That solo felt like a tomb opening after 5000 years. My god…. That was intense
Yeah, they did the major scale solo in the middle shorter, and the opened up on the minor scale solo at the end.
Very good, but I think the keyboard and guitar bridge section they did on War Pigs was more creative.
What a lovely comment, this.
LOL for sure
In a weird way it almost made me imagine like, is this what it would sound like if Neil Young played it?
💯touches my very soul
also sexy af
I love the way he plays the first solo note-for-note, perfectly. Then the second, he just goes off into the stratosphere. Kind of like saying - "Sure, I can do it exactly like he did, if that's what you want. But is that what you really want? Maybe what you really want is..."
Oui, c'est ce que l'on veut, max au maximum!
brilliant perspective... thank you, music fan.
This guy has his own style guys.
@markdavis1358: That's not why we that. It's a token of respect for the original song, as well as giving the listener's ear a chance to settle into the groove before you 'branch out'.
@@Friend_of_the_One-Eyed_Ladies it can be both, and i think it likely it is some combination of the two
Can we talk about that DRUMMER???
He nails it, just NAILS IT… 😘❤️❤️
Reuben is outstanding 🥁✨🥁
... the bass player too!
Yup - takes a lot to draw attention away from a Max solo ! The camera man did a great job of visually representing what really was a duet rather than a guitar solo.
@5oranger @jipsigal The bass and drums lent so much 2 the 2nd guitar solo. It was smooth when needed be. Then they built it 2 a post modern tribal operatic climax.
Mofo never breaks a sweat.
I don’t understand how this video only currently has a little over six hundred thousand views. This should be in the millions
I have said it numerous times, but I don't mind to say it again. You guys are easily one of the most talented bands of this generation. That was the best reinterpretation of Gilmour's iconic solo I have ever heard, but you managed to not just pay homage to the original but also make it distinctly your own. Fantastic
absolutely right 🎉
Agreed!
@@nickheineke5054 indeed
Shame they're not much known.
Incredibly talented yes, but I was during the solo thinking about what makes Gilmoure so very special, and I came up with: "Less is more" in this case. Just one man's opinion.
That guitar solo ascended me from this mortal plain and into the reality between realities, drifting forever more.
This man is comfortably numb
nice line! could have been in the song ..
One could say you were S Q U E E Z E D
Heroin is a hell of a drug 😆
@@KrysLynne82 Careful with that
I’ve seen David Gilmour play this solo 5 times. And he’s awesome, obviously. But the fact that you reinterpreted the solo rather than copy it was literally awe inspiring.
Jaysus .. Half way through that guitar solo i jumped up and threw my shoes out the window .. now i have to go and get them .. What an Amazing Band.
😂😂😂
Lol!
Love it! 😂
I rarely see a drummer and guitarist who feed off of each other like that. It adds so much to the already insane solos. Killer stuff as always.
It's an old school drumming secret - always follow the guitarist.
I’d argue the bass is what’s keeping them both grounded after getting outside the box but what do I know?
@@Ash_Hudson AMEN!!! PREACH!!!!
When a drummer pays attention to the solo and vibes with it makes ALL the difference in the world for a guitarist!!!
My best friend and I learn to play guitar and drums in my basement decades ago. We aren’t on the level of these guys but when you hit that zone it’s like telepathy. It’s an incredible feeling. It’s like you’re not on planet earth anymore.
Max at the end being like, "Yeah, I could go again," and everybody being like "NOOOO"
Best cover EVER!!!!That guitar solo was so beautiful it made me cry.
Yes me too 😢pain just came out there
Max steals the show as always but the drummer is always just quietly being perfect on every song.
The balls it takes to cover some of the most iconic songs and solos ever made- time and time again- while creating something distinctly unique but also paying homage to the original are of a size I will never know. can't get enough of this band. masterful, once again
From all the Pink Floyd fans out there, thank you!
The guitarist omg, the guy literally rips his soul in every solo
One of the greatest covers ever, Max is amazing…
The first thing everybody thinks about when listening to this song is David Gilmour's profound artistic expression in his solos and if the guitarist covering them will be able to even come close to that level of "feeling", and whether those licks will be honored or just repeated. Max does as good a job at honoring David's work as anyone possibly could. From a sound guy, the mixing was exceptional. From a Pink Floyd junkie, this rendition was special in every way.
Agreed. The mix is outstanding. Max is one of the only guitarists out there who could play this, honor Gilmour, and add his own twist and keep it super tasty and with all the feeling. Just incredible.
I’d love to hear Chris Buck’s take on the solo as well but this was as unreal of an homage as any I’ve ever seen!
I thought the guitar work was a little lack luster
@@beatsbydrew8930
As a guitarist I agree with you... both sound and style don't fit the song.
Until now I have always found his style an added value while here in my opinion it doesn't fit well.
Excellently stated 💯 agree
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Maximillian is the best guitarist on the scene these days. His natural abilities, technique, tone, and influences are just top of the game in the guitar world. Love this entire band, and look forward to seeing them live again. Well done ladies and gents.
too bad he surrounds himself with high school level musicians and this no talent lead vocal when he could be great...
@@charwest5892 I can assure you the keyboard player and bass player are not high school level musicians. More importantly what good comes from rude comments like this and why would you want to project that negativity out to the world? Why do you view the videos if you despise the band? I can only imagine Max knows what is best for himself and his career, and he already is great.
@@michaelshearer3559 because they will read it and maybe lose weight or work harder on their craft rather than going for pomp and circumstance. And fine, they are cruise ship level. Except that was 10 years ago.
@@charwest5892Disagree. That keyboard player is really good. Check out some of their other videos. Singer has a good voice too.
@@charwest5892 yuk
Ok, that's the second solo by this guy that has absolutely made me cry and the drummer slapping right beside him. What a dynamic build!
For me, Pink Floyd is the greatest band if all time. With that being said, you did this song justice and was absolutely great.
There aren’t many guitarists who can get away with improvisation while playing one of the greatest guitar solos of all time…..but dang….you nailed it! Great job!!!!
OK, that solo was seriously next level.
Every time I hear this dude plays a guitar solo, he sounds like he's having the most ON day of his life, completely in the zone and channeling the music, good Lord is this phenomenal
I have never heard a rendition of Comfortably Numb this good, The main squeeze owns this, truly a great band !
The brass section is such a good addition!
Agree mate vital piece to the puzzle 👍🏼
Being a horn player of decades (🎷) it is ALWAYS good to see and hear REAL instruments and instrumentalist playing their parts vs some keyboard/synthesizer bullcrap! This ALWAYS should be done. Pay a real musician to do a real job! Amen!
"I'm down for one more." he said after playing the hell out of that 4 minute solo omg 😂what a champ! Love the guitar tone at 8:28 til the end.
And here I am thinking the Have A Cigar cover was the best solo I have ever heard. This is a new sonic level for this group. The feel was superb.
guitar solo is not about technique, it's about feeling, one of the best i've heard so far...
Agree
That chemistry between drummer and guitar player... Magical! 😍
I knew this was going to be a killer rendition, but the fact that I teared-up twice during the solo speaks volumes. I can't remember the last time a song made me that emotional.
And he teased us with the higher chords til the end. Perfect right?! Tears here too
Yall buncha cry babies!!! Lmao...seriously though, if you are moved to tears...it doesnt get any better does it? 🔥🔥🤟🤟
@@JK-js2td it just makes you human
I will tear up all my with you🥲
These guys didnt cover a song. They played a masterpiece. As a Floyd’s super fan , i approve the MAIN SQUEEZE.
So much soul in that solo. I think that's exactly how it would sound if Prince ever played it.
That second solo was DEFINITELY Pink Floyd worthy! Usually when people create their own second solo for the song, they butcher it. This was done perfectly! Thank you for sharing this.
Everytime I come to the comments of Main Squeeze videos I feel as if I meet with true friends. Do you feel it too? They have THE SOUND that carries us from thrilling pleasure to deepest ache to feelings that words cannot touch. What a gift to us all.
P.S. Awakening by Jefferson Starship next? 😁🙏
We need to talk about how happy the guy on the keyboard looks! I need his energy in life :D
So good my neighbors asked me to play it again.
Пацаны слушаю вас.... и поражаюсь, как из культовой песни можно сделать фантастически вкусную вещь при всём блистательно уважительно к авторам.
Нет больше слов...
Supper!
Черт возьми, слушаю вас и поражаюсь таланту вашей команде!!!
Успехов, guys!!!
That solo was out of this world.
This guitarist is on another level! Nothing I can say will do him justice! Damn.
Oh man the intro... it alost brings me to tears.
Love from the UK.
Never heard of you until today... And this got fwded to me. Being a HUGE fan of Pink Floyd and with Comfortably Numb being my no.1 favourite song of all time, I can safely say that this has more than done the song justice. I never thought any cover of this song could capture the brilliance of Gilmour's emotion poured out on his strat, but today's the day I have been proven wrong. Count me as your fan - this is a fantastic cover and you all should be proud!
Check out Have A Cigar on their channel. Just as astounding.
You have to check out their cover of Have a Cigar. Another phenomenal solo by Max.
Only think makin me sad is not being able to see Rob SLAYIN that bass during the last couple of minutes
i havent felt this way since the first time i heard the original...holy shit you folks are phenomenal
Man, everyone’s talking about the guitar solo - as a fellow guitarist, yea that was stellar but that drummer led him to the promise land. He was beautiful to witness, with a drummer backing you up like that…it really opens up the creativity. I wish they would pan over to the bassist more, those lines he was putting down were great.
I would say more about how much Max crushed this, but since so many in the comments have said all I'd say, I want to give major kudos to the bassist Rob "Skywalker" Walker: the way he perfectly complemented Max whilst staying lock-tight with Reuben (drums), was a work of mastery. The runs and riffs he played brought a depth and richness to the performance, and he, Ben (keys) and Reuben took what would have just been just a fantastic solo and made it truly, massively epic. Corey (vocals) did Roger justice, and as always tied everything together with his buttery smooth vocals. 10/10 cover, it's dangerous to touch Floyd but these guys did it with such finesse, gracefulness, and honor. Forever a fan!!
Love the fact every video the keyboard player can’t wipe the smile off his face. So enjoyable neither can we!
That’s why his name is Smiley
I don't even know what to say, to be honest...What I love with this one and with "Have A Cigar" is that you don't try to copycat David Gilmour, you make it your own, and then you fucking own it. That was insane...f'n thank you for that passionate gift of soul.
I'm high af right now, fyi.
"Have a Cigar" was the first time I ever heard of these guys. All of their covers are true to the originals and powerful in their own right. I'm enjoying exploring their catalogues for new music
@@Raw_Dawgs6409 The Have a cigar is the only cover of Floyd that I think is better than the original. That solo!!!
Nowhere near comparing his performance on "Have a Cigar" to this one....that doesn't do it justice at all.
@@SALX808 I thought the same exact thing! That was the first time I heard these guys too.
I think even if Gilmour himself heard this he’d be blown away by those guitar skills and the heart behind it. Outstanding
Just when I thought Gilmour had squeezed every last note out of that solo, you guys manage to both make an incredible tribute to the source material, but go beyond and push it to your own unique take. Holy shit that was beautiful. The Floyd should be proud. 🤘🏻
I uhhh.... I didn't think anyone could ever take Gilmour's solo and really add anything, so I figured most people would just try to play his solo note for note and here Max comes along and just plays something magical AGAIN. This is just beyond incredible. Max needs to sit in with Goose!!! Also, HUGE shout out to whoever engineered and mixed this as well as the entire band just being incredible as always. Was lucky enough to catch you guys right before Covid a few years back. Would love to see you again!
A 4:40, debut de l'apotheose, un feu d'artifice d'emotion dans l'air ethere du surnaturel. WOW WOW et WOW again. Un trip merveilleux!
C'était juste parfait comme adaptation. Gilmour revisité avec brio par Max.
The guitarist stole the show🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He usually does
That second solo though, I mean Gilmour's will always be king but fuck Max absolutely smashed it in his own way.
Don't think there will be a better competitor to the original than this. Magical.
I turn 60 next month and after watching this shredding I feel like I just got an early gift. 🎉
The guitar player has a seemingly endless bag of ideas. Impressive to say the least.
This guitarist never disappoints. Every solo is outstanding.
I don’t care if that was the 1st or 432nd take..that was performed as passionately perfect as it gets!
OMG the trumpet and horn are contributing so well to the song atmosphere!. And that guitar solo...wow
Bein a horn player (🎷) of decades...i ❤ when bands dont cheap out...and use REAL horns...and not synthesized ones!!!!!
Right on. Their choices of added musicians is always spot on.
I knew Max is one of those top-of-the-ladder guitarists out there when I first heard this band years ago.
I am a huge Pink Floyd fan, and typically not many on this earth can do Pink Floyd justice, but if David Gilmour gets a chance to see this, he would be damn proud! That was sick!!!
Max standing in the back quietly for the first 2/3 of the performance and then setting everything on fire at the end has Prince playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps energy. When it's not his spotlight, he needs none of it, when it IS his moment, I couldn't imagine the moment belonging to anyone else.
There are about 5 people on earth who can play that solo differently than the recording and enhance the magic instead of ruin it, and one of the is David Gilmour himself. Max is another. You've got the magic, man. It's not technique or knowledge, though you have those things too, but it's just that magic that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up from only the sound of an electric guitar.
Thanks for reminding me why I play.
Reuben putting in work. His drumming adds so much to Max's outstanding work.
Wonderful, the arrangements, the subtle accents of the tambourine, the choirs, the brass section, the understanding and complicity between the drummer and the guitarist, THAT GREAT PAIR OF HI-HATS... everything was amazing.
Thank you. And add the bass player and call them one hell of a trio. Geez
We are really lucky to have you guys with us today.
This band is my walking music!
holy smokes, I was not ready for that. Jaw-dropping interplay with the drums on that solo. melting into tears.
Once again, two things I love Main Squeeze and Pink Floyd. And once again, Max gave me chills with an incredible solo - just like he did in Have a Cigar. Amazing, all of you. Many thanks.
That drummer and guitarist were locked. Amazing tone
That 2nd solo made sure that every viewer is now COMFORTABLY NUMB!!
Thanks for making us cry max...
guitar solo - wtf dude!!!! almost had tears in my eyes. Amazing job, guys!
That little bass action at around 3:45 really brought a smile to my face. awesome stuff
That solo was one of the best things I’ve ever seen or heard and the vibe him and the drummer have is just amazing,That performance was just stunning
Bass player ATE in the guitar solo
One of the most creative versions of this solo I’ve ever heard. I applaud you fine sir 👏
may i suggest Kfir Ochaion
@@panayiotiskyriacou5118 I’m well aware of Kfir’s talent but I appreciate the recommendation 👍
LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE⚡️⚡️
You guys have no idea how much I WAITED for this cover. since I discovered you four years ago with the Have A Cigar cover I knew you were something really special. every thing you guys make is absolutely amazing but this and Since I've Been Loving You, you have scale on a new level of talent and respect to the authors. I don't care if i have to wait for other five years or maybe a couple of weeks, but be sure I'll be one of the thousands (if not millions) viewers here and will keep sharing this amazing band.
Im here because Have a cigar cover too. Now, My favorite solo in outstanding stuff.
Definition of a face melting solo 🫠
Nailed it - again. Jiminy Christmas, that was perfect.
Y'ALL 🔥🔥🔥 This is amazing 👏 and I appreciate that (despite being an absolute monster player), your guitarist did the first solo note-for-note with the record. It's such an iconic solo so sticking with that was a great move. And then unleashing such creativity in the second solo, while still throwing in some of the more recognizable lines from Gilmour?!?! Incredible! I know i just gushed over the guitarist but honestly? AMAZING cover, by all involved!
So true. He always picks the right moments to stick to the original and the right moments to deviate. He did it on While My Guitar Gently Weeps and Since I've Been Loving You as well.
@@BedtimeDisaster totally Ando! I love how he incorporates some of original parts of the 2nd solo but yet makes it his own! Bravo 👏
no one's talking about the genius guy who mixed it so well.
Holy shit! thank you UA-cam for showing me this masterpiece
My ears and soul were on fire during that last solo! you guys are certified legends!
Damn.......again the ending solo so good can feed 3 families on Christmas eve
You know the band is fire when the solo section goes off like that - and the guitar player is still down for one more take at the end. dedication to the craft baby
Drummer is the mvp here! guitar solo is lovely but the drums re-imagined are lovely, real driving! really good cover lads!!
In...fucking...credible. Max is out here one-upping himself yet again.
The Main Squeeze is easily one of the most talented bands out there today. Every cover, every collab, and all of their original work is dynamite.
You can see the joy in Reuben's face as he gets to hammer the crap out of those drums! Loved it!
Everyone talks on how Max steals the fucking performance (which he fucking does!) but all the band performed heavenly. The dialog between the guitar and the drums on the second solo is just astonishing. Thanks guys!
This is an OUTRAGE ! How dare you take this song and turn it into this !!!! MY GOD YOU ARE BLOODY FANTASTIC. Magnificent- Do well and god bless.
i love The Main Squeeze. I am well versed in having my ears melted by them. This was EXCESSIVELY ear-melty even for their standards. Woah.
The way that Max and the drummer battles is wild. It really contributes to the build up of the peak of the song/guitar solo and really feeds both musicians that energy to use their imaginations and creativity within the song 🤯
Max ain’t even on earth when he plays these solos. physically he’s here but spiritually he’s transcending into a random astral plane in the universe.
5 goosebumps in a single guitar solo. Awesomeness!
Just indescribable awesomness
I'm still trying to transcribe the Have a Cigar solo and now this???? The things Max makes me do
Jesus H. Christ, what a tremendous version of the final solo... O M G
When you can see the most played part is the guitar solo, you know it's a damn good guitarist.
Some of Gilmour's most beautiful solos in this one. Well done.
i swear to god that's one of the best rhythm sections i've ever heard...........bass, drum are sharing a brain........and Max............he's just Max.......nuff said right?
That guitar is doing its damnedest to get out of Max's hands, but somehow he's got it tamed.
Incredible job.
Best comment!
Holy shit! The guitar and drums combo is crazy
This is like hearing an old song for the first time again. Brilliant.
