This is the best guitar solo live ever from the greatest concert in history of music. David Gilmore always play with his soul. 200 years from now people speak about pink Floyd as speaking about Mozart and Picasso.
This, plus Sorrow, High Hopes and Keep Talking from this concert are my personal faves, but every single track at this concert is a masterpiece and demonstrates their peak of live performance, in my view. I was so close to going to this in 94 but I was poor and heavily pregnant and couldn’t go. Biggest regret of my life!
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
Pink Floyd is legendary and David Gilmour is my favorite rock guitarist. I saw him perform on his solo tour in 2016, and at age 70, he still sounded amazing! For a future Pink Floyd reaction, I suggest checking out 'Sorrow' from this same Pulse concert in 1994.
You are correct about the lyrics being a conversation between two people. The first person in the conversation, the doctor, is voiced by the band members. The second person in the conversation is voiced by David Gilmour, the guitarist. The gist of the conversation is that patient(David Gilmour) is feeling sick and the "doctor" shows up to administer treatment. The commonly accepted story behind the song is that one of the band members came down with an illness (food poisoning I'm thinking) just before they had to take the stage for a show. The "doctor" is called in to give him something that will keep him "going through the show." The guy that is called the doctor perhaps isn't really a doctor in reality but actually just a guy/roadie that gives the band member some good s**t that make him higher than a kite.
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 at the time and I loved attending concerts. It was one of the things we loved doing together. My wife did the same thing during that time period as well. 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 cannot describe to you what a wonderful time it was to be young then compared to today. We were happier, relationships were closer, life was more carefree, and the music was spectacular. Our 4 adult children (28-33) love 70’s/80’s music just as we do. 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.
I’m 19, learning the guitar solo and their other stuff and perfecting it, in 40-60 years if nobody talks about Pink Floyd, I’ll make a cover band. Remind people of good music.
That was one song from that concert. The song with the Greatest guitar solo in recorded music history. Performed by a living guitar God. The most interesting part is this was the first encore. Want to really blow his mind show him Sorrow, Keep Talking, and the actual last encore Run Like Hell
Just started watching you two. Y’all got some good chemistry. Pink Floyd has been my favorite since I was a Teenager. I’m 63 now and I get a sense of joy to see younger people discovering their music. I believe music is what keeps us together. You should listen to their albums completely as they are concept albums. Enjoy your journey.
We appreciate your kind messages Doug! It means so much to us! & Likewise we love meeting others who have a deeper experience with all these old school bands and love hearing your stories and experiences! So thank you for being a part of that!
Awesome reaction guys 💯👌..would really recommend watching "Sorrow" from this same concert💯🔥 anything from Pulse concert is Awesome!! And also "Delicate Sound of Thunder concert. 🔥🔥🔥
We call it Classic and/or Prog Rock, as in progressive. Check out studio version of "Time" by them next. Do yourself a favor and get one with lyrics. They are profound! BTW, David Gilmour is the guitarist/lead singer. Some say among the greatest guitarists of all time. I can find no reason to argue.
If you want an explanation of what these songs are about you need to watch the movie "The Wall" by Fink Floyd (1982). This album was released in 1979. Entire generations have missed this music.
Andy saying that he has barely heard of Pink Floyd pains me to my very core. This is the kind of music that reaches your soul. You don't see that anymore
So much of Pink Floyd’s music is written about themselves, Syd Barret, life and their own feelings. Roger Waters wrote this about himself ( when young ) and about a real experience he had before a concert. He had been ill and not up to performing.... a doctor was called and gave him a PEP up needle......which made him numb in mind and body. His hands felt like balloons, no feeling at all.
It be like that lol! This is one video I can say I was super focused on the words and the video in its entirety. Definitely enjoyed every second! 😬🙌🏽🔥♥️ - Andy
What a beautiful discover for you, and also a beautiful reaction... I appreciate your friend just letting you discovering it with no words, I'm sure it was hard for him 😉 yes, drogs are one of the problem, especially in this crazy song... To understand, you should watch the movie "The Wall", you'll have your answers... And discover all their albums, the best band ever, so creative, with the best guitarist ever, the one who is not just a performer but also a teller stories, he speaks and gives emotions with his guitar, and the way they were playing with sounds in the 70's, a revolution. I saw that concert in France, I saw lot of concerts in my life, but this one was the best, ever. Thanks and love from France 🇫🇷😘
It's a song about when Roger waters a member of Floyd not in this line up was a child and had a fever and he said in later life he felt so close to death he became comfortably numb
Hey there. Loved your reaction. You must try reacting to other songs by them like, Time, Have a cigar, Another brick in the wall, Shine on you crazy diamond.
It's got a couple different messages. One is it's about Roger waters and how he was sick with a fever as a child. He was hallucinating and felt numb. Other is about a rock musician who needs help from a doctor to make it to the stage. Awsome song!!!!
Pink Floyd IS NOT rock & roll. they are in a category of their own. if any label "acid blues" .their name is after "Pink" Anderson & "Floyd" Council blues musicians. Watch some of David Gilmours solo work. " live at Gdansk" " live at Pompeii" . the only person to play at the Amphitheatre twice since 79 AD. Music critics said P.F. would not make cause they didn't play dance music hence: the Disco Ball
This song was written by Roger waters when he was a child he did have a fever his temperature was so high he had was dilerias and his hands felt like too 🎈 he as an older person had a fever the same and it had been before but the doctor is not hearing him and gives him some drugs when he got on stage he felt nothing he became comfortably numb.
Dude on the right was pretty stoic relative to the emotive masterpiece the song is and the performance. Micro expressions, facial expressions, body language= the gravity of the song was lost on him. Shame.
This is the best guitar solo live ever from the greatest concert in history of music. David Gilmore always play with his soul. 200 years from now people speak about pink Floyd as speaking about Mozart and Picasso.
who is Gilmore??? it would be Gilmour, right?
@@mranonymoUs23384 you make a very serious observation... For all things you can say you chose that??? Simple person that you are.
@@basilhsgalanis8838 respect it's to call for the right name those we love... simple man!!
@@mranonymoUs23384 oh that is the point for you. Everybody understand for who I'm speaking to ,that is there real point Mr.
@@basilhsgalanis8838 ok, if you say so..
Bye baCilhs galaMiss
All of the songs from this concert are incredible ......Sorrow....One of These Days.....High Hopes......Another Brick in the Wall and the list goes on
Great Gig in the Sky

@@ginjamutha This was also a big regret of mine that I wasn't able to go. Plus the Led Zeppelin reunion concert in 2007.........couldn't get tickets
High hopes with Dave at slide time is amazing.
The best solo in live of the history.

The conversation is between a doctor and his rock star patient. Look up the lyrics, it will help to explain what's going on.
and Pink building an immense brick wall around him, shutting himself out from the world

You have all the other bands...then you have PINK FLOYD

Category.... is Progressive Rock / Psychedelic Rock / Blues Rock ....
Or to keep it short it's "Pink Floyd" man😂
Pink Floyd have their own Genre in a certain way, especially when it comes to the guitar and Keyboards. The vibe is unmatched
Ahahah appreciate it Phil!
I love nothing more than seeing someone react to PF live performance for the first time
Thanks Dave! We appreciate you watching it!
I’m 19, learning the guitar solo and their other stuff and perfecting it, in 40-60 years if nobody talks about Pink Floyd, I’ll make a cover band. Remind people of good music.
Sounds like a great idea Dillon!
You need to listen to "Dark Side of the Moon."

Thank you so much Isabelle! Shoutout to you and the rest of France.
All Floyd songs are about getting you to contemplate your own life.
Interesting! Can't wait to hear more ahaha!
My first time watching your reactions, won't be the last.I enjoyed it very much.Keep them coming.Have a good day.
Thanks Michael!

We're glad you enjoy the video and format! 😎🔥❤
Concert hall - Earl's Court in London. Capacity of 20,000
Sheeeesh that's a lot of people!
Aerosmith - Dream On. Studio version.
Watch and react to the David Gilmour Live in Pompeii concert. A 70 yr old man, playing this exact same song after a 2 hour concert.
That’s insane! 😱🤯
Hey there. Loved your reaction. You must try reacting to other songs by them like, Time, Have a cigar, Another brick in the wall, Shine on you crazy diamond.
And definitely don't neglect Shine on You Crazy Diamond Pt 2 like so many reactors do.
Thanks Prashanth!
I alove my self one comment per week, the gut on th right got it right
Thanks Niklas!
May you react to Santana, Woodstock, Soul Sacrifice? Thank you!
It's got a couple different messages. One is it's about Roger waters and how he was sick with a fever as a child. He was hallucinating and felt numb. Other is about a rock musician who needs help from a doctor to make it to the stage. Awsome song!!!!
Thanks for clarifying it up for us Jeffrobodeen!
Wondered how long it would take for the smile.
Haha did you count 👀
@@SimplyTwoDudes nope... but I knew it would come eventually.

The best guitar solo of all time from David Gilmour
Most say comfy numb guitar solo is the best. I think Sorrow is best. Just my opinion
That's how the white boys do it guys. Pink floyd one of the greatest bands of all time. Nuff said
The solo from Sorrow from this concert is better. Just my personal opinion.
1 song how about the rest of the show!
Dude, you took him out of the moment.
This song was written by Roger waters when he was a child he did have a fever his temperature was so high he had was dilerias and his hands felt like too 🎈 he as an older person had a fever the same and it had been before but the doctor is not hearing him and gives him some drugs when he got on stage he felt nothing he became comfortably numb.
