Pink Floyd - On The Turning Away | REACTION

[@todquarles1695]

That vocal exclamation point that Margaret Taylor added during the solo is exquisite. And I agree that this is one of Gilmour's all-time best solos

[@plantdesigns7889]

They always had some powerful backing vocalists. In this case Margaret Taylor, Rachel Fury, and Durga McBroom. Wish I had been able to see them live.

[@retohofmann5878]

Yes indeed...perfect singing of all of them. Remember Sam Brown joining the group....but this ad of Margaret Taylor...wow.

[@leebex100]

I've been lucky enough to see them live twice, with and without Roger Waters. There is simply no musical equivalence to them. Period.

[@johncunningham4820]

Yeah! That Lady got some SERIOUS PIPES . OMG .

[@eltonronjovi2238]

OMG, right?? When she hit that, I had to just close my eyes. Incredible.

[@princejoker80]

I'll never understand how people say Pink Floyd is boring music, man is reaches out and hits you right in your soul.

[@ryanefrisaputra8958]

No body said that

[@ethanfowler1752]

@@ryanefrisaputra8958I’ve heard many people say that Pink Floyd is Boomer music, retarded people

Only those who eliminated their souls.

[@SamHotene]

😂 pink floyd music is really out of this world kind of music....you'd understand if you were from another planet or dimension

[@GuitarRock86]

Because they have no soul

[@Nothing-zw3yd]

David Gilmour is one of my biggest influences on guitar. As far as I'm concerned, he's never played a wrong note, ever. Just glorious.

[@stevenanderson912]

So very true man respect 👏🏻👍🏻🎸🎸

[@MindofOneness]

Just shows you don't need an expensive guitar to sound good.

[@montana47261]

I have video of him playing wrong on the song Shine on You Crazy Diamond from Royal Albert Hall 😂 you can almost not hear it but u see in the video he missed a chord under the sax solo , I'm not dissing him tho i love Gilmour one of the best 👌

[@lovejetfuel4071]

Same, and I love his spooky guitar notes

[@Doctorlacrosse]

He's why I started playing guitar!!!

[@cricket8646]

I miss Richard Wright. The beautiful tapestries he wove with his key creations were stunningly moving.

[@sarahkinsey5434]

He was the glue

[@conroy1275]

Irreplaceable ❤️

[@josbruls]

He was the soul of PF.

[@lukeherrington8555]

Amazing work by Richard. Exquisite.

[@stevewalsh4850]

Always amazes me how Gilmour’s guitar can evoke so much emotion😎

[@cantonlowlifemedia]

It's brought me to tears more than once!

[@kylewallace474]

That's what he does. He is in a league of his own

[@zippyt.libertine3787]

That's the difference between a guitar player and a guitarist.

[@yanksrule311]

Absolutely. Not a burner, but a damn good musician. And that’s what music is about, yes? Creating emotion.

[@kpax45]

Nobody makes the guitar talk and cry like Gilmour

[@sarastromseth-troy3323]

I love everything about this song, but this guitar solo in particular is one of my favorite Gilmour solos ever! It just goes on and on and I don't want it to end.

[@lbow09]

This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard!

[@cantonlowlifemedia]

It's brought me to tears more than once!

[@doobiedave9686]

A Pink Floyd concert is always an experience for the eyes and the ears. 🎸🎶✌️

[@catsmith233]

And the soul

[@grassrootsflshp]

A spiritual experience, to be precise! :)

[@fredatkins5890]

Best night of my life. Earls court 94.

[@bungalowmo]

I have always enjoyed this "version" of Pink Floyd, without Roger Waters. While he was a founding member and had much to add, he also sort of always seemed to be an angry/dark influence as well. This "version" is all about the pure beauty & essence of the band. I may be a small voice & opinion, but it's just me & how I feel. I have their live Pulse DVD. Now that is absolute perfection. Just an amazing bouquet for the senses. I hope you're well, Jamel...I've loved your views & content for a couple years now ✌

[@ToddSauve]

To be able to play electric guitar like David Gilmour is a gift from God, as is this song. Yes, David can lift an entire stadiums hearts way, way up there with his solos and we wish they would go on forever. Pure musical joy! 🎸💖🎸

[@lovejetfuel4071]

I was walking down the street the other night, saw a man sitting on the ground, homeless, this song came straight into my mind. I turned back and gave him some money. I did not turn away this time

[@RichKolasa]

God bless you. JP5 rocks!

[@klimber10001]

It's hard to choose but this is one of their best. David Gilmour's voice is nothing short of masterful. They just pull you in and make you a part of the experience...

[@lorenmars5244]

David's choice of notes, through the solo, never fails to paint a picture in my mind. The Cosmic Cathedral behind him makes damn sure.

[@lizetteolsen3218]

One of my favorite live performances. The choral nearly a capella is beyond gorgeous.

[@neilsmith9066]

Gilmour vocals and guitar is heaven on earth they just remastered this concert the whole thing is absolutely unbelievable!!!!

[@MegaForrestgump]

"Just a world that we all must share" Ain't that the truth.

[@joycecalvitti6964]

Had a really tough day... this song is a healing salve for my soul ~

[@tonysantoro1997]

This live clip is from the movie Delicate Sound Of Thunder which was recorded at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island NY, where they played 5 nights straight in August 1988 and I was at 3 , including the last 2 nights when this movie was recorded.

[@aragorn50th]

This particular live performance is perfection.

[@markhine3232]

PINK FLOYD!! The deepest, most awesome rabbit hole you'll ever drop into!! Have been P.F. fan for many decades. They were just on a higher, different plain than almost every other band. Their songs can be, at the same time, easy and hard to comprehend. But also very timeless as you will discover as you take the journey with us. Always cool to see someone loving them for the first time. Thanks for the great react J aka J!!!!!!!!

[@paulrollings5291]

Glad to be here! Thanks Jamal for playing one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs! Gilmour. again shows both his vocal abilities and his legendary Guitar skills. I have played this song dozens and dozens of times and it never gets old.

[@korylinn2251]

One of my favorite songs of all time! I’m so glad you got to this one.

[@jimlutz1290]

Pink Floyd has always been a spiritual experience, from early on, (1979) I was 19, and it grew and expanded as did life. I was lucky to see Pink Floyd in 94 at Giants Stadium on a massive tour and again in 2012, at MSG, NY - words fail in comparison to being present in the moment, both you and the back in the same room - Long Live the Floyd -

[@sirsuse]

There are very few bands that can take you for a ride like Pink Floyd can. 💗

[@MrJlc93]

I couldn't choose between this solo and the comfortably numb solo. They're both just so bloody good ♥️

[@GeekGinger]

I saw them in Madrid in 88. Absolutely stunning concert. This looks like the same tour.

[@nickmcginley4570]

It is. This is from the DVD called The Delicate Sound Of Thunder.

[@xavierlluch702]

Yes, It is! I saw them in Barcelona just two days before. Still the BEST show i've never been on my whole life.

[@R01120]

Gilmore's guitar is the sound of the universe crying. And kudos to Richard Wright and Nick Mason.

[@richgoebel6650]

Thank you I have been listening to this song 35 years since it came out. It was this reaction that hit home. I had not tried to understand the song, just enjoy it. With just a few words from you about this, it means so much more. In the past five years or so, I have become more isolated, more left out, more alone and ignored. Having a rare neurological disorder that now has me in a wheelchair, I don't leave the house much, and when I go somewhere, I feel alone in a crowd. I have to find a way to be accepted and included when I show up somewhere by myself, other than people holding doors open for me. I'm going to dig into the lyrics and watch this again.

[@RichKolasa]

God bless you, sir. Some of us care.

Can you Imagine wielding this kind of power? This band can do it on a whim. Masterclass worldwide success. The sound , The sound. Sonic wizardry.

[@scottbaxtrom4324]

Best concert I have ever seen in Toronto Canada 1994 the Division Bell Tour.Fantastic live,lighting was out of this world as well as the stage construction,sound incredible and the back singers they travel with are Amazing. Grew up with Floyd as a teenager and remember many parties just getting wasted to them. 70's,80's and 90's had such amazing bands,what an era. Enjoy the ride.😊

[@byrnez2755]

My favorite performance of my favorite Pink Floyd song. Great message. Great vocals all around. Other musicians nailed their parts. And the guitar solo can be argued to be as good as the second solo in Comfortably Numb in Pulse concert.

[@ronniecramer1252]

I never understood why they didn’t do this song at live8. The whole purpose of the concert was to raise money for underprivileged people. What a perfect match. It’s my favorite also.

[@grassrootsflshp]

@@ronniecramer1252 I think they don't wanna spoil their reunion in a long time, and offend Roger with a song that he had absolutely not been part of, from an album which was the result of his departure (which Waters was very critical, and arguably embittered about).

[@ronniecramer1252]

@@grassrootsflshp you are probably right, but it's a shame that grown men could not reach a compromise. We'll do two of your songs , and one of ours especially since that track was the essence of the message of the whole affair.

[@grassrootsflshp]

@@ronniecramer1252 I hear you bro, Rog is largely to blame with his big fat ego methinks. Gilmour had always been more or less a subdued and reserved character in most interviews, who is more inclined to listen and compromise. Wish I could say the same with Rog.

[@ronniecramer1252]

@@grassrootsflshp this will be my last reply. My wife and I just saw the [This is not a drill tour] and couple of months ago. You've probably already seen this. At the very beginning Roger is on stage and announces that ' I'm sure most of you are here because you like the music of Pink Floyd , but if you don't agree with my political views, you should get the f--k out of the arena now. Kind of in your face don't you think !

It starts as a gospel and ends as a rock ballad. Magnificent. Great guitar solo and backing vocals.

[@zippyt.libertine3787]

Possibly one of the greatest rock songs ever written.

[@ronniecramer1252]

I have to preface this by saying that Pink Floyd is my all time favorite band and this is my favorite song. I usually don’t watch these videos on my IPhone because of the sound quality, but I couldn’t resist hearing my favorite track again, so here I am wiping my eyes again. ❤

Also imho had the absolute best live version of Great Gig in the Sky. Better than the Pulse version that most react to.

[@danielmoose1273]

'Much Love And Thanks' for posting this video. As the entire show did, watching them do this song live in '87 left me speechless in awe, and it happened all over again while watching this. Seeing Pink Floyd live in concert was overwhelmingly amazing every time. Thank You for bringing back the memory ...

[@JarredPearman]

Such a gravity to their music. Unlike anything other. They are acutely aware of suffering and struggle and the experience of life.

This song actually changed my life for the good. It started by simply volunteering at the homeless shelter. Then my kids got involved with us. Now my grandkids helps out. We don't do it as much as we would like but usually once or twice a month. We do some holiday meals. It's really amazing how just a little bit of help will go a long way. It was all because of this song.

[@joeraboine5154]

David Gilmour and Pink Floyd may be a rock band, but their message and impact ranks up there with Mother Teresa, MLK, and many others who fought for social justice, peace, and unity….creating music so powerful that it transcends all races. The universal language of love. Incredible

[@midnitesunblues]

One thing about PF, you know exactly who you are listening to. unmistakable excellence.

[@Cashcrop54]

I love the Delicate Sound of Thunder Concert almost as much as Pulse. At about 9:15 David uses his pick hand to touch a fret. I really enjoy watching him play. He's like a surgeon over the guitar. Thanks Jamel!

Guy Pratt on the fretless bass is amazing

I was lucky enough to see Pink Floyd in concert at Soldier Field and it was amazing and special for me. The people I met that night that shared everything, food, drinks, weed, shrooms. There’s was a point in the concert when the crystal ball came up and it started raining right on cue and it was epic. I still get goosebumps thinking about it. A show I’ll never forget.

[@katwithattitude5062]

I love this song but my favorite off this album (A Momentary Lapse of Reason) is "Learning to Fly". The live version of that from the Pulse tour is amazing. The only issue with that is a lot of flashing lights at the end that might affect those who are sensitive to flashing lights.

[@mrlox9576]

This song was part of my childhood and I loved it. Makes you think, even as a kid. The the crowd go nuts at the start, then quiet for the first verse til guitar kicks in (apart from odd rogue whistler, lol), that's respect and love for the track right there. Definitely touches the soul! As for ppl askin for change to do drugs n stuff. I don't judge. I that's where they at and feel that's what they need at that point in their lives, at least they aren't robbin ya!. But that's up to them, I'd rather they bought food with my donation, but I ain't gonna judge. I definitely know what it's like. They will seek help when ready or die, but the choice is theirs. Can't force help when they aren't ready!

As always so much feeling in the guitar only Gilmour can produce then any other guitarist so impeccable 👌

[@ColKurtzknew]

Nice surprise notification here. The best captured performance on film of a prog rock song ever Rewatch, paying closer attention to the cinematography, arrangement, Richards dramatic opening, lead vocal and harmonic solo and, arguably, David's best solo

A masterpiece, as good as anything Roger Waters wrote! ...and that guitar solo is out of this world!

I have been going to concerts, playing in bands and working shows for almost 50 years. I have seen more shows than I can count or remember. But seeing Pink Floyd in 1988 on the Delicate Sound of Thunder tour has to be the highlight. Pink Floyd defies genre - they are a genre all their own.

Nice smaller venue for the Momentary Lapse of Reason show. I saw both this tour and Division Bell at the Oakland Coluseum.

I grew up with this guy. David is one of the best players in the world. I can tell by your reaction that you felt the same thing I feel every time I hear this guy play. I wish I could play like that. I admire you for giving this music a listen. I saw your face while you watched it. I feel that way every time I hear him play. He is not the only great artist. Jimi Hendrix and many others are incredible. I just subscribed because of your reaction to this song. I saw it in your face, Bro. Some musicians have a way of getting into your soul. And there is nothing you can do about it. Although, Gilmour is one of the best, in my opinion, there are many others. But, your face, while listening to this was epic. I feel you, Bro.

I've been to many live concerts starting in the mid 1970s. Pink FLoyd's PULSE tour in 1993 or 1994 was the best sounding live concert by far. It was like some multi-millionaire's ultra-expensive home stereo. Crystal clear. Just mind-blowing.

Pink Floyd is on another level altogether! The Greatest Progressive Rock band in history, also, they are in the top 3 greatest Rock Bands ever, the Beatles of course are #1, Pink Floyd and/or Led Zeppelin at #2 and #3 respectively.
