This is arguably the best live lyrical guitar solos in rock history. Not blazingly fast, not shredding, no fancy tapping techniques, just pure musicality in an extended thematically cohesive expression of lyricism and power. Great reaction!

[@SaeedReacts.]

Beautifully described. Epic performance. Thanks so much for watching.

[@Edz90]

It sounds like the guitar in David Gilmour hands is singing its own story, you don't just listen to it, you feel, you let it through yourself

[@vickiejenkins-tripp5994]

Without a doubt. And I've heard many.

[@Tijuanabill]

TBF to everyone who isn't a rock god, Gilmour does actually use quite a few advanced techniques, on a very regular basis. He has an expressive, old style blues sort of sound, which might make someone think he can't shred. But it is not easy to play his songs, from a technical standpoint.

[@kokomo9764]

I agree 100%.

[@AliasMark69]

Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a David Gilmour show coming up. Knowing I am a Floyd fan she called the radio station (KMET - LA, “The Mighty Met”) to get information on the concert, The DJ on live radio Cynthia Fox…. said...."Congratulations, YOU are caller number 10, YOU just won tickets to the show and the Sound Check Party before the show"... I met David Gilmour back stage. He gave us both a signed album that I have in my music room. We talked for 22 minutes. I called him…“The Master Of The Stratocaster” He smiled. I told him his music will stand the test of time with anything from Beethoven or Mozart. He smiled even bigger. I asked if I could shake both his hands that make such great guitar solos, he smiled bigger and said “Sure” and shook both hands at the same time, making a cross between us, I smiled HUGE. Hard to explain how awesome that moment was in my life. I asked him to describe his technique of playing guitar, he replied… “I strike a note, bend it, shake it and then release it”…. Yes, he does that quite well, better than any other guitarist I know. . I told him in my eyes he’s a “Legend“. He thanked me and said “Enjoy the show”…. during the concert after the song “Money” he looked right at me and said…. “On saxophone, another Legend, Mr. Raphael Ravenscroft” … acknowledging my comment to him. It is my favorite moment in over 300 shows I’ve seen. I asked David…. How do you create those awesome solos?… he said….. I sit on a stool and listen to what Roger, Nick and Rick put down and play along. I listen to what I played and pick out what I like, then I put the pieces together into one piece then learn to play it as one. Our fans are fanatics for our shows to sound like the albums so I must play it correctly each time in a show. I have the concert Brochure and album on the wall with David’s picture centerfold. All of us fortunate enough to have seen this show live were in a TRANCE.... MESMERIZED the entire show... as you can imagine. We walked out saying.... What did we just witness? That was out of this world incredible. The Red Fender Stratocaster he used for this concert in the Guitar Collector World is ....PRICELESS

[@marktrullinger3765]

WOW. You're a lucky man. I never got the privilege to see my favorite band of all. Saw many of the greats, but NOBODY touches MY soul with a guitar like this man. Even his voice is almost like from another place. It's ok tho...I've accepted it. When I'm in THAT mood.......my neighbors know it too....😏

[@Kristina-jf4hd]

His black Strat sold at auction for over $3M. David Gilmour is definitely a legend! I was at the KC, MO show on this tour with VIP floor seats. I also saw them in Pittsburgh in 1988. My favorite band of all time. RIP Richard Wright 🌈⃤. 🌈⃤. 🌈⃤. 🌈⃤.

Welcome to the magical world of Pink Floyd's 1994 Pulse concert, the greatest rock concert in history, imho. You should react to more songs from this sublime concert.

This song both is and isn't about drugs. The writer, Roger Waters is speaking about two events in his life. The first as a child with a high fever, the second while he was touring on the "Animals" album when he was suffering from Hepatitis and a doctor injected him with a heavy tranquillizer. Waters has stated that he could barely lift his arms during the performance.

[@sarastromseth-troy3323]

This is such an amazing performance! David Gilmour is one of my favorite musicians. I was fortunate to see him in concert on his solo tour in 2016 when it came through Chicago. He performed this song and other Pink Floyd classics, as well as his solo music. At 70 years old that year, he still sounded amazing! If you ever want to check out a more recent performance of 'Comfortably Numb', I suggest checking out David Gilmour's livel performance of it from his 2016 solo tour, specifically, Live in Pompeii. Otherwise, another great song from the 1994 Pink Floyd Pulse concert I suggest is 'Sorrow'.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Glad you got to see him live. Looking forward to more of Pink Floyd.

[@coot1925]

If you listen to the lyrics he says "when I was a child I had a fever, my hands felt just like two balloons", so it wasn't about taking drugs.

[@taccamine8312]

Then he says: "Now I have that same feeling again, you cannot understand. This is not who I am". It's about depersonalization and feeling disconnected from yourself. It could be drugs, anesthesia, medications, or anything that makes you distant. It can reduce pain, anxiety etc, but also the notion of being alive and present.

[@CarinTibellAhlin]

A really nice and thoughtful comment! Your absolutely right. That is just how truly amazing lyrics are. The meaning is deeper and wider than the actual words in themselves. Thank you 🙏​@@taccamine8312

Now it's time to go back to 1973 to one of the greatest albums of all time - The Dark Side of the Moon. Like most Pink Floyd albums, it is a concept album, but the song "Time" will touch anyone who has ever thought about how time is passing faster and faster. And "The Great Gig in the Sky" is from another world. And if you want to look deep inside a human being - where you can certainly find yourself - then of course the whole album "The Wall", from which Comfortably Numb also comes. But really from front to back, so that you understand the meaning of the wonderful lyrics. If there was no music other than Pink Floyd, the musical universe would still not be dark

[@vincentc.4722]

It's funny that you mention hearing bits of the song in a couple of movies because you love movies, but yet (maybe) you haven't realised that Pink Floyd's "The Wall" album also served as the soundtrack to the movie "The Wall', directed by Alan Parker (Parker also directed Evita, Mississpi Burning, Midnight Express, Angel Heart and more). It was an awesome movie (I saw it about 6 times in the year of its release when I was a teenager). 🙂 I loved it, all the members of my band loved it (and we covered Another brick in the wall), all my friends loved it. It was a HUGE alum all over the world (we were in France). That's where this song came from. And the Pulse version is probably the best of all in terms of the epic guitar solo, with Live in Pompei not far behind. I love watching your reaction, I see the emotions all over your face. It serves to remind me why we make music, beyond all the learning, the technical exercises, the practice, the dealings with the technology and so on, not to mention the sore fingers and arthritis when we get old.

Another quality reaction .....Thank You. From The Wall album, which itself is Rogers life story up to the time of writing the lyrics......this was the night Roger was too sick and in agonising pain and couldnt go on stage. A doctor gave him a sedative to kill the pain, but it also numbed his whole body and brain. Roger went on stage but couldnt play the bass because he couldnt feel his hands and fingers......plus his brain was on another planet and in a diffdrent universe . Roger stood around for over 2 hours while the band performed around him......David and Rick covering the bass notes on guitar and Hammond organ.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks so much for sharing a bit of the backstory! Truly appreciate that.

[@3rdOption-l9t]

💜👍 Thank you for this heartfelt, connected reaction. Songs will mean something to the writers and players, but will have a unique meaning for each listener. When TV shows/movies choose music, the skill and care of the show runners determines how effectively songs reflect the plot point they support. And when they hit it right, the song can become intertwined with that moment in the minds of viewers. The Sopranos altered TV dramas, forever. I just found and rewatched the scene you referenced. Yee-ikes. No wonder it's all tied together in your head. But your personal hospital reference is not far off from the truth. The last epic solo is the concert the musician played after the doctor gave him an injection so he could perform, because the show must always go on. Based on a real life experience of one of the band members.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks so much for watching and the kind words. David Chase really chose great music for his show, ofcourse he also had Steven Van Zandt he could consult with :) Powerful scene indeed! So glad i finally discovered this song and band. Really enjoyed the songs i have heard so far.

While Pink Floyd is my favorite group of all time, ( it has been the sound track of my life for 51 years now) I want to recommend a song called Silent Lucidity” by Queensryche . The journey is a close second to this song. Enjoy the ride, and welcome to the machine!😉

[@JasonTurner-uk9rk]

Saeed he’s right on with the band ….. another prog rock icon…. But check out the rock opera operation mindcrime… the entire album is a story with a Manchurian candidate sorta thing going on… don’t want to ruin it but a top 5 album of all time IMO 👍

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks so much for this recommendation! The title already intrigues me!

[@johndugger1028]

the album The Wall is a rock opera every song is connected to the next

[@2110jacko]

I can happily say I was in the crowd for this performance. Unquestionably the best show I've ever seen. It was stunning.

[@SaeedReacts.]

That is awesome! You are part of a historic night!

[@EileenParise]

And this is what you call awesome!! and why we love pink Floyd, great reaction

[@SaeedReacts.]

Amazing performance! Thanks for watching.

For a person who pays particular attention to lyrics, you are in the right place with Pink Floyd. If their music is captivating, the story the lyrics tell is just as captivating, they have an unusual story to tell. Like Comfortably Numb which tells three stories at the same time, a fictional one based on two real ones. The young boy's fever, the injection of a sedative to allow the bassist to perform in concert despite severe hepatitis and the fictional story of the rock star Pink. It's up to you to sort all this out. Have fun...

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks so much for sharing that extra info. Love that they actually have 3 storylines interwoven. Looking forward to more.

[@Figu111]

The best solo of the all times

[@riff8114]

Welcome to Pink Floyd lol.....Such an Adventure you are headed... I saw them in 77', the ' Animals' tour

[@SaeedReacts.]

That's awesome!

[@greg73cho]

Always love seeing younger generations enjoying and respecting the music I was raised on, Pink Floyd definitely one of the best

[@SaeedReacts.]

Amazing song and performance!

[@JasonTurner-uk9rk]

I can’t believe as a movie buff and former “ party favor indulger “ that you have never seen The Wall…. Pretty iconic movie

[@SaeedReacts.]

Its a short film, right. I heard about it here and there through the years, but never saw it.

[@JasonTurner-uk9rk]

It’s an hour and a half or so…1982 I think?

[@Tarkus_]

@@SaeedReacts. It's about an hour and a half. Definitely a must-see! I'm pretty sure you'd love it.

[@SENSEOFLIBERTY]

But first the better is to listen studio album entirely.

[@ianfortier6796]

Definitely agree he should listen to the album first, then the movie, then the live album from the 1980-81 tour.

[@jono.pom-downunder]

Welcome to real music the journey in the music is everything. Emotions ebb & flow but the flight continues.

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks. Looking forward to explore more.

[@MoniCharli677]

First concert..PF “Pig concert” in Miami FL🎉 1977? Awesomeness OL🎉 Great Reaction 💜Moni RN🫶🏼📿✝️

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks for watching!

[@allenhill1223]

Wow baby boy this is mind blowing❤

[@eyeofthetiger6002]

The best guitar solo ever,bar none....it's like a Mozart piano concerto except it's a Gilmour guitar concerto.

[@AliasMark69]

I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show Syracuse Carrier Dome in N.Y. 1994. The concert brochure said the stage is 120 feet wide. It takes a crew of 60 technicians three days to set up the entire lights and all. The concert schedule required that there had to be three entire crews to keep up. They leap froged each other for 92 shows with 20 Trucks per crew and a total staff of 195. The tour cost the promoters $98.MILLION to put on, but the total profit was $260 MILLION. Nick Mason’s drumming is incredible and matches Gilmour’s guitar emotions while Richard Wright takes us on a Magic Carpet Ride of tones that form the foundation of it all. When the “Disco Ball’ was uncovered and the lights hit it….. WHAT IS HAPPENING was what I said….The entire crowd was held in a trace and our minds totally blown by what we witnessed. I sparked up my pipe for this reaction, as I do to all Pink Floyd songs. Thanks This is about a Pink Floyd Live show…..The man saying “Time To Go”….. represents the “Stage Manager” telling the band it’s time to go to the stage, they are up next. Roger Waters was not feeling well. This is the story of that event

[@SaeedReacts.]

Incredible concert. What a production. Thanks so muu for sharing your experience!

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

Hope you do Echoes live at Pompeii, 1971, when they were young. Epic!

[@SaeedReacts.]

Thanks for that recommendation!
