    My wife and I saw pink Floyd earls Court 94. Sadly my wife has passed on now. The thought of her and watching the world moving so fast past this guy brings tears to my eyes.

    I'm halfway through and between the images of the fast paced crowd and those doubledecker buses flashing by and that ambulance's siren laying a remarkable track, this is recording gold!
    Phenominal talent although wasn't expecting a background track but hey, it's Pink Floyd.
    In the 1970's they would've had to stop traffic there would've been so many people standing and watching.
    Bravo!

      Doug Hendrixson With all due respect technology has come along way with all those effects now housed in tiny boxes and relatively cheap which were not available back in the day.And if they were ,they were hideously expensive or limited to studio setups.I have basically got what he has hereDelay,overdrive,wah and most likely a looper all for under a grand.And decent guitars and amps are cheap now not the crap I first had in the 70s.This is not to take away anything whatsoever from his performance which is superb.I do solo performances which are so much easier thanks to technology.You still need talent though lol

      @@DUGGER1947 Please accept my apologies--you may be correct on this video--but, he is clearly seen on other videos playing a Gibson Les Paul edition, clearly marked at the head--I have no clue how many other guitars this man owns or has access to--in no way does the quality of the guitar detract from his skill as a musician. Another "critic" commented that he "over plays" sometimes--perhaps that is also tru, but I would have to believe that he is simply trying to make people notice his performances and his expertise while he is playing in an arena where people seem to be completely ignorant of what he is doing.

    This guy is great.. A Pink Floyd tribute band would love to has his talent. When I was 22 I was working in a warehouse, and I was friends with most. One kid there was always weird as if he didn't fit in.. but I still liked him. He said,, drop over some day and I will show you my guitar. Ok I said. I didnt expect much,, but man when he was in his element of playing a guitar he could grind out any rock song with no music sheets. He got my respect... so now if I see a performer like him I stop and listen. These people need to stop and listen. Old guy video taping is indeed a Pink Floyd fan.,, How dare they walk by this guy... I have had my door beaten down because like this guy I was so in-tuned with Pink Floyd.
