There are those who play guitar... And then there's David Gilmour.

[@scottmgso]

[@VickersDoorter]

A bit like Top Gear's "Cool Wall" from the Clarkson days. David Gilmour has is own section of wall (pun not intended) at the top end, with a large gap down to the next person.

[@AnthonyWilliams-ew3wp]

I always tear up at the second solo.

[@coot1925]

I was there. I don't mind admitting that I spent most of the gig with tears running down my face. You don't watch or listen to Floyd, you live it. It took me 3 days to recover from the emotional experience. I was drained. I'm 62 now & I will never forget the feelings I experienced that night. I will take them to my grave. Check out "The great gig in the sky" from the same concert (remixed & re-edited) if you want to see what the backing vocalists can do.

Yeah, "The Great Gig in the Sky" is epic.

[@nedrini1055]

There are many versions of this live performance, but this in my opinion is the absolute best

[@VickersDoorter]

Even this one had a chunk of the solo edited out as he did go off key a few times. But you can't take it away from him that this was THE most stellar guitar solo of all time.

[@OraJarrels]

Yes, over a minute of the solo missing from this version. 😢

[@return2earthvideochannel]

Correct

[@VickersDoorter]

I saw this 1994 show four times where this was filmed - London's Earl's Court (including the first night of the run when a large section of seating collapsed). What many might not appreciate from a technical point-of-view is that Marc Brickman's lighting design was not only stupendous, but beautiful - particularly given the technical confines of DMX lighting control 30 years ago. The "Mr Screen" truss flipping forward and descending to envelope David Gilmour in a blinding pool of light was staggering to see and the huge mirror ball fanning open top and bottom simply took your breath away. Nowadays, where there's the budget, designers throw literally everything at it, but I've not seen anything in the last 30 years, yet alone of late, that tops the excitement and sheer creativeness of the production and sound quality I witnessed at those 1994 shows.

[@kennethcurtis6648]

I was there on the 19th and a friend of mine managed to see it 5 times, he slept on the street so that he could save his money for the tickets ( bought at the gates outside).

[@Ray_2112]

I'm unfortunately too young to have been there live in 1994 as well, but since I saw the Pulse DVD the first time, this is to me the most beautiful stage ever! It's just incredible what Brickman did rhere, that's not just a light show, but art imo. It's already so impressive on DVD, I can only imagine how it must have been seeing it in front of you. I finally saw David Gilmour live in Rome a month ago which was a dream come true and Brickman again did a great job, especially during "Sorrow", and the lasers went absolutely crazy during CN, yet the 1994 stage can't really be surpassed I think. Everybody who has seen it in 1994 is very lucky.

[@VickersDoorter]

@@Ray_2112 I'm envious you saw David Gilmour in Rome recently. By the time I heard about the shows in London it was sold out and half-decent tickets on the secondary market were a staggering £1000-£4000! But yes, 1994 will never fade from my memory and I do appreciate my good fortune for having been there and indeed, seeing The Wall shows at the same venue in both 1980 and 1981.

[@andrewskivington6453]

The copper lasers they used were the first application outside of the military, super powerful.

[@Jeffrichbell]

I was there that night.. I was about 20ft to the left of the collapsed stand. Thought it was a sound effect at the start of the show......until the lights came on. A guy I worked with at the time was walking up the stairs as the stand collapsed around him. We obviously blamed it on him. He was a rather large gentleman 😂

[@dalesandt8543]

I am 76 years old, saw FLOYD LIVE 5 times, along with about 200 other rock bands concerts in my life time and FLOYD WAS by far the most unique mind-blowing bands ever. But this is a new found thing for me seeing young folks enjoying the best rock bands and music ever created... I am American and saw many concerts in Atlanta, Georgia, N.Y.C., and other Southern towns. It was a fantastic Era to live and enjoy great great rock bands, that will be enjoyed and live on by young folks turned on, exposed to their music ❤❤❤

[@thomassanchez-oo6sb]

Greatest Live Performance ever. Even to this day…..✌🏼❤️

[@lindaulloa4786]

David plays with such emotion! Eric Clapton was asked what it's like to be the best guitar player in the world and he answered, "I wouldn't know, you would have to ask David Gilmour about that!"

One of the greatest.....NOT THE GREATEST...ALL FANBOYS SAY that

[@GeorgeStevensLuthier]

I saw them in London on that tour. Makes me cry every time I watch this track back. Never get bored with it, it's truly epic. So fortunate it was captured on film, possibly the greatest guitar solo ever filmed.

[@angharaddenby3389]

I was at that concert (and 2 other nights.) This was the second encore - by the time they got to this, they had been playing for just over two hours and IF that solo had been ten hours long, then nobody there would have minded . . . . or cared. You HAVE the dvd behind - please take the 3 hours to watch it in ONE sitting and make sure your lights and phone are both OFF! And at the very end of the song when the ball was fully open and the band had stopped playing - there remained that one bright light. This was a direct reference to the Crazy Diamond that was Syd Barrett,

[@kens32052]

Guy Pratt is the Bass player. He is also Richard Wright's son-in-law.

[@VickersDoorter]

And an incredibly nice person. During lockdown he did a number of videos relating to his bass contribution to Pink Floyd live and was very intelligent and entertaining.

[@showmoke]

WAS Richard Wright's son-in-law. They either divorced or separated a few years before Richard's passing.

[@MartinMcMartin]

This always brings a tear to my eyes, not because it's sad, it is just so damned good.

[@artsilva]

I finally saw David Gilmour perform this live just last week in LA. Being that it will be his last tour at age 78 I was brought to tears that an era is almost over, just as I do each time I watch the Pulse concert. David, Nick and Richard were still in their prime during the Pulse tour and it shows. David always sounds amazing even in his old age, a little missed note here and there but still honoring the originally recorded music but also emotionally driven as only he and his Stratocaster can. The sweet thing about this recent tour, David has his daughter Romany Gilmour doing backup vocals and also sings lead on a couple new songs they just released.

[@nedrini1055]

Arguably the best guitar solo in the history of guitar solos

[@jimclifford1241]

I disagree. It's not even arguable. ;-)

[@TomMazan]

I commented on David Gilmore's Facebook when he played and he gave me a thumb up to my comment. I saw the Pink Floyd Division Bell blimp when I rode my bike home from work. It was in front of me and almost straight above. It flew from my left to right. That's my type of synchronicity.

[@JosephHuntelvisnspiders]

@@jimclifford1241 Sorry, this is not the best solo as it's a compilation of at least 3 different nights on that tour. The original is on youtube, warts and all.

[@olivier7779]

Le solo de 2016 en Amérique du Sud est exceptionnel ! Il y a 35 minutes qu'ils ont filmé et partagé... C'est à Buenos Aires je crois (de mémoire), et évidemment la production faite par leurs équipes est parfaite !!! C'est du Live réel, pas une reconstitution comme dans Pulse (qui est déjà excellent ) ... A écouter absolument 👍

[@richardmillard5498]

David Gilmour still performs Comfortably Numb live. The bassist Guy Pratt (who incidentally was Richard Wright's son in law) still performs with him.

[@AntonioPerez-yl3dh]

I love seeing the younger generation experience Pink Floyd. My first concert was Pink Floyd in 1977 when they were touring for the animals album. We sat outside soldiers field in chicago from around 9am til around 4pm when they let us in ( general admission seating). If you can imagine a tail gate party of 30,000 Pink Floyd fans in the 70's. It was like we were all family. We all shared and helped each other. Since then I have experienced them in concert 2 other times. When Mr. Gilmore breaks into this solo live it's something that hits you in your soul.

[@archstantonainthere4526]

Tears were in sync with yours. Thanks for allowing us to share this experience together. Beautiful....

[@riveralph3687]

I still get choked up with joy every time I hear or watch this. David makes every note count and give you feel. Perfection!

[@Rackelhane]

David plugs his guitar into the heart of people. He is something else. It doesn't get better than this. Thank you guys. Cheers from a finn in Sweden.

[@Neil_BT]

I will never get tired of hearing this version of this song. Masterpiece. Add in to that the light show and it goes to another level. So beautifully choreographed with the music, the dark (second) solo tells a story, it's the drifting down with the doctor's injection to start, the near submission when the lights go out and the disco ball gets lit up, deciding to fight when the siren guitar notes start, running through to finally winning the fight by the end.

[@ErlendArntsen]

So glad I got to see this concert live, and before the age of cellphones.

[@julianalima7364]

The greatest solo of ALL times, in this version!!!! Unquestionable!!!

[@darylabbott2032]

This was 30yrs ago and visually as good as anything you will see today!

[@ImaDogTrainer]

I wasn't at this particular show, but saw this tour in Detroit. There are absolutely no words to describe what it was like being taken that far down the PF rabbit hole for the entirety of the concert. During the big solo on this song, you felt like David was playing directly to you and you were mesmerized. Every song takes you exactly where they want you to go and it was all encompassing. It was surreal to go back out the door into the "real" world and act like you weren't just in another space and time. Watch the whole concert on YT. It was verbatim the same show I saw.

[@geneadams4171]

Pink Floyd was the first live show i saw. It was in 1973. I was 13. The show featured The Dark Side Of The Moon in its entirety. It was that moment in life when I realized things could be great and spectacular. David's guitar solo at the end of this is great and spectacular.

[@paularnold6616]

You have to see it all. Epic.

[@KenCyrus-tb3nh]

That second guitar solo is simply breathtaking.

[@davesecrist2917]

Yes please play the whole experience, thank you! 👏

[@donaldriddle230]

The thing i love so much about David is the fact that he just stands there and plays from his soul! No running around, no climbing on the equipment or jumping about. He has always just stood there and just gave us everything! Yes indeed you should do tge entire concert. It is a Masterwork!

[@markh.7650]

What makes the outro performance by Gilmour so emotional is the distortion he adds at the point the ball opens. Since, in a simplistic view, this song is about pain, his guitar sounds like it is wailing in pain and you can feel it to your core. I have a pet peeve about calling the outro a "solo" because the band never stops playing behind him. It keeps the soundfield of the song going and makes his performance better, fuller. Right down to the drummer crashing to announce the ball drop (You can see him looking up in anticipation). I also like that she mentions how he bends the strings. Could we call him a "Fender Bender"? I saw a quote from him, admitting to not being able to play super fast like EVH and others, so he developed his own style, and I think it's wonderful.

[@fredericknalaremah939]

It's more than dramatic, it's dynamic but on steroids...Mesmerizing and timeless brilliance!

[@graememedley2506]

I was at the Pulse concert in the 90’s. So Epic and no live concert performance has come near it. Will never be topped.

[@pteppic76]

I’m incredibly new to Pink Floyd and had only ever heard Another Brick In The Wall growing up. Courtesy of another reaction channel this performance was the first PF song I’d ever sat down and properly listened to with headphones. Needless to say I was absolutely blown away and it sat with me for weeks, partly due to playing it over and over again. I still haven’t heard all that many songs yet, but I keep getting drawn back into this one, although it has been marginally surpassed by High Hopes from this same concert. Also Echoes live from Pompeii is another one that touches me deeply. I finally get all the love for PF!!!

[@marcanglin7127]

I absolutely love how the first solo is always played with the original notes, as if it was a piece of Classical music. You play the first solo as written, note-for-note to honor the composer. No other notes would fit here. The second solo is the one that is open to artist interpretation and improvisation. Perfect.

[@Jack-bc2ik]

Thanks for not pausing the solo! I just flew from Canada to London to see David perform and although he's obviously getting old, he's 78 now, he still killed it. I was too young to see Pink Floyd live, but to be able to see David perform the second solo to Comfortably Numb live was truly a dream come true.

The stage production isn't quite as extravagant but musically it is as good or better. You guys really should revisit some live performances of this tour. Between '87 to '89. So good!!

[@bnjmnwst]

17:50 YES! Thank you. This is the best version of the solo out of all the ones I've heard. So beautiful. That second solo is played over the same few chords which are simply repeating over & over. He's totally carrying that whole section, as far as making it "interesting." Everything else is just repetition. I also had the same thought about the complexity of the production. I never thought about how many cables there were connecting everything. Wow. What I always thought about was the synchronization of the light show with the music. It jumps out at you as you watch the full show. I've enjoyed this concert in full many, many times since I first saw it on VHS in the mid-90s. It NEVER gets old. I vote for the whole show. Absolutely! Great content!

[@kenjude1]

Yup, the same chord sequence and key (Bm) as the verses. In fact, it’s the key changes that make the song IMO. The first solo and choruses are in the relative major key D. If they’d repeated that for the second solo it would never have had that darker element to it.

[@johnroberthines7811]

1994 i was there at earls court London to witness this, in my opinion the best Pink Floyd gig they ever did from the music to the lighting and special effects the sound was awsome and i will never ever forget this Gig. I've been to see Floyd six times over the years from 1975 wish you were here tour, the wall twice 1980 and 81, late 80s the delicate sound of thunder tour twice including Wembley stadium, and lastly this one which was recorded and filmed for P. U. L. S.E..... I'm now 68yrs old and still watching and remembering this awsome show. It's great to see youngsters like you both doing this and hope you do much more Floyd in the future take care from England UK.

[@tundra2000us]

I was fortunate enough to see this Pulse concert at an arena in New Jersey and I was in awe of the scale of the event. I was seated in the center rear upper levels which was above the multi level (I think 4 stories) of scaffolding that was built for the techs who controlled the computers for the lasers. There was also mixing boards at a lower level. No other concert I have ever been to came close to this PF show. It just kept getting more and more incredible!!

I saw them live in '94' at the Oakland Coliseum. We had reserved seating on the lawn with a Pink Floyd Seat Cushion. It was an amazing display of talented musicians and lighting experts When they played this song and David started his second lead, that 10' Disco ball comes down like a UFO checking out the music.

Fun fact: Dany from “the warning” said that watching this song live with her father when she was a little girl, blew her mind, she knew at that moment, she wanted to be a rock star. Pink Floyd has inspired so many good artists, “Soda Stereo” also has a lot of Pink Floyd influence in their music.

Hello! I just stumble into this channel, and I am very proud of your sincerity in the reaction. I was there in that same concert in Earls Court back in 1994. That concert changed my life forever...seriously. Yes, please watch the entire concert from the start to the end....PHONES AND LIGHTS OFF PLEASE!!!!!! There are also videos from other songs that are not in the DVD that are equally good or even better...even from the rehearsals. I am very happy to have found this channel....congratulations. PS: be mindfull...after you experience this entire concert from start to finish your life and musical journey will never be the same.

Love you guys so much. I appreciate all the hard work and diversity of music you play. Only NicknLex is where you find everything from Steely Dan to Michael Franks to Pink Floyd. I'm hoping you get further into some more of Fagen's solo album sons like That's What I Do - his tribute to Ray Charles. And Bright Angel Lex, I hope your back problem is getting better. I'm 78 and know how you feel.

New Orleans, La. Superdome 👍

One of if not the Greatest Guitar Solos Ever. Just wait til you hear High Hopes another Great Guitar Solo of a Different Style😊

It is so beautiful to see Lex have that emotion to the music! Not only one of the greatest songs in rock, but also one of the best versions of it, as well. As always, thanks for the video, guys!

Wow, thank you!

[@aleccarmichael8590]

Probably one of the best live concerts ever🙂

I've seen Pink Floyd twice. I'm pushing 70 years old - and I am LOVING the fact that younger people are discovering one of the greatest rock bands in history.

I was at this concert at Earls Court in London.

[@aleccarmichael8590]

@@blackspires9033 I think I might have given a year of my life to have been there 😃🙂

Nick, you are the only person out of all of the reactions to this song that I have seen who has either commented or even seen that huge circular projection screen rotate through 90 degrees as David plays..... It's the most amazing piece of theatre... (together with the HUGE disco ball of course)... And I sew them on this tour...!! It's a concert that will stay with me forever and one that has never been bettered for a "complete" experience as far as I am concerned. So glad you got to watch it eventually.

A very good friend of mine Walt, a huge Pink Floyd fan told me many years ago that someone asked David Gilmour about playing fast 18:13 . David responded, you don't have to play fast to be good you just have to play good♪♫♪ Thank you for taking the time to make and post this excellent video...
