David Gilmour - Comfortably Numb in Gdansk Poland 2006

[@lespaulstratjam]

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!

[@rhoffner18]

I agree, i think I have watched them all, but this version is the best in my opinion.

[@mathmut80]

@@rhoffner18 of course it is. Définitivement!

[@tallpaul7130]

Damn straight. No argument.

[@ЕвгенийХаритонов-й3ю]

@@rhoffner18 and I think that the best version is Live8 reunion concert

[@miro115]

@@ЕвгенийХаритонов-й3ю Yes, of course, i agree with you 100%

[@bebopsky]

I get the most satisfying ASMR from this version. A virtuoso guitar performance, backed by an orchestra!

[@vin2216]

My God can you imagine the joy of being part of the orchestra here....has to be one of life's high points

[@mathmut80]

Also the joy to be in the crowd. I witnessed this in olympia on Paris ! Goose bumps for 2 hours.

[@desireecoad1238]

The best live performance of Com Numb everrr!

[@jacekkleban5jl116]

Pompeii 2016,check it out;)

[@didierthierry320]

He betters himself every tour… Love him!

[@Steve-q6l4v]

It couldn't be, they missed the pinprick.

Jamás saldrá otro músico,tan auténtico ,tan bueno con la guitarra, que cante con esa calidez , maravilloso David Gilmour, escuchemosle ,disfrutemos de él,no saldra nadie con esa grandiosidad ... David Gilmour... único ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@paulofladf]

Gilmour É GIGANTE!!!

[@dougwebster1813]

ive been a guitarist since 1966 and I say this performance of CNumb was perfection! The emotion that comes through his fingers is stunning! Probably the greatest rock solo ever, especially that night at Gdansk! And if you dont believe just ask me!

[@petersmyczek2297]

That solo always gets me, what a masterpiece amongst masterpieces of music.

[@ikymagoo]

heart warming and heart breaking to see and hear Richard Wright on this amazing version of Comfortably Numb! love it!

[@andih7276]

Byłem. The Best. Pozdrawiam z Polski 🇵🇱 🇵🇱

[@haraldchristiansen6942]

Great musicians surround themselves with great musicians. I absolutely agree that this is the best live version. One chance to get it right. Rest in peace mr.wright.

[@preetambose4390]

The skills he has perfected that night, that was outrageous!!! What a song, what a solo, what a band!!

[@risingoneagleswings1776]

Unbelievable. No words! The orchestra sounds amazing behind it all.

[@John_Nelson_Darby]

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!”

[@brandondouglass8287]

This gives me the chills and a big smile everytime I experience this song. Absolutely amazing!!! What an era to be alive.

[@marcusliddington1491]

This band came into my life in 1970, when i bought meddle...i have been through a lot in my life, both good and bad, but this most cerebral band have been a constant...i never cease to be amazed by the sheer cleanliness and soul of Dave Gilmour's guitarwork....thank you Floyd..

[@richardkarakostov4638]

I just want to say that it was a complete privilege listening to that.

[@patriotpride16t]

This performance of Comfortably Numb is a 10 minute Orgasm. Hands down the Greatest Live Performance in music history! (Am I a bit over the top? Watch this performance and get back to me!)

[@d1rtydan194]

the pulse one is even more of an orgasm IMO

[@mcw_333]

Awesome performance, pure musical joy, as is the Pulse performance which I had the privilege of seeing first hand. 🙏

[@piotrgurbisz4263]

Yes

[@hockeyteam1954able]

You can put Gilmore out there playing this with a kazoo band and it would be incredible!

[@derbyshirebirdwatcher6054]

Love the ‘David is concentrating’ facial expression!

[@VivaZeBone]

Best live version ever, anywhere, anytime, by anyone. I came through my eyes somehow. How is that ever possible?

[@nigelpowton9509]

Pure sodding perfection. This cannot be bettered. Every time I watch this I'm ripped to bits. Stunning, haunting, beautiful!

[@Massimo_Bettin]

This is unbelievable and eternal art...

[@desireecoad1238]

The Best live version of this song. DG leaves a piece of his soul on that stage

[@Caroline-xe8bo]

Hello, Pink Floyd was definitely the most talented group of musicians ,ever composed!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL..

[@jonlindquist6532]

Best guitar solo ever

[@drjaymermelstein]

Amazing version amazing strings, amazing everything!!!

[@desireecoad7557]

The best live performance of this song, hands down! DG is in the zone! ❤️😎

[@peterharris38]

My brother died 2years ago from a terminal illness, but this track was our tune we played pool in a country pub in England and I always love listening to it, emotional but brilliant.

[@desireecoad7557]

It’s epic when you see David Gilmour playing guitar from the back while the smoke drifts 😎💫

[@carlosmcanino3826]

a masterpiece performance by Mr Gilmore , music like this will never die. It linger's in the air 4 ever

[@EduardoSouza-km9kh]

This song rocks like hell. Greetings from Brazil.

[@stevemorse108]

Best all time version...pure genius!!!!!!!!!

[@fm00078]

THIS OL FART began listening to music, early 50s. Yaaa, there was tunes before Elvis. Big Band era has it's memorable melodies but NONE holds up against most of Pink Floyd's (RW.DG.RW.& NM.) greatest VERY moving compositions. I was honored they put a small piece of mine in one tune. "Like, WOW man & FAR OUT"

[@emimor5295]

Absolutely the best rock and psichedelic group in the history of music.

[@TheDon444]

When I'm having a music-playing session at home, I always have to leave this to last as Rock doesn't get any better than this.

[@monumentlandscapeservicesl6464]

Makes my hair stand up every time.

[@tommybruner01]

Unbelievable. No words.

[@mcorleone1942]

What I wouldn't give to go back in time and see this live. Hey ho!!

[@zaimzaim8947]

Incredible performance. David Gilmour for ever

How insane is to listen Comfortably Numb over and over again? And if something distract me, start the song over again?

[@Reppie.]

Touched my soul so beautiful.

[@haraldchristiansen6942]

Me too, I tear up every time I hear and watch this video.

[@cybershadow58]

I don't believe they get any better than this!

[@kathif17]

❤❤ the nest performance ever of this song period ❤thank you ❤

[@simonbellamy67]

Wow. I was about to dispute the claim that this version of comfortably numb was the G.O.A.T But then I listened to it. Nuffield said just wow!

[@mat4410]

So intense as this was likely the last performance with Richard Wright before his passing.

[@alissondiane3864]

PQP. melhor versão. Sinistra como merece a música e redentora como merece o solo. Pink Floyd sem Gilmour, não é nada.

[@piyushsopory5817]

The best version

[@jjkendy8908]

best live version ever ... i keep rewinding 4:32 to 8:30

[@desireecoad2233]

The perfect performance

[@denisrulev5405]

The God took the guitar that night

[@Governor_William_J_Lepetomane]

By far and away Gilmour's best guitar solo. Pretty sure the conductor at one point looked over and was hoping he would just keep playing because it was so exceptional.

[@griselmachado7434]

Genio!!!!!! Bendiciones desde Uruguay🙏❤

[@julianamado9878]

I feel bad for people who will never get to hear this.

[@steiroccenroll2070]

This is a be(a)st solo of all versions..mammamiabella!!!!

[@ismaeldonascimentoteixeira3329]

Bom

[@robmullins1427]

Richard Wright on vocals just puts the cherry on top. And the solos…….

[@reynaldoreal320]

Esta pieza es una obra maestra por donde se le vea, la orquestación, la vibra, el sentimiento que cada uno de los integrantes le pone y como si faltará algo, DG nos deleita con la mejor interpretación del solo que esta pieza contiene, además, escuchar esta versión y leer todos los comentarios, realmente hace que salgan las lagrimas de los ojos, saludos a todos los floydianos del mundo, sin duda, esta es una pieza que nos marca a todos!!! Gracias David Gilmour, Richard Wright por esta excelente interpretación.

[@desireecoad7557]

The best version of this song ever 😎💫

[@idum01]

No sorry dude, the best is the uncut pulse version.

[@dfolt]

Performed in the town of my father, and my father's father, and my father's father's father..... Always liked Comfortably Numb, but this version with an orchestra for sure is the best version, and the guitar solo is just ethereal.

[@lfazoglem]

Master Gilmour, you are the best!

[@nadeemahmad8941]

I cried so bad watching this

[@GFConsultores-j1c]

Adoro esta cancion, y mas aun esta version..!!

[@XxMrRoachxX]

Personally, I like the Pompeii 2016 version much better. Much more finessed and perfected. He was 70 years old in 2016!!!

[@patsyhobbs3243]

Class man pure Class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fanks

oh damn! lucky polish people of Gdansk !

One of my best ever.

[@cenoh]

that one dude with the dislike though get a life dude

[@MrStevecro]

lol why does it even worry you what others think?... and it's 14 now I look up there

[@JakelaneGuitar]

My favourite song of all time no matter which version

[@wmgtc2681]

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.

[@3butalcomp3]

heart is pounding

[@kellywilson8440]

Listen to that strat sing ! , 90 percent of the crowd have no idea what this is !

This is the best solo.....end of debate

RIP Rick

[@cristianodimatteo]

There is music and then there are Pink Floyd.

[@nestorramosdelgadillo8768]

No tienes comparación David eres el mejor ...

[@ageckomiller]

God damn kids. The music makes me sick to my stomach and I want to vomit. My 2 1/2 year old daughter likes Bruno mars and I gag every time I walk in the living room and its on tv. The only thing keeping me sane is the fact that I can crank this every time I'm alone or without her because of the volume alone. Thank you David and Rick. And roger and Nick, and Sid. Not here but still made this possible.

[@Jay-bf8yp]

Bruno Mars has got some talent at least. Could be much worse!

[@raphaelbiondo8053]

6:37 is the most intense thing I’ve ever heard

[@desireecoad7557]

Keep family close during the Coronavirus. Health and happiness, DG. 😎🇬🇧 🤗(hug, but let me wash me hands first!)

[@rodrigofarias9852]

I still do not understand how security does not turn to applaud xD

Sorry but Guilmore vocal is much better than Wright.Anyway this is what makes my day everyday;)

[@Piero-q7j]

Insrrivabile

[@tomherbert4264]

Probably one of the very best guitar solo's ever, the lyrics are bad either

[@huguesvanreet3270]

Two another solos are vers great too: Stairway to heaven 1974 by Jimmy Page and Catch the Rainbow by Ritchie Black more 1976/1977. Three Amazon guitarists
