. I didn`t know until I listened to the album sometime later. All this was part of the shroud of mystery that made the evening magical. I don`t remember hearing Echoes, though, which I had heard before the concert.
The Dark Side album made PF commercially successful. I`m one of the few that didn`t really like their later albums that much although, as an elder PF fan, you are one of the few that must remember the unfairly ignored early film score albums, More, Obscured By Clouds, Zabriskie Point, etc. which have some lovely cuts. Do you still live in Vancouver? .
I was fortunate enough to be there - can’t believe it is 30 years ago this year !! The best gig i have ever and probably will ever go to.
The pigs were real inflatables either side of the stage - where i was sat - on the side quite high up i could spot how they got the pigs moving - basically someone lying on their back underneath the pig and moving them with their feet . Goes to show that great effects don’t always need computers.
Also love the fact you acknowledge the huge contribution Richard Wright made to Pink Floyd - he was and will always be the soul of Floyd
Great reaction
One of the first 3 albums I ever purchased back in 1973. 2,700 lp's and cd's later and I still loe this tune!
I was fortunate enough to catch one of the shows from this tour. Wonderful memories. Those pigs!
I am so glad to hear Richard Wright get some love! He is my favorite member of PF and I love to see the interplay between him and David.
Hang in there, things will get better. "One of these days, I'm going to cut you into little pieces" spoken by Nick Mason. I really love Rick Wright too; he's one of a kind. Hope you also do "Echoes" live at Gdansk (Poland) from 2006; it's magical. The last time Dave and Rick performed it together before Rick sadly passed in '08.
I went to this tour as an 18 year old and it was mind blowing. I'm going to see Nick Mason again in a few weeks. Last tour he played this song it hoping he'll do it again. It's always a show stopper for sure. Guy Pratt is in his band as well. Nice to see Richard Wright getting some love from newer fans.
One of my favorite song of Pink Floyd🤘
I'm not sure if I mentioned this before on your channel, but I'll just post it again.
I'm talking about the incredible, massive, stages Pink Floyd had built for this 1994 tour, "The Division Bell" world tour, they were built as replicas of the Hollywood Bowl arch. They built 3 independent, identical stages, including lighting, sound system, rigs, equipment etc., leapfrogging across North America ahead of the band.
They needed 3 stages because of the load-in setup time, (3.5 days), and tear down, load-out time, (2.5 days). The stages needed to be up ready to go when the band arrived.
Over 50 trailer trucks, transporting 700 tons of steel and equipment across North America. "The Division Bell" tour was from March to October, something like 120 shows in 70 cities, in 17 countries.
This show, (Pulse Concert), at Earls Court in London was one of the last few shows of the tour.
Best concert ever recorded in my opinion
I saw this tour, Still the best show i've ever been to
You were born the same year as my daughter, technically she was at a Pink Floyd show in Raleigh. Her mother was 4 months went we saw the show.
I saw this live and this was the song I remembered the most. Even more than Comfortably Numb, and I was literally right next to the giant disco ball when it came out during David’s solo
On the original studio recording, they got that unique bass tones by both Roger Waters and David Gilmour playing the bass part. However Roger's guitar tech instead of picking up new strings for Rogers Bass, went off to his girlfriends house for the rest of the day. So Roger recorded this using an old set of strings, while David was using his bass with a new set of strings.
And the "One Of These Days" was said by Nick Mason then put through some reverb and distortion. I think it was the only time he "Sang" in a song.
And supposedly, there is another version of this with a third bass part, but I haven't found it yet myself, although there are a few people who said they have heard it.
Seen this live in 94. Awesome show
I was 42 when this version came out but a teenager when the original was dropped. Needless to say I am a lifelong fan. Fortunate to have seen them live several times. Nothing compares to them.
A fav..i saw them perform this in 1973 for an encore after they played the entire DSOTM.
Listening to the album version was to me like riding a powerful motorcycle at night on the motorway, with the bridges zooming overhead as you accelerate to 120 mph before slowing for a junction and accelerating away again changing up through the gears. Amazing piece of descriptive music. Real genius which in a room with the lights out and the volume right up, just blows your mind ✌️
Pink Floyd is my favorite band and fortunately I’ve seen them twice. Once in 1988 and again in 1995 for Pulse. It was the best concert of my life!
I have to give you a shout out to the Iron Butterfly album in the background!!
Live twice in Atlanta and New Orleans. 89 and 91 I think. Seeing Floyd live is an experience I'll never forget, it's almost overwhelming. (especially if you have a little help) Edit: spelling and yes, David is one of a kind.
You gotta listen to the studio version someday
I remember the first time I heard the song One of these days live. It was live in the Westfalenhalle in Dortmund in 1988. I heard Guy Pratt hitting the strings of the bass. First briefly. Then faster and faster. The pulses ran through the hall. Always in circles. You had the feeling that the song was flying through the hall. Faster and faster. With Rick Wright's keyboard and David Gilmour's lapsteel. Together with the light and laser show, it was simply out of this world. It was almost 40 years ago now, but I will never forget that day
That was a hell of a way to finish the first half of the show. I was with my brothers on the field at Three Rivers Stadium for this song. All I was able to say during this song was "PIGS!" At the conclusion, the pigs fell out of the towers down to the ground.
I went to 12 concerts in the US. And 3 in London. 1994 was an awesome year!!!! Also saw Nirvana on 12/31/1993 in Oakland.
I'm with you on Richard. He was the man!!!
I did see this live, and it was even better than it looks here :)
This song and concert are as good as it gets, they are on another level to this very day. Simply the best! Do Sorrow from the same Pulse Concert or is you have seen it, do What Do You Want From Me, an underrated Floyd banger. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎷🎶
I saw this show in Pittsburgh. Absolutely amazing
Great reaction Lee!! This concert set a benchmark for sound and visuals - and honestly holds up to this day. The spectacle that Floyd presents is unparalleled - and this song is a perfect example of it! I remember buying my VHS copy of PULSE and watching it (after a perfectly rolled joint) and just being blown away! I think I rewinded this song several times in a row, I was so drawn into it.
Not many people notice it, but the point with the weird bassline, there is a clear guitar part played by Renwick that is the theme from Dr. Who! When I heard that, as a fan, I was giddy as a schoolboy! Amazing song. Cheers.
"One of these days I'm going to cut you into little pieces" Pink Floyd Best Line
Spoken by Nick.
Did you know that the bass player guy Pratt is Richard Wright's son-in-law
Saw them in the Chi in'71. Everybody tripping balls(Floyd encouraged that sort of thing) & saw a dude do a swan dive into the orchestra pit to this song
As this performance lets Rick and Dave shine, check out the Live at Pompeii version and see Nick shine.
love the late 60s floyd songs
The original studio version is great, possibly better, because it was so awesome sounding and had an otherworldly quality.
What memories. Pulse Tour Oakland. Flying pigs in the rain laser beam eyes.
Great reaction! Nick Mason is truly an under estimated drummer for sure..
I know Zildjian cymbals are popular with rock drummers but Paiste make some very beautifully sounding cymbals with pitch perfect bells as well. I loved my Sound Formuals , 101's and Signature series cymbals.
Please do Run Like Hell from the Pulse concert. It wasn’t the last song after Comfortably Numb. Just amazing
Saw this tour: absolutely mindblowing!!!
Richard Wright held Floyd together after Syd left and was the lead with his fantastic keyboards on this LP Meddle and Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here also brilliant RIP
Bass player Guy Pratt is married to Richard Wrights daughter.
Never noticed before that Tim Renwick slipped in the theme tune from Dr. Who!
I normally wait till the end of a video to comment, but "Yo Bro!" Richard Wright was the man. I've had many arguments about this over the years, but even beyond Waters' reign as lyricist it was the magic between Wright and Gilmore that created the "Sound" that is PF - IMHO
Seen this tour in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1994. It was even better live then the video shows...hard to believe but it's true...
Nicks words in an interview to the pulse-tour: We only play the soundtrack to the lightshow
Ya I wish I would have been there to . I was In high school ❤such a dope song
Saw this live. The pigs in our show dropped in from the rafters and flew around the arena. I guess they have different setups for different arenas. Mind blowing. Eargasms.
Brit Floyd is touring now. GO!!!
First time I saw PF was in a 1500 seat theater in Cleveland Ohio before Dark Side came out. Roger Waters played most of the concert with his back to the audience. Even then, their sound system was other-worldly. They had speakers set up throughout the theater so there was surround sound and there were songs where the sound literally circled the venue. Imagine how Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun would have sounded. They played all of Echoes as well as a few songs from DSOTM ( a preview of what was to come). An absolutely amazing performance
Really looking forward to this one Lee ( hardly surprising since I requested it 😎)
Hope you enjoy it bro
Just as an FYI....Guy Pratt is Richard Wright's son-in-law (and one HELL of a bass player). This was the closing number for the first set - I think the audience needed a break after this more than the band.
i went twice ... when the gig was over 90 % of the people were totally speechless , mouths agog some crying some couldn't walk had to stay seated for a while and collect them selves
One of their very best instrumentals, this song and Echoes makes the Meddle album. Do Echoes if you have not, enjoy! 🎧🎸🎤🎹🎶
Great, Great, Great.
One of the few songs where Nick Mason was lead "vocals"
Great song and live performance! Next, please check out Mother! Doesn’t matter if she’s still around or not, this will really hit home to anyone who has or had an overly protective mom. ✌️
A great reaction, more bangers from Pulse include Keep Talking and Run Like Hell
One of my all-time faves. The album it opens ends with Echoes. The whole album is just brilliant.
On the original, Dave and Rog both play slightly different bass lines.
This version is stunning - I saw it ❤❤
👍😎
This would have been a 5* album for me if it wasn't for f**kin Seamus!
@@lemming9984 😂
I’ll never forget those pigs literally exploding out of the sides of the stage. My left arm hurt by the end of the show because my best friend kept slapping the crap out of my arm, saying “Look at that! Look! Look!” :D
So you love A Pillow Of Winds? If the album only had One of These Days and Echoes I would be content. BUt, hey, they experimented and that's fine.@@lemming9984
Fun fact Guy Pratt was dating Richard Wright's daughter when this was filmed, they got married a couple of years later
This! Poetic irony...
And, unfortunately, got unmarried a few years later...
Check out the version of this song on the Delicate Sound of Thunder video. Much better solo by Gilmour
I got to see this concert at foxborogh stadium in 1994. Best show I have ever seen.
❤ another great song choice and another great reaction
Thank you Lisa! That means the world to me 😊
Pink Floyd Live, there is nothing like it. I got to see The Wall in 1980, still the highlight of my concert career. Saw David 3 times solo and Roger 5 times.
I love this so much! Appreciate your serious reactions too
Guy Pratt looks so young here
I saw this Tour, it was the best out of many concerts I've ever seen! The two Pigs were inflatables and deflated and fell to the floor at the end of the song
You're right about Richard Wright. Just listen to the final part of Shine On You Crazy Diamond on Wish You Were Here. Or the keys on See Emily Play. Or his melancholy vocal on Remember A Day, written by him also. He was their secret weapon.
I saw this tour in Toronto!
Lee, you may yet have a chance to see Gilmour; he may tour this coming year since he has an album coming out. I've seen him solo and also Roger Waters solo and both are worth seeing. I saw Pink Floyd 3 times with Gilmour, Waters, Wright and Mason. Unbelievable! I took my kid to see Waters and Gilmour, so she's a lucky young person.
Yeah you right: 1994 was a great year!!! But to late to see this live!!! I'm so sorry for you!!!!
Now try the Pulse concert finale: Run Like Hell, and you'll experience something even more spectacular.
Rick gave the psychedelic colours of the sound on this band and i agree with you...
Since you're a big Rick Wright fan, I suggest you check out the live version of "Wearing the Inside Out". One of the few songs where he's lead singer. It's a wonderful song.
HEY TWO PIGS, ONE ON EACH SIDE… ANIMALS AT MONTREAL, DELICATE SOUND OF THUNDER AT OTTAWA N DIVISION BELL AT MONTREAL WERE ALL INCREDIBLE EPIC CONCERTS I WAS SO LUCKY TO EXPERIENCE. ANIMALS FOR-SURE WAS THE BEST. GREAT REACTIONS 👏 ROCK ON 👊🖖
I had this concert on video tape in the 90s. I literally wore out the tape. They regretted actually filming this on tape instead of film, especially when it came to remastering it
Nick put together a “Saucerful of Secrets” band to play the pre-Dark Side material live again.
His solo album “Fictitious Sports” is a lot of fun, though it’s really a Carla Bley album in disguise.
This was a good live version, I always liked the album version, the light show was good on this.
If you want to see Nick Mason you need to watch one of these days live in Pompeii 1972
Been there 4x done that!
First time seeing the Floyd was in the mid 70's at a football stadium in Florida whereby they were doing the complete Animals album and they had the Pig floating around in the sky with some Dark Side thrown in. They were brilliant as always. Charlie Daniels opened for them...what a bizarre combination huh.
I always enjoy the little smiles and glances at each other when they play. The PF musicians always seem to be enjoying themselves immensely, it's like the audience is almost secondary. Gilmour was just so good that Mason and Wright never got the attention and acclaim they deserved.
Hi there. Love your Reactions!
Something maybe you don't know...
Jon Carin has played for both Pink Floyd and Roger Waters for over 40 years. Has toured with both many times...
The Pig is the one who sang the only line of the song, he seeks revenge for all the bacon and ham man has eaten.
Heh. I saw that tour at Bobby Dodd Stadium where Ga Tech played. They have aluminum bleachers because it's outdoors. It was around 40 degrees. My ass froze. Longest concert ever back in the day when beer was around 4.5%. Not enuff alcohol to keep you above 32°.
That was a great one. 🎉
This was the first set closer. The next set was entire dark side of the moon and 3 encores. Another crazy Gilmour surprise is KEEP TALKING live pulse.
They used to have a flying pig... anatomically correct, flying drone pig. It would fly around the venue. People complained about the pig's bouncing manhood so they switched to the pigs you see in this video.
Nick Mason was the one who says "One of these days I am going to cut you into little pieces" He said he said it in a falsetto voice, and they played with the tape speed until they got the sound they wanted.
Need a Carl Palmer drum solo ya know he just turned 74 and is touring back east!!!
Hey Lee! Kick ass song! Looks like you used the version from Pulse!!! 👍🎵🎼🎶🔈🔉🔊😎
I was at one of these days, ooops, concerts at Earl’s Court. ❤
@@mattleppard1964 Cool.👍😎
Mason has one of the world's great Ferarri collections.
