How many original members are still active in Pink Floyd? Is there another song from this concert I should listen to?
Richard Wright left in 79, Waters left in 85, but both returned for reunion concerts.
During this concert, it was David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright. Roger Waters left the band in 1983 and they didnt do a partial show together until 2005. Roger Waters still tour to this day. He is on tour right as we speak, go get tix right now and go see the concert. Its worth every penny. :-)
Coming Back To Life, Run Like Hell, Sorrow, Shine On You Crazy Diamond, High Hopes, Wish You Were Here...in fact, the entire concert is mind blowing.
in this concert """"""only"""""" roger waters is not here ...of course in this concert you have to react to "sorrow" and "one of these days" ...and after go to the studio albums...and you will have a lot of subscibers 😀
Sorrow and Keep Talking especially.
The young bassist is Guy Pratt, a top session player. He’s played with Michael Jackson, Madonna and many more. He’s never been an official member, but has been de-facto bassist since the 80’s, when Roger Waters left. (Who is just about to go on tour in the US. Catch a show if you can get a ticket!)
Guy is playing in Nick Mason’s (Pink Floyd drummer) Saucerful of Secrets at the moment. They play pre-Dark Side of the Moon Floyd material.
He also has a weekly podcast with Gary Kemp - the Rockonteurs - where they chat with famous musicians. Finally, his book My Bass and Other Animals is a great read.
And, Guy is keyboardist Rick Wright's son-in-law.
Guy Pratt married Gala Wright
Richard Wrights daughter
so he literally became part of the Pink Floyd family
{:-) PAV UK
Never knew this. Thanks for the info.
@@jackiegoodspeed1849 my husband is looking forward to learning how to play the Bass. I'll definitely pass this info onto him!❤
I think Guys dad was an actor, Randall in Randall and Hopkirk decreased, showing my age now.
Dave Gilmour is the master of emotive and expressive playing. All bow down.
David Gilmour is the only proof that a god exists - a guitar god.
am bowing...
This isn't the finalé, believe it or not. THAT is even more of a show! Tbh, any song from this concert is a great pick. Try 'Sorrow' for a guitar solo that's even better than this...arguably. I say 'arguably', as many rate this performance as the greatest guitar solo of all-time! Try 'Run Like Hell' if you want to see that truly incredible finalé I was talking about. :)
The solo on this is great, but the performance as a whole was way better on the wall tour. It's available on youtube, and mother is the best version in my opinion, from the 1981 wall tour
Definitely try SORROW!!! Huge song and Guitar lesson in Feedback control by David G.
love sorrow
Sorrow is fantastic!!
Sorrow is great...but I'd put it behind this masterpiece.
The young man's name is Guy Pratt, who replaced Roger Waters on bass and vocals for Pink Floyd's tours during the 90s. The 3 original members Gilmour, Wright, and Mason are in the line-up.
Guy Pratt married Gala Wright, Rick Wright's daughter.
He was 31 or 32 years old at the time of the recording.
Dave Gilmour wasn't an original member!
He actually joined in the late 80's for A Momentary Lapse of Reason, you can see him play on The Delicate Sound of Thunder concert played at The Nassau Colloseum.
Best live guitar solo ever.
The whole Pulse concert is epic.
I was lucky enough to see this show in Rotterdam and twice at Earl's Court in London. It remains, in my and many others opinions, the greatest rock performance of all time.
A few snippets - Floyd play LOUD, really loud. At Earls Court, at times you could feel the walls shake. The sound was quadrophonic, so you would often hear different things from either side and front and back of the arena.
The giant mirror ball is about the size of a small house, and it's appearance drew 20,000 gasps from the audience. The staging and light show are unmatched even 28 years later. Every musician on that stage are masters of their craft. It doesn't get any better than this!
Please do continue to react to songs from this concert - your reactions remind me of how I felt seeing it for the first time. Subscribed.
I was at Earl's Court as well for the show and you're not wrong about the walls shaking!
The low guitar notes in Sorrow!
Life changing show :)
Me too, i was there to see this magnificent concert. I agree, I've never seen anyone else match it. 40+ years of Pink Floyd in my heart! 👍🇬🇧
@@EricManktelow Yep, those deep notes in sorrow shook the walls - they should have asked Dave back to do the demolition job when they were pulling it down! In addition to the ones mentioned above - the fly buzzing around your head at the start of High Hopes, the plane at the end of On The Run...... just so many unforgettable moments. The ultimate show.
@@fd1930 Would have been the best sounding demolition ever! :)
I saw them at Earl's Court as well during this tour and I can't imagine that anyone could ever put on as epic a show as this from beginning to end. Greatest performance of all time by the greatest band of all time.
Thank you so much for reacting to this. I was in high school when this song first came out in 1979. I remember it well. My girlfriend and I at the time loved attending concerts. It was one of the things we loved doing together. There were a huge number of wonderful groups at the time and concerts were not very expensive to attend. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Boston, Journey, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Triumph, 38 Special, Foreigner, and many others. I can not describe to you what a wonderful time it was to be young then. We were happier, relationships were closer, life was more carefree, and the music was spectacular. My heart just aches that young people will not get to experience life as we did as teenagers in the 70’s/80’s. Again, thank you so much for posting this video. It was a wonderful treat.
That second solo is THE greatest guitar solo in history, period. Prove me wrong.
The first solo is the best number 2 ever.
I was 13 rows from the front at this, the greatest concert i have ever seen. 40+ years of being a Pink Floyd fan, they're deep in my heart! 👍🇬🇧
Me too! Row 11 or 12 from memory. Right in the middle. Heard See Emily Play in '67 age 11 and have been in love with The Floyd since then. None better.
I’m so jealous!!!
@@MrWishud I was one year old in 67 lol. Although i have followed Pink Floyd since i was 12 years old myself. So like you, a lifetime of Floyd. Yes we were sat very near the middle too, block AA, Row Q, Seat 38 ground level. I know this because i have my ticket framed & a hologram card of the Division Bell faces that i bought at the arena that night for £1. Worth much more now & rare. Ive seen many great bands live including The Rolling Stones, Ian Gillan, Iron Maiden, Hawkwind, Rush & others. The greatest experience of course was seeing my beloved Pink Floyd live. 👍🇬🇧
@@jackiegiannino6835 Perhaps try to see Gilmour or Waters live some day? 🤞🇬🇧
@@Paul-hl8yg it’s on my bucket list…. Lol😉
Goosebumps. Every single time.
When you've seen it 10 times you can close your eyes and just let go.
So emotional! I have listened and cried so many times
People say that Pink Floyd isn't just music, it's an experience. Syd Barrett left in 1968, when David Gilmour joined. Roger Waters left in 1983 and then Guy Pratt took over bass duties; he also married Rick Wright's daughter, Gala Wright. Rick Wright passed away in 2008. So, basically David Gilmour and Nick Mason (drums) are still around. Other assorted players in this show. Please check out "On the Turning Away" live AND their early live show "Echoes live at Pompeii" 1971.
Pink Floyd will always be in the Halls of the Rock Gods!!!
Effects guy: "So how much can we spend?"
Floyd: "Yes."
I was in the front row for one of the pulse shows... it's not just the music that overwhelms you... the heat and intensity of the lights and thunderflashes (run like hell) the vibration from the music can never be replicated on any live album
I was there that night. Absolutely amazing show
Back in O.C. Calif when I was 30 my wife heard a commercial on the radio about a P.F. 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. 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
I remember Cynthia Fox on KMET. That was my station followed by KLOS!
@@lookiloo100 She was a babe. Real pretty with long blonde hair wearing all black leather and spike heals. She sat two seats away from me during the concert. I sat next to "Raul".... the remote sound guy for KMET
That is really cool. I miss those days!
WOW what a blassing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The feeling that David transmit from inside to the guitar via his fingerprints is incredible.
Only a few people in this world can do it.
The object in the middle opening up is a lotus flower
We have to keep in mind that this was done in the early 90s. Computers back then didnt even have the power of a mondern smartpphone. Its remarkable what kind of lightshow they put up. His solo is even by other great guitarist considered the best ever played till today. Listening to it feels everytime like an eargasm. God touched davids hands and he touches our souls in return. What he does on his fender is just pure magic.
This was played 14 days in a row of sold out shows. ( saw 5 times). Production: 200 ton stage, 200,000 watts of power ( needed 4 military style generators) 128 wireless speakers, FAA clearance for outdoor lasers, 3 of these production being rotated . Disco Ball : 60's music critics said Floyds music wouldn't sell because they don'y play DANCE music. So The ball is a BIG F U to the critics. Watch ANY song in this concert you will not be disappointed. "Sorrow" ***** " run like hell, keep talking ( intro by Stephen Hawking ), High Hopes *****. You like big productions just watch the being of Roger Waters ( former member) " The Wall" opening of the concert." Roger Waters " In the Flesh" The Wall. This is just the being of "the Wall' *************
Keep Talking from this show is brilliant....Pulse itself is brilliant and best stage concert I've ever seen...
incredible info you're dishing out here man thanbks! FAA authorizations my god!!!
I never got to that one but my brother took me to the Empire Theatre in my hometown Liverpool UK in 1974 to see them performing The Dark Side of The Moon...I was 14 and totally hypnotised by them, god they knew how to put on a show...I feel blessed now that I got to see all my favourite British rock bands in concert back then, never seen anything like those concerts since 😏
The Pulse Concert took place in London near the end of the Division Bell tour, which commenced in Miami in March 1994 and ended in London in October 1994, with 14 performances over 17 days at Earls Court.
Next one from Pink Floyd - On the Turning away ( live to the Delicate Sound of Thunder concert 1988 ) 😎👍
The greatest solo in recorded history.
Absolutely LOVE PINK FLOYD!
That killer bass line in Comfortably Numb absolutely gives the lead guitar that extra power as it rides, mingles with, and screams over those deep dark rich bass tones. Kudos for pointing that out. You also have a point about Gilmour's voice. Every bit as iconic in rock and roll as the sound of that guitar. It serves as the perfect interpretation of Floyd's dark often emotional lyrics.
The younger dude is a touring musician, not an official member of the band. Of course he's not that young anymore.
Also Rick Wright’s son in law.
That's why it is a mistake to call it a solo, it's just a badass guitar line in a fantastic instrumental break.
I've seen Pink Floyd four times twice in the 70s once in 87 and this 94 Paul's concert live! Seen about 100 concerts in my life and never seen a better one than all 4 Floyd concerts! You'll find what this post-concert every song is like any other groups finale! The finale for this concert is "Run like Hell". The massive fixture is a 30-foot diameter screen and they show movies and all kinds of things timed to many of their songs. For this concert try High Hopes or "One of These Days" or "Sorrow", if you want to see incredible lights or incredible guitar solos!! Really enjoy your reactions keep it up!!
Incredible song by Pink Floyd
It’s so much more than music!
I've been listening to Pink Floyd for almost 50 years now.
I bought my first Floyd album, Dark Side of the Moon when it came out back in high school.
As they say the rest is history.
Might I suggest a couple of others from this same concert.
Run Like Hell
Money
Time
Learning to Fly
On the Turning Away
to start.
There are only 3 original members here:
David Gilmour
Richard Wright on keyboards, R.I.P.
Nick Mason on drums
Roger Waters wrote this song for the Wall. He and David had a falling out, so he tours on his own.
Syd Barrett was an original member back in the late sixties, he left due to serious mental issues.
40+ years for me.. Deep ingrained in my heart! ❤ 👍🇬🇧
Plus, "high Hopes" live from this tour. Gilmore plays that lap steel to absolute perfection. Not to take any greatness from Jimmy Hendrix, but Gilmore is number one greatest guitarist of all time.
Love Pink Floyd ❤
This entire concert video is wonderful. However, there are 2 other songs that I strongly encourage you check out from this show, "One of These Days" and "Sorrow". You'lll be very happy you did.
Saw this in 1994 in Columbus, 70,000 people, was just surreal, hoping it would never end….
Watched this in FL back in 94. I was 18. Something I will never forget.
Listening to Pink Floyd creates your own movie in your head.
This concert is amazing in every way. I highly recommend Sorrow and One Of These Days from the same show.
Lol I see you were as impressed by the light show as we predicted you would be -- they bring the experience to a unimaginable level with their stage show -- glad you loved it
I saw them on this tour and can say that watching a video or listening to a soundtrack gives you no idea of the power of being there in the middle of this performance and being carried away it along with thousands of others around you by the incredible power of it. Nothing. Compares. Total immersion in the music.
Pink Floyd is Legendary, they are a Vibe all their own, people don't listen to Pink Floyd, they experience Pink Floyd! Pink Floyd is an experience.
There are really only 3 of the 4 members of Pink Floyd on stage here in 1994, the original bassist of Pink Floyd, Roger Waters, quit the band in 1988. Guy Pratt is the young guy playing bass here, he took over for Waters in 89 and has been there ever since.
The 3 members are, David Gilmour, (guitar, lead vocals), Rick Wright, (keyboards, vocals, the one with the grey hair, lol), and Nick Mason, (drums, percussion). The others are not technically Pink Floyd members, they are the touring group for Pink Floyd.
I've been a Pink Floyd fan since they released their iconic album, "Dark Side of the Moon" album in 1973, I was 17 years old. Virtually all of Pink Floyd albums are concept albums, they are made to be listened to as a whole, in one sitting, not individual songs here and there. their albums tell a story.
Their Dark Side of the Moon album is one of the greatest Rock albums of all time, it has sold over 50 million copies and still counting. It spent 962 weeks on the Billboard Top Selling 100 albums of all time, that's over 18 years!
Have you done Pink Floyd ‘Echoes’ live at Pompeii 1972? 50 years old and shows the young princes who become kings 🧡 it is remarkable and utterly brilliant
Please react to it. 🙏
Pink Floyd is a journey!!! It’s been the soundtrack of my life for the past 50 years!!
Cool mate! Ditto.😜
Favorite band! Have watched several of these and none have been blocked!
Pink Floyd are an experience
I just checked to see what Floyd you've reacted to. You still have a LONG Pink Floyd journey ahead of you! :) I see you've done most of Dark Side of the Moon... in bits. You really should do the whole album in one go, even if you do so offline. A quiet place, dim the lighting, phone off, no distractions, just listen and let them take you away... :) In fact all Floyd is best listened to an album at a time. They were an album band and wrote for the album format, not the single format. Their albums each have a theme or concept and/or tell a story. The tracks usually flow into each other, or are linked with audio of some kind. Thus their music tends to be more enjoyable and understandable, listened to an entire album at a time. I understand that you may not feel able to do this online but definitely try it offline. I'd recommend their follow-up album, to DSotM - Wish You Were Here. I know you've reacted to the title track but the rest of it is just as good, or better. Many rate it even higher than DSotM! Then there's absolute classics, such as 'Meddle' and 'The Wall' still to come! :)
Btw, DSotM is the 3rd biggest selling album of all-time and has spent slightly under 1000 weeks on the Billboard album chart! That's getting on for 20 years! As you may have guessed, it holds the record for most weeks on that chart, by a huge margin. I should also mention that 'The Wall' is the biggest selling double album of all-time! :)
I think if I Ever saw an album called “The Smash Hits Of Pink Floyd” I’d give up on music and move on to painting.
@@Bill_Jones.
Relics.
I have seen Pink Floyd Live 4 times… I saw this same show 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.
You have to watch the whole PULSE concert from 94 in its entirety!!!!!! It will change your life forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Smoothest voice ever! One of my all time favourite bands! Incredible on his guitar too! Awesomeness right there! Just saying lol
I always spark up my pipe for this performance reaction.... Thanks
A couple of things for you... The young guy playing the bass is called Guy Pratt.. he was a session musician and he basically has toured with Pink Floyd ever since Roger Waters left.. he even play on some of th later studio albums... As for the giant fixture... yes that was definitely a part of the show... it was basically a Giant disco ball but one that lit up the auditorium.... know, I was lucky enough to see them on this tour, and it was a stunning moment when the petals opened up.. their light shows are second to nobody and are in a league of their own... just like their music. As for another track to do from this concert....PLEASE, PLEASE do a reaction to a track called "Sorrow".... completely different from Comfortably Numb but just as sublime with the musicianship.
The only thing that can beat Pink Floyd is another Pink Floyd song - best band of all time
Was there in Denver. Best show I’ve ever seen and it isn’t even close.
Pink Floyd doesn't make music , they make ART .
Pulse is probably the best concert video ever .Talking aabout production I worked as a stagehand for Pink Floyd on the Wall tour. Every group has its roadies who are the stagehands who travel with the band and every venue has its own stagehands thats where I came in They played the Nassau Coliseum here on long Island and that was one of the venues I somtimes worked. When PF comes to town its all hands on deck as I recall they had 17 tractor trailers of equipment and somebody had set up all those effects nevermind all the monitors and amps Best job I ever had
I had the pleasure of seeing Pink Floyd live over several decades and every show was incredible. The entire show is awesome so you can not go wrong with any song you pick.
Fantastic concert, still state of the art light-show, special effects, quadrophonic sound. Who remembers the helicopter sound and of course the airplane flying across the stadium and crashing in the stage (safely). The crowd next to me, most of them smoking weed or something else - got my share for free, just taking a deep breath :) And then two hours of musical excellence. just can't get any better.
This song is a gem✨and Gilmour,incredible
Really glad you reacted to the light show around this. And this was only a portion of the 2 hour show. This plays a role in the song Shine on you Crazy Diamond and there is so much motorized lighting.. People really got their monies worth. The speakers next to him are spinning and if you notice there are lights and speakers so from the audience standpoint it creates a washing effect across the audience. The song comes in Waves.
It's a disco ball that turns into a squid. Gentle jab at disco which was prominent at the time this album was released 1979
Looks like a spaceship that's ready to take Floyd back to their home planet 😁
I have been to over 175 live shows and the top three shows belong to Pink Floyd. In '81, '87, and '94. Fourth place is the 1983 US festival with 30+ bands.
love watching these reactions of the pulse version, when the song ends, mouth opened, shock, thinking, "what just happened to me".. YES another life changed.
I read somewhere David Gilmour told the lighting guys here's a blank cheque do your best. And that's the result. Pretty darn awesome.
David’s voice is so beautiful and soothing. Anything from the Pulse concert is worth checking out. Try Sorrow, High Hopes and Keep Talking from the same concert for some more jaw dropping songs
Brilliant band,fantastic concert,i was there,totally amazing & mindblowing.
when I was young and this was new; we listened to permeance art discussed as prog rock.
The original Members at the Pulse-Tour was David Gilmour (Guitarre/Vocals) Richard Wright (Keyboard/Vocals) and Nick Mason Drum) the young gay at the Bassguitarre are Guy Pratt, who take the Part of the orinal Bandmember Roger Waters. If have been in the Pulse Concert at Niedersachsen Stadion at Hannover Germany. I´m less for Words till I drive home after the Concert! If have seen many very good Bands, but the musicle Art and the outstanding Lyrics and the incomprehensible Liveperformance of Pink Floyd isn´t comparable with any other Band. Pink Floyd ist the Top in all areas! It is a musicle Trip or Journey. No other Band can compete with Pink Floyd. Eric Clapton was ask from a jornalist who in his opion is the greatest Guitarrist of all Time and Mister Clapton replied: "Why don´t you ask this David Gilmour...." Greetins from Germany
This is the best version of Comfortably Numb, one of my all time favorite solos in history.
I attended one of these events in Toronto. Seeing Pink Floyd live isn't a concert, it's a monumental experience.
There are actually 3 projection screens involved with this stage/performance.
In the foreground is a full circle screen that sits behind the drums/percussion...
A few feet behind that is a half circle screen that is the full width of the stage...
The third is the walls of the stadium/area itself...
Three different levels of projection is what makes the disco ball effect "So Effective"
Sorrow is my favorite from Pulse. Whole show was killer.
One of the best things I have ever heard…
I saw them in Foxboro Stadium in '94. May 20th show as it was an additional show. Sat in section AA third row. I'll never forget the music, or that experience. The flames from the pyrotechnics were like 20- 25 feet high. Felt like being burned on a drizzly raw night.
Nice reaction! I would say a fair amount of bands did concept/theme albums probably the earliest was "Sargent's Peppers" (1967) by the Beatles and "Days Of Future Passed" (1967) by the Moody Blues, followed by "Tommy" (1969) from The Who. These usually were one off occurrences.
A full studio album review of "The Wall" would be great as I think the sound is clearer and better than the live version (lyrics would be nice to have). Actually the above concept albums would also be interesting to see you react to.
I second watching The Wall.
A masterpiece, imo.
This was the most awesome concert I just can’t describe it, there was like so much feeling
I was there....Earl's Court London 1994...incredible
Another brick in the wall from pulse concert needs to be seen
100 years ahead of time..."as usual"
I was at one of the concerts in Oslo, and was standing just over half way back. THAT moment when THAT huge disco ball appeared right over my head in the middle of THAT solo. Still gives me the chills thinking about it. And this is not the whole solo. They cut out about 2 minutes when they made the DVD. The meaning of the song is only understood if you hear the whole album or see the movie (highly recommended).
Original members here are drummer Nick Mason and keybordist Rickard Wright (sadly died in 2008). David Gilmour on guitar and vocals (criminally underrated singer) joined Pink Floyd in 1967 when their then singer, songwriter and guitarist Syd Barrett had to quit due to Schizophrenia and excessive use of LSD. (The original singer/guitarist (replaced by Barrett) was Bob Klose, who has played on the two last solo albums of David Gilmour).
Other songs from this concert? All of them. But maybe start with Time, Run Like Hell, High Hope, Sorrow, Shine On You Crazy Diamond (tribute to Barrett) and The Great Gig In The Sky.
I say it again,wont find artists like this anymore, the Ship has sailed & sunk
That young guy is Guy Pratt. He replaced Roger Waters as the bassist. He’s a very well known London session bassist and has been with Floyd for decades now
The drummer - Nick Mason, keyboardist - Richard Wright and guitarist - David Gilmour are from the Pink Floyd most of us know. Missing is the bass player - Roger Waters. Richard Wright passed away in 2008.
Hello,
Thank you.
Tony.
I am so mad I missed this tour in 1994. Never thought back then I wouldn't get a chance to see them again!
You're right, it's not just a song, it is a scene or a movement in the concept (album) which should be listened to in a one-er all the way through.
You can't go wrong watching that entire concert. So great!
Check out the finale for this concert “Run Like Hell”
Heard their first album when I was 16 & was blown away. I got tickets to see them in Madison Square Garden in 1970. It was SO amazing, they were flawless & magical...Sigh...so fortunate I got to see them in their prime, but they still sounded great here in 1994.
Bass player Guy Pratt, son-in-law of keyboardist the late Richard Wright.
In this video it’s not all the original members Roger Warters left, there is David Gilmore,Richard Wright and Nick Mason.
I was at the Cologne concert of that tour. To this day, this is the most amazing stage I have ever seen. Plus the best lightshow. Experiencing it in the audience was overwhelming. But the truly best song from it is Run Like Hell, the finale. That's when they really use the stage and the light show to its fullest effect. You should definitely check that out. But eschew the newly uploaded HD version that was recut and look for a version taken directly from the DVD, as that gives you way more views of the out of control lightshow.
If you think this stage was wild, I was at one of the original The Wall concerts in Feb. 1980 in Los Angeles. The stage show was so massive it could only be done in two US cities - Los Angeles and New York. The show was split in two parts. During the first act, the road crew brought big wooden boxes out painted like white bricks and proceeded to build a 40 foot wall in front of the band. For the second half of the show, you couldn't see them except for a couple of strategically placed holes. During this song, David Gilmour stood on scaffolding at the top of the wall. I'm over 60 and have been to many many concerts. The Wall is the only one I can remember every bit of.
I was lucky enough to see this tour while it was in the states. What I remember most is how the lights seemed almost alive. They were so perfectly synchronized with the music that they were almost another performer. It got to the point where I remember making the conscious decision to just try and ignore the lights (to the extent I could). (As an example, during the second-to-last chorus, as David is alternating between different kinds of string bends, watch how the lights alternate between flickering and more solid. That kind of synchronization between sound and light was present on virtually every song, and it's the one aspect of the concert that the video doesn't really do justice to.) Just an utterly amazing show. And that STAGE!! Even in an American Football stadium, it DOMINATED the venue.
Oh, and I've read more than once that Pink Floyd and David chose to cut about a minute and a half out of this solo when they released Pulse.
One last aspect of live Pink Floyd ~ they have always believed that it was the music that was important, not them as individuals. So take note of how many times the band members are lit from the sides or the back, as opposed to being lit from the front. It's not about them.
a minute and a half!!! I want to hear it!!!
@@luketimewalker it sounds cool but david gilmour messed up a note
The young bassist is also the band ambience coordinator
I went to see Floyd in concert, it was a light show, smell of weed, just amazing, and the crowd sang every song word for word...I was Comfortably Numb!!!!
Went to pulse in Miami orange bowl not only the production was incredible they wired the. Stadium with sound that surrounded you.
"Run Like Hell" was the encore, when I saw this tour.
SalvoG, David Gilmour (Vocals, Lead Guitar) and Nick Mason (Percussion) are the only PF Band members left but they do mostly solo work. If you are looking for another great PF tune, check out On The turning Away.
Best guitar solo ever....
