Floyd really are something special, been listening to them for over forty years now. Could you give Steve Vai, 'Tender Surrender' or 'Whispering A Prayer' a try? Any live version is best. I'll also throw in Joe Satriani, 'Surfing With The Alien or 'Flying In A Blue Dream' there's a live version of both songs from the same concert here on TH-cam. All the best from the far north of New Zealand.
Please never talk or pause During any David Gilmore solos other wise you'll get some not nice comments , just mime any if you can
@@lawrenceglaister4364 also don't spell his name wrong....
I'm a metalhead to the bone, but I have always - and continue to say - that the ending guitar solo in Comfortably Numb is THE BEST solo EVER recorded. I've heard it a thousand thousand times and it still brings a tear to my eye. Every. Single. Time.
Totally agree with you
Me too, I always end up with a tear in my eye.
Couldn’t agree more.
You are truly blessed to get that when every time . Been fifty yrs for me since I was there ( LIVE) front row- till now
And yah, EVERYTIME I STILL GET MOVED LIKE THAT- goosebumps and all.
This solo has touched me very very deep inside every single time and still touching 😢
80,000 people every night at Earls Court over 14 nights - sold out completely. The connection between Rick and David was always special.
David said in an interview that the most important thing to him about Pink Floyd was the "musical conversation" between Rick and him.
This is the Best guitar solo ever...
David Gilmore hits notes that you didn't know your sole needed to hear. It does my old heart good to see young people enjoying the music of my generation. Welcome aboard.
Soul* unless you're talking about the bottom of your shoe which has a sole.
@@eddiewinehosen6665 Careful what you say; the shoes have ears.
I am sure you weren't aware of the 11th Commandment: THOU SHALT NOT TALK DURING A DAVID GILMOUR SOLO!! 😱
Should be the first commandment
Imagine a 45 year old Brit crying his eyes out for most of this concert.
I was at this gig and was emotionally drained by the end of it.
It took me 3 days to recover.
Me too brother, I was 19 and i've still not fully recovered, don't think I ever will.
Lucky bastard! ;-]
I saw the same tour, but in Montreal...
@@robertcartier5088 Me too! I was living in Montreal back then. I fled after the great ice storm.
Saw them also in Manchester, England in ‘88. Amazing experiences!
@@essbee2316 yeah that storm was pretty hellish! You got to see them again, very lucky ! 😁
I'm so jealous.
Pink Floyd played this song to 125,000 people. One of the best solos of all time.
Just goes to show that you don’t need to shred to impress. Best solo of all time.
This was recorded at the Pulse concert in Earls Court, London. This was one of the final tracks played, the entire concert is overwhelming in a good way. So much energy and talent throughout.
MAN! I can NOT believe that 30 years have passed already! DAMN!
I hope you didn't miss the starting gun...
they don't make them like that any more. Perfect. God bless The Floyd
No question, THE best solo ever. No matter how many times I've heard this, and its a lot, it just seems to get better.
What gets me is the solo is 4 minutes long and you never realise it! An absolutely epic solo!
@@simonatkinson1107very good point! I’ve listened to it like 3 times already and never even clicked on that it was 4 minutes itself.
This is the best solo the all times
I bought my first Pink Floyd album in 1969 (Ummagumma) and saw them live in 1971 and 4 more times after that. For me This is the BEST band of all times. Now I'm 71 years old and still listen to them everyday.
this was played 14 days in a row sold out. Saw 5 times. 200,000 watts of power, 128 wireless speakers, 200 ton stage, 53 semis to move. Disco ball is a FU to music critics who said they will not make it as they don't play dance music. Remember this was 1994 and their last tour. Greg Phillinganes ( Micheal Jackson musical director) saw this and commented that they are on a whole different level.
Always had the best light shows in the business.
floyd was way ahead for the stage lighting at the shows ab great
What is happening is you just watched the greatest guitar solo ever from the best song ever from the best band ever. I can't count how many times I have watched this video or listened to this song-and I still get goose bumps. If you are not familiar with PF, I can't recommend enough that you start listening to all their masterpieces.
Thank you very much for not pausing the vid 🎉
Saw the show live in Chicago that year. Performed at an outdoor stadium before roughly 60,000 people. As if the already incredible light show wasn't enough, we had the added benefit of lightning accompanying that solo. As if God himself wanted to get in on the act. Out of body experience!! ⚡
Check out "High Hopes" live from this Pulse concert next.
And the rain going through the laser lights for one song. Incredible.
@@michaelhowell7275 they didn't allow the lasers at Soldier Field as I recall due to its proximity to Meigs Field - the nearby executive airport at the time. Maybe you're thinking of the regular lights which were also pretty powerful. Those lights and smoke, along with lightning, created its own awesome visuals.
I thought those gold lights were lasers. They sure looked like them.
@@flubblert
@@michaelhowell7275 no, the lasers are those very thin streaks of brightly colored lights you see at the very beginning of the video pointed toward the sky. Powerful enough to blind pilots if pointed directly at them. Between O'hare and Meigs Field the city considered their use too dangerous at that location and refused to give them permits to use them. They also refused to shut down air space around Soldier Field. Leaving Chicago laser-less.
But I didn't really miss them.
Every time I watch this I get goosebumps
People often say that David's guitar is singing to them. At the end of the spotlights on the ball sequence where he picks up the pace the guitar sounds like it's singing 'GLITTERBALL' repeatedly, and singing 'OPEN' repeatedly at the first reveal of the central light. I don't know if thats by accident or design, but if by design then it is pure genius.
This is the BEST concert I've NEVER been to and I've watched Pulse hundreds of times!!
The mirror ball opens to reveal a diamond that represents Syd Barrett, who's also the subject of the song Shine on you crazy diamond. Saw this tour in Atlanta, it was magical
As a classical guitarist you certain appreciate the talent and genius of David Gilmour's guitar playing. His wife, who writes his lyrics describes his music as so suggestive and she goes on to say "David speaks with the guitar"... One you would thoroughly enjoy is his rendition of "High Hopes" live in Gdansk, where they use the entire string section of the Polish Orchestra and his steel guitar solo, and then acoustic ending is truly magical and even Angelic for the acoustic solo:
th-cam.com/video/rU_k8BNCcOM/w-d-xo.html (High Hopes - David Gilmour live @ Gdansk 2006)
The stage is incredible, isn't it?
What's really incredible is that this stage was built and is owned by Pink Floyd, and there were 3 of these stages! Yes, 3 identical stages, Lighting, Rigs, Sound System, Giant Disco ball, video circle of lights, everything you see and hear,... they built and used 3 of them!
The stages was modeled after the old Hollywood Bowl, they were 180 feet long with a 130-foot-high arch.
These 3 identical stages leapfrogged across North America and Europe in 1994, during Pink Floyd's "The Division Bell" World Tour. They needed 3 stages because of the massiveness of the Tour, and the number of dates they were performing.
They played over 60 concerts in the US and Canada alone, and it took a lot of time to set up and tear down such a mammoth production, it took 3 and 1/2 days at each venue to "load in", and another 2 full days to "load out".
They had to have multiple stages to be able to do the over 60 concert dates in North America, when the band got to the city/venue, the stage was pretty much ready to go.
The logistics of this Tour was massive and unpresented att, they had 53 trailer trucks transporting over 700 tons of steel, 161 fulltime crew members it was the largest Tour ever at the time.
2nd attempt at replying 🙂, they may no longer own it. I was talking to someone who works for Britannia Row, the sound and lighting company they owned. It's now American.
He's young (18) , he didn't know they owned it.
They were always so good live. Two best shows I ever saw were Pink Floyd hands down. 4/20/88 Sacramento CA and 4/20/94 Oakland CA
Lights and effects guy: "So what's the budget?"
Floyd: "Yes."
I never realised until recently that while the first guitar solo is the character Pink's personal torment, the second is his 'concert solo'. It's key to the whole Wall album storyline as well as standing up as one of the greatest ever rock tracks in its own right. You could always watch the movie, too!
From the same Pulse Concert, check out SORROW and also RUN LIKE HELL.
Pink Floyd live. A peak experience. Been there- unforgettable.
"Amazing, oh man". Well said.
How many people are there? That's Earl's Court in London and it seats just over 19,000! Pink Floyd sold the place out 15 nights in a row at that venue which is nearly 300,000 people!
My alltime favorite guitar solo
Majestic indeeeeeed. this song is from beyond. his solo is talking to you!!!! magic
David uses so much restraint - it's glorious
To be there live, the energy is palpable. The experince .....spiritual. I have seen them twice.
best performance of the best song ever
Could listen to this song non stop!!😇
Thank you so much for reacting to this. I was in high school here in North Carolina 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. My wife loved concerts as well during that time. 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.
It is spiritual, that’s a great way to put it. Much love from Hamburg in Germany
try "high hopes" from the same concert
My farourite song and this version the best.
There is no pain , you are receding. David IS the Stratocaster Master. His sweet big bends and use of the tremolo...amazing. Disco ball had to have been shocking for audience. Mesmerizing.
I was at this show.
It was life changing!
Yes... yes it was...
Thank you, Sir. It was an honor and a pleasure. Thanks a milliion.
I was given this on VHS for christmas the year it came out and I almost wore the tape out. I then got the DVD when that became available and it is one of my treasures along with the CD of the soundtrack.
There is no comparison...
Dave hits you in the soul.
I was there that day. 😊
I was lucky enough to have been there and I have been to many concerts both before and after but this one was by far the best night ever
Best comment i ever heard " we thought he was the guy who had come to fix the boiler "
Welcome to floyd. I have been listening since 1973. Dave south africa
If you liked that, then you ought to check out Pink Floyd's track Echoes, the 'Live At Pompeii' version. 24 minutes of sheer delight.
I had the chance to see this show two evenings in a row, on (May 23 and 24, 1994) at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal.
Luckily I saw it twice, because there was so much to see and hear, it became easy to miss something.
I was thus able to see this show from two very different points of view, once up close and once further away.
cool reaction by a true music fan
was there, and the same reaction as yourself and the whole crowd, another world
Entire 🎶 "PULSE" 🎶concert on TH-cam, well worth the watch sir. Any Pink Floyd songs HAVE to be reacted to live; the show is always an added bonus to the outstanding music.☯☮
High hopes es una obra de arte
Definitely one of the most amazing stages ever. They long said the Hollywood Bowl was one of their favorite venues to play and this stage is an actual size reproduction of it. They had two full stages so while they performed in one city, a stage was being constructed in the next city and the two stage crews hopscotched past each other for the entire tour. I was lucky to see them twice on that 1994 tour.
That is pretty normal on tours like this.
Of tours I’ve seen, U2’s “Pop Tour” was comparable. But, there are few bands with Floyd or U2’s wallet or stature. Especially in the ‘90s. Who else is doing spectacle on this scale?
I seen him play at Ohio State Stadium 🏟️ Over 150 Thousand People probably closer to 200 Thousand People Easy. That's a 1 Million Dollar Light Show Equipment!!!!! Best Concert Ever and I've been to over 35 concerts. This was by far the Best Show I Ever Watched... And I was glad to be there and enjoyed my time....
I feel I should relay this story. It is not mine, but it bears repeating as it is the best description of the solos in this song.
A couple was listening to this song. The guy turned to the girl at the beginning of the first solo in the tune and said, "This is the second greatest solo ever recorded." She replied, "So, what is the greatest?" The guy turned to her with tears in his eyes and said, "It starts in about a minute."
This performance of this song is beyond iconic. Nothing will ever be like that again. I saw this show. (Not at Earl's Court... more's the pity...) To say it was life changing is to make light of what I experienced. And, this band has been changing my life since 1967.
"When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse... out of the corner of my eye."
Seen them three times and all three times was just mind blowing. I still get the 'chicken skin" when I see this footage!
Guy’s open low B string is absolutely monumental.
"Sorrow" from the same concert is possibly better - but the whole concert was enough to cement Pink Floyds place in the pantheon of modern musical greats. They opened with the song "High Hopes", something we all had, but now in todays age of cynicism and mediocrity that emotion seems unfortunately naive. I envy you discovering this music for the first time, keep going, there are so many wonderful emotions they evoke.
They everytime opened their concerts with SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND and closed with RUN LIKE HELL...always
@@65alef I saw pink Floyd before Shine on you crazy diamond was even written
@65alef - I assume you mean during the '94 and '87-90 tours. They didn't ALWAYS but usually. Sometimes they opened with Astronomy Domine in '94, sometimes Echoes in '87. In '77 Shine On opened the second set, and it was never played '80-'81.
@martinellis7156 - High Hopes wasn't played until the third song at the earliest. Some shows it was played later in the night. It never opened the show.
Anything from this show is fire!!
David Gilmour says he enjoys knowing how this makes us feel live. But he said imagine how it sounds to him as he is creating it live. That is magical.
I really enjoyed your reaction, your interpretation was very nice.
I was lucky enough to see this show in person in 1994. It will live with me forever.
Yep still the great concert I have ever attended. I was at this exact show Thursday 20th October 1994 Earls Court and yes it was bloody emotional
try high hopes from the same concert
I really enjoy watching reaction videos on this concert. I was in attendance at a different location. Amazing stage and light show. Great music. Every reaction is like being there. Thousands of people all having similar reactions. Brings back fond memories.
Thank you.
If your are a classical guitarist, you must listen to country singer, yes I wrote country, Roy Clark playing the Malagueña live, it’s mesmerizing.
Don’t let his persona fool you, he is a very talented guitarist.
Another class act to watch is Fleetwood Mac,So afraid from 2015.I saw Lindsay Buckingham do it live and it gave me Goosebumps...A similar vibe to this...Two masters of their art at their very best.
My favorite song played by my favorite guitarist from my favorite band. I saw them live in 1988 in Pgh, PA and then saw them for the Pulse tour live in KC, MO in 1995; VIP floor seats. Incredibly fortunate to have seen them twice in my life. Best concerts I’ve ever been to.
I thought it would put a smile on your face 😉

Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven live at Madison Square Gardens 1973
Dave Gilmour can make his guitar sing. That along with Roger Waters lyrics...... So very SPECIAL!
What most people don’t realise is that the full guitar solo in this concert is 4 minutes long! Most ‘Pop’ songs are shorter than that! Pink Floyd are a band where you treat the entire album as one single song and listen to the whole thing in one sitting. The album takes you on a journey through your own head!
This is a band you don’t listen to, you ‘Experience’ them. Their concerts are an epic events with music, lights and images that mess with your mind and if your listening at home Headphones are compulsory to get the best out of the hidden jewels and moments in their music.
That tour was amazing! 🤘😎
I couldn't believe what I was hearing and seeing... 😳🤪🤙
I flew from Australia just for the concert. a life changing experience, the second solo at the concert was 2 minutes longer than this version. it is on youtube but if i send the link it will be removed, just type in Pink Floyd Comfortably Numb Pulse Live Uncut Version
Great reaction, man. Ty…
Pink Floyd had an unlimited budget for the stage show. It was state of the art at the time. I saw this this tour, 4th row in Raleigh NC. The cost of the ticket was 64 bucks. How much are they paying to see a Taylor Swift show? It was about the music, not the money.
for some reason this song solo reminded me of the outro solo of Gaia by Tiamat
Another great solo is Fat Old Sun from Gilmour’s concert remember that night.
THE guitar solo of all rock history!
it's heavenly... and he's just playing it, standing there as if he's about to try and sell you life insurance...
Great reaction Brother. You enjoyed it as much as I did the first time I saw this. David Gilmore on Red and white Fender Stratocaster is a true BADDASS Wizard on guitar. He's just next level. One of the top ten for sure. Maybe top five. Pink Floyd has always been outrageous in their style of Trippy music Like your in the spiritual realm I think it's ZEPPELIN the Floyd as far as the top two British rock bands Zepp Floyd then The Stones Cream and so on.
Perfect the one
The stage is suppose to be an eye. You’ll see the eyeball start to look down and the lights focus on David Gilmore. It’s pretty cool.
Find the uncut version thay cut 1min20sec from it
You don't go to a Pink Floyd concert just to "listen " to the music. Their concerts were whole-body experiences.
I think they sold out Earl's Court 19 nights in a row and this after taking the show on a world tour!!
I love the way he laughs when he's speechless haha
That was great.How bout trying Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Free Bird” live from Oakland(I think in 1977)more amazing guitar work.
Pink Floyd and David Gilmour = GOAT.
I got to see them in about 1970. Didn't really know them Everybody was shouting ECHOES.
As someone else pointed out, this is mankind's greatest achievement 😉 👍
You want to know something funny? The entire concert is like that. Try Sorrow and Run Like Hell from the same concert.
Gilmour is a Brit, like me, and is therefore terrible at expressing his emotions but put a fender in his hands and well...
the most emotionally eloquent guitar ever!
I was there, best concert of my life. Rig took 3 days to build and was £3m, remember this was 30 years ago.. ..the most expensive ever made...but they had to have ANOTHER rig so they could leap frog venues..due to the build time.
Definitely do Sorrow from the same concert also Money, Time or US And Them. Or Keep Talking all from same pulse concert
Not sure it's still owned gy them. I was talking to someone who works for Britannia Row, the sound/lights company that PF owned, it's now American.
In answer to your question - that's Earl Court in London, and I believe the capacity was 42,000, all sold out every night, sadly for me who couldn't get a ticket :(. Every song from the Pulse concert is amazing with superb stage show. Try Sorrow next.
I was offered a ticket for £50 and turned it down , I'd pay 100X that for that ticket now
