[@otakupirates]

I like Eddie Van Halen's reason for loving David Gilmore. "David Gilmore is the benchmark of less being more. He has proved that shredding and fast playing is not the benchmark of mastery level. Gilmore never wastes a note; he builds his solos like a painter; every note, every bend, every tonal inflection has merit...David's solos paint a picture in the minds of his listeners. Something that really is a testament of his talent as a guitar player"

It seemed to me that I was the ONLY ONE who got on this! I was buzzing off him.

The man is early 70's here cool as ya like, no bouncing about giving it ego as most) I had to bring it to every person's attention I've watched it with. As one post here says yea look who he's playing with. I said that smile is him saying"WOW I'm Drumming with DAVID GILMOUR...!!!!! Soon as I seen him. Love this version

I remember asking him, as he lay in his bed, unable to move much or speak much from the cancer that had spread through his body, if he wanted to listen to some Pink Floyd. He just simply smiled at me, eyes still a brilliant blue, and nodded. I am glad I got to enjoy this song with him, before he slipped intro the ever after, 2 days later.

[@bernlin2000]

Lol, right? I had another song queued up after this one, but I had to close it...there's just no point lol.

[@michaeldavidson1081]

Incredible, isn't it? There are three superlative things in play here. His voice, his guitar, and his empathy. Each would stand on its own, to have them all in one unit is sublime. What a talent!

[@alexisguerrero3501]

LawlietNao i agree!! is imposible 😟

[@rskirk22]

One of the best, if not the best, live guitar solos ever.

[@danielmoore62]

This band has potential.

[@JoyceBarrett-tq9yw]

Ya think?

[@MrZuul25]

I love the drummer in this set. He looks so happy to be there and in his head, he is thinking "Wow, I am playing drums for David Fuckin Gilmour"

[@Shd0ws_]

MrZuul25 yesssss

[@yodachef]

scrolled down to see if there was a comment about the drummer ! totally agree !!

[@momentarylapse1362]

Exactly what I was thinking throughout the video. Also the other vocal guys and girls were enjoying it and thinking the same as well.

[@JoseSilva-cv2wf]

It's Steve DiStanislao he's been playing with David even before On an Island, but yeah he looks happy, who wouldn't?

[@dennisvanschaijk]

Something awesome was created there, and he was right in the middle of it

[@rubenacevedo4997]

Simply the best solo in the history of humanity.

[@jameshayes1840]

Agreed. It encompasses all of his blues roots along with all of his own, unique voice and skills.

[@Spirigold]

History of rock, perhaps, but there's Pat Metheny in jazz-rock, and Mike Stern, did you hear about that guy?

[@roseyk7677]

Absolutely agree 👍

[@antreb15]

Hmmm! Debatable. Far too many to compare with. Gary Moore played a few.

[@MyriophyllumTuberculatum]

to me high hopes solo is better

ALL SHOULD LISTEN TO THIS

[@andiputranto4036]

You too

[@zyriuz2]

@@jeanfrancoismonier thats right my guy, i feel exactly the same but im just 27 and yet i really want to experience David Gilmour live some day, i just love all they did as a band and what they did later also in terms of live performances it would be thrilling and amazing to meet fellow pink floyd fans and just enjoy a concert together with them :)

[@kimburke8033]

At 62 I always come back to the beginning.

[@CraigKerwood-mk7hh]

Admittedly, when I was a teen I wasn't a huge Pink Floyd fan, but things happen when you get older and especially when you pick up the guitar and you learn to appreciate great guitarist. Now, I believe these are the single greatest rock solos of all-time. David Gilmour is easily one of my all-time greats. This song is a masterpiece.

[@MrMaKeMeDiNnEr]

All i want in my life is to feel what that drummer feels.

[@LibertyLeslie]

It is pretty raw

How many people can say they played with David Gilmor

lol no kidding, he's having the time of his life. I'm guessing this is his favourite song

btw - actually, it's not a concert hall, it's the Amphitheatre of Pompeii... ;-)

I can’t get enough of this solo. When it’s over, I start it again and again. What a masterpiece!

It is impossible not being moved by this guitar solo. No matter how many times I hear it.

An average blues soloing to me. But still good enough for a late 60s band.

[@darrenmcmahon4215]

Absolutely! I get chills every time. The solos cry out to me.

[@tylerwalschaert5801]

I love that the drummer absolutely cannot stop smiling. He knows exactly what it means to be playing this song. Words cannot describe what we are listening to here.
