It's a tragedy that there's almost no footage from the '70s, apart from Live At Pompeii. The video quality of The Wall Tour is poor as well, and it's never been officially released. Luckily the audio from that tour was preserved much better, and in the end that's the most important part. But hey, the '94 tour was brilliant, you should watch more of that before you give a final opinion :)
At least we have lots of audio footage. If you think that's bad, the Syd Barrett era has barely audio and video. And the small bits that do exist sound amazing, it makes you weep there isn't more. Least with the 70's shows, there's so many to hear, it's hard to get around to all of them.
Its a crime that there's not much known 70s footage to speak of,I think footage does exist it just needs to be discovered,in some production company archives or in some tv stations basements there must be some dusty gems,plus ppl don't realise what they've got or they don't realise its importance,the Grantchester meadows footage was found after 40 years on a shelf so there's always a chance.
If you have to pick a live version of Echoes, pick the one from David Gilmour - Remember That Night. That's the best one, despite what others will try to tell you :)
I was waiting for that reply :) Of course I've seen Pompeii. It's good, but it's a very stripped-down version, and it's split in two. On the 2006 tour (and in particular on Remember That Night), David & Rick turn it into a full rock song, with an amazing climax, followed by a very emotional musical conversation between David & Rick. I absolutely prefer that one.
+jordan Yes, I really like that one too. I slightly prefer Remember That Night because it's a little bit tighter, and the Royal Albert Hall is such a great venue. But it's a close call.
Pink Floyd and Radiohead.... you seem to have honed in on two of the best!! i have *literally* had to stop trying to listen to either Pink Floyd or Radiohead when i am driving.... because i sort of go all 'autistic' or something (NO OFFENSE)..... and i can NOT pay attention to the road AT ALL... i actually dont even like other people being around when i listen to either band.... because i will just end up ignoring them and staring at the wall lost in the music.
pink Floyd‘s only number one hit in the charts and it was banned in England because of their stupid misinterpretation of the meeting which was not to disparage education but rather bad education which Roger experienced himself
I had forgotten what a monster performer Waters was with PF, He adds a whole different dynamic to PF live, ...You chose this one because of that ,, So do I ,,
Unbelievably, there's almost no good live footage of their shows from 70s to 1981... This video combines an almost decent live footage with the official audio of live album "Is there anybody out there?", which includes the entire The Wall live show 1980-1981 👍
In your research, you'll know this hit no.1 in the singles chart back in the day. Ironic thing was that PF had their biggest hit while the Sex Pistols were breaking up. Johnny Rotten famously wore an 'I hate Pink Floyd' T shirt. Floyd carried on while the Pistols sank....Gilmour's guitar solo in this track turned me on to PF. I was aware of them since older boys at school had the DSOM prism cover painted on rucksacks everyone had (it was cool to paint the back flap!). I heard Gilmour for the first time and...wow...had the same reaction as you!.
I'll just add my two cents in the ongoing debate about Echoes. First, i suggest watching them all. : ) But I would start with the Live at Pompeii for the simple reason that it would be the truest representation of the band. The way one would have seen them for the first 15 years of their career. Just 4 guys on stage playing some amazingly original music. From there, knock yourself out! There's so much more for you to discover!
The links you posted are lovely, but NOT specifically what you were allegedly reacting to. Do you know where I can find that version of this song, please (as a single link?) Thx!
ok heres the deal, waters and Gilmore split up and are doing separate shows, and there seems to be a little bit of "my show is bigger than your show " going on but I found this kinda by accident, its pretty short, but fasten your seatbelt and grab on to something, you've been warned, its the intro to roger waters show, th-cam.com/video/Jvl0MDXH96M/w-d-xo.html I must say I don't care for his political views, he seems naive, and david is to laid back to be bothered with politics. watch the interviews, its about the music with him, hes very comfortable with himself........let me know..........
The best concert footage of the full show is from Roger Waters' 2012 tour of "The Wall" full concert is at th-cam.com/video/OKxt-fOCB1s/w-d-xo.html It was recorded by multiple fans over 4 nights in Chicago and put together with all the best video and sound quality that each may have had. The guy managed to pull off a very good seamless video of the full concert
there’s no doubt this is absolutely fucking awesome but you’d be surprised by some of the early Pink Floyd from the albums more and obscured by clouds some seriously fucking awesome shit which was building the base of the more famous stuff and absolutely incredible in it’s only right
Great sounding show live. You can tell it was after D. Gilmour quit smoking though cause he put on a good bit of weight. And I know you like this song but fun fact but this was the band's least favorite song because they said it sounded too much like disco
Seeing Waters role in getting the gritty and nasty into PF ,, Great music after but that was missing for me, Watch Live Echoes at Pompeii , Its a classic and the track which PF said it was where they found out where they were going after some time of trial and error, ,
I don't know if there's a lot of chance to do this, but maybe it might be possible to react to The Wall movie, but just broken up into about 5 parts. Just a thought, as i'd honestly be very interested to see how you react to the way the visuals combine with the music.
saw roger waters 'the wall' in berlin 1990' (at potsdamer platz). it was a crazy experience. more than 500.000 people. broadcasted around the world. sadly the live-sound was shit but it was somewhat of a historic event close after the fall of the real wall. we had some good days in berlin! take a look!
Can't wait for you to watch the wall movie. It'll probably be like no other movie you've ever seen. Its more of an art film than a movie.. And yes please do David Gilmour's live version of echoes. I was very fortunate to have experienced it live in Toronto in 2006 at Massey Hall and it was absolutely an incredible performance and among the best I've seen. Actually probably the best performance between him and Roger (seen Gilmour 3 times now and Roger 5 times).
You are sadly mistaken about this concert being an early one, it's near the end of the four man , original line-up. You must fimd the Truly early concerts for Dark Side & Wish tours. That was peak Floyd !
"peak Floyd" hahaha... Although I agree... I tolerate the following albums, but my "pleasure" is from the beginning up to the Wall... Final cut is... good but not so much Floyd anymore, and after that they are "just" good musicians playing hits, or producing "FM music"... Nothing really catches the "peak Floyd" as you wrote :).
I'm only starting to check them out now, and while I agree ablut them being amazing, the stuff before "Dark Side" was still very incredible. I actually prefer "Echoes" live before 1974, because then they forced saxophone on it, and tried to turn it into something it was not. (Dick Parry was amazing, but it's just not the style for "Echoes".) I mean, haven't you seen Live at Pompeii? The Syd Barrett era live was pretty killer, too, at least where Syd Barrett and Rick Wright were concerned, as they were the best musicians in the band at the time. "London '66-'67" is one of my favorite releases, and there's killer riffs on the Stockholm show, too. Unfortunately, there's little recordings of the UFO Club days, and those were supposedly the best shows the Syd Barrett era ever played. The snippets that do exist sound incredible.
PF is a band with several eras... I love the first eras, but the "post Wall" era is less interesting for me. As much as I love David and his fantastic solos WITH Pink Floyd, on his lead/solo career, music tends to become too much "easy listening" for me. Nice, talented, but missing the salt of the rest of the band, including Waters, who as bad as he can/might be on an ego level, gives more depth with the lyrics and some more "raw" side to the music.
@@garryiglesias4074 It was the natural progression of the band tho...If they continued on with Roger's style it would have gotten stale af...The Final Cut proved that...It was so monotone, and depressing that it was a chore to get through...It says alot that the only single released on the whole album was a David Gilmour led vocal, Not Now John...There were other good songs too, but all together it was just a sad affair A Momentary Lapse Of Reason isn't really that good either...It had good song just like TFC tho The Division Bell is AMAZING...It was the departure of form that Floyd needed to reawaken from that 2 album nap...Not a bad track on the piece...Not prime Floyd, but great in its own right The Endless River is just what was left of The Division Bell really...It was only released as homage to Rick, who was one more for music than lyrics...It captured his essence pefectly...It was great for what it was...Again, not prime Floyd, but it was never supposed to be...Just a farewell to an old friend who helped make Floyd what it was
This is actually my favourite part of the vid,the sounds they generate are amazing and the playing is absolutely spot on,and Snowy White playing on the second solo was fantastic,a great choice mate and to be honest I still smile like u did watching this piece.
![Pink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon (50th Anniversary) [2023 Remaster] {Full Album}](/img/n.gif)
Roger Waters has always played the bass like it did something to piss him off
You should watch Roger Waters do this live from his The Wall show a few years ago. It's amazing.
In mexico? With the pig floating around in the audience and their shredded to pieces
React to Echoes live Pompeii 1972
I read somewhere a while back that Roger recently found the original footage of this concert and it might get released. I'ma gonna look into that.
Roger water live in Berlin is pretty damn good also
I'd definitely second that.
hell yeah
David Gilmour (Floyd’s guitarist and singer) played “Echoes” on his Live in Gdańsk concert film. Better than any Pink Floyd concert version.
I went to this concert in Los Angeles...still one of the best live shows I've ever seen.
studio version of Echoes is much better, at least for me. Not that the live versions are bad, I am just more fond of the studio version.
All in all your just another brick in the wall . What a great album !
when roger expresses his anger and emotions through his singing david breaks everything down with his guitar
Nice to see Snowy White with them @ 8:41
It would be interesting to see you react to SNOWY WHITE Bird Of Paradise

@@Pulsar77 I'm glad there is someone else who agrees with me. that those 2 we mentioned are better than the Pompeii version.
+jordan Ditto. It's a minority opinion among Floyd fans, so it's not easy to get reactors' attention. Let's hope he trusts us :)
Pink Floyd and Radiohead.... you seem to have honed in on two of the best!! i have *literally* had to stop trying to listen to either Pink Floyd or Radiohead when i am driving.... because i sort of go all 'autistic' or something (NO OFFENSE)..... and i can NOT pay attention to the road AT ALL... i actually dont even like other people being around when i listen to either band.... because i will just end up ignoring them and staring at the wall lost in the music.

Could you react to comfortably numb again but this time live at live 8 when they reunited for the last time

Absolutely
a way underrated floyd album to check out is 'the final cut'
MUCH BETTER WITH HEADPHONES ! ;)
In your research, you'll know this hit no.1 in the singles chart back in the day. Ironic thing was that PF had their biggest hit while the Sex Pistols were breaking up.

Listen to Poles Apart from the Division Bell album!,
Next live at Pompeii !
I'll just add my two cents in the ongoing debate about Echoes.

No, no, no. The studio first. With EVERY song. It's a rule.
The show is much better David Gilmour is on the lead. This is a later video than1974.
Just the sheer audacity and epicness of the whole package the wall the movie the live show the double record it may never be topped
Man David looks different in the 80s.. wait did i just see 2 different guitarists? Im confused
The links you posted are lovely, but NOT specifically what you were allegedly reacting to. Do you know where I can find that version of this song, please (as a single link?) Thx!
I have a feeling that's not David Gilmour doing the solo on Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 you look carefully it looks like him but not quite
ok heres the deal, waters and Gilmore split up and are doing separate shows, and there seems to be a little bit of "my show is bigger than your show " going on but I found this kinda by accident, its pretty short, but fasten your seatbelt and grab on to something, you've been warned, its the intro to roger waters show, th-cam.com/video/Jvl0MDXH96M/w-d-xo.html I must say I don't care for his political views, he seems naive, and david is to laid back to be bothered with politics. watch the interviews, its about the music with him, hes very comfortable with himself........let me know..........

I know wave absolutely no doubt about the whole albums meaning in the movie.
No apologies l sing all day long. While l cook work drive or the super market. You get it and l enjoy seeing you have those light bulb moments.
Seeing Waters role in getting the gritty and nasty into PF ,, Great music after but that was missing for me, Watch Live Echoes at Pompeii , Its a classic and the track which PF said it was where they found out where they were going after some time of trial and error, ,
Fucking epic...wish I had a time machine sooo bad 😣
Can't believe me don't have your earphones in
Without a doubt you absolutely have to watch the movie!
I don't know if there's a lot of chance to do this, but maybe it might be possible to react to The Wall movie, but just broken up into about 5 parts. Just a thought, as i'd honestly be very interested to see how you react to the way the visuals combine with the music.
now that you've been found....... you have become another brick..... in the Wall...lol
I’m glad someone’s done a live reaction to this live performance! Absolutely genius, nice cool reaction/feedback as well!
Pink floyd, the perfection of sound .... The Gods ...
Best live concert by them. You need to react to live comfortably numb from same concert, TH-camr that posted it with best audio is Rock & Roll Spot!!!
Saw it live when I was 17. Wife was never the same again. There's absolutely no words prescription that is valid.
I'm not familiar with the songs, is this Part 1 or Part 2 of Another Brick In The Wall?
Did you notice the stage hands starting to build up the wall around the band? Large polystyrene blocks made into a like 15M tall structure.
saw roger waters 'the wall' in berlin 1990' (at potsdamer platz). it was a crazy experience. more than 500.000 people. broadcasted around the world. sadly the live-sound was shit but it was somewhat of a historic event close after the fall of the real wall. we had some good days in berlin! take a look!
This is the first time I've seen David Gilmour play a Gibson. Do Echoes live at Pompeii!
You have to see the live version at the Berlin wall when Roger Waters put on an amazing concert after the wall came down.
If you are going to react to echoes you have to check out the live in Pompeii version. Amazing!! One of these days too :)
I love the contrast between the haunting intro of the video then "Hello everybody :D"
get ready for the movie ! very special:)
Please react to Aerosmith, Train kept a rollin.
That look at 6.30 ish...LOL!
Can't wait for you to watch the wall movie. It'll probably be like no other movie you've ever seen. Its more of an art film than a movie..

Got to love Snowy White on the second guitar solo as well, had such a profound impact on Gilmour's playing.

The Division Bell is AMAZING...It was the departure of form that Floyd needed to reawaken from that 2 album nap...Not a bad track on the piece...Not prime Floyd, but great in its own right

This concert has to be from The Middle two late 80s
I wouldn't recommend watching the movie though, it's kind of cheesy.
dakrisis I couldn't disagree more,. ...wow a world of opinions, I guess.
seriously? no Gilmour? This is just the Roger Waters band. Light jazz.
I beg your pardon?
Brian Cypher Gilmore was right there.
