- For me, this is the greatest version of Echoes. Knowing these are the last notes they played together on this song, hearing them drift off makes the ending even more emotional.

Isn't that just the most beautiful piece of music you have ever heard?
It melts my heart. so much emotion.
I'll think you understand the music from Pink Floyd, like it's meant to be understood!! And that's totally beautiful!!
my answer is YESSSSSSSS
There is music then there is Pink Floyd. To answer your question, yes, yes it is. Cheers!
dave said once that he felt that Rick and him were talking to each other and it makes NO since of ever playing this again without Rick. Couldn't not agree more RIP RICK
He's come through as the unsung hero of Floyd. Their voices blended so well.
@@TheThamesmen Dave wrote a song about his friend who love sailing.David Gilmour " live at Pompeii" Song " a boat lies waiting" and same concert " the blue" . dave return to Pompeii 43 yrs later after P.F, " echoes". Watch any vid from that you will be impress. " comfortably numb" with the "Black strat" 95 million views on the you tube
For me, that version in Gdansk is a truly religious experience that brings me to tears every time. It really puts you through an emotional wringer, especially knowing the significance of that performance. Way to go guys, I'm weeping on my way to bed! By the way, Blackie was Clapton's guitar. Gilmour's guitar is The Black Strat - the only guitar to have a book published about it, as far as I know. Oh God! I'm such a Gilmour nerd!
yes you are right about Blackie, soss. Did you know about teh Hendrix strap? How cool is that? from Hendrix to Gilmour..... What a track. I am with you on this and I also get all emotional. Are there any other tracks you think we need to look at?
@@TheThamesmen Sorrow from the Pulse concert 🙏🏻🎸🥁🎼🔥
@@TheThamesmen I agree with Sorrow, I think the solo is, arguably, better than Comfy Numb, although I'll quite happily sit and listen to any Floyd you want to play - my favourite Floyd track is whichever one I'm listening to, I can't pick a favourite Floyd track - it would like choosing a favourite child! I would suggest some of Gilmour's solo stuff : Short & Sweet, There's No Way out of Here and Raise My Rent from his first album are all great although all his albums are brilliant, all completely different and all wonderful 😊
@@TheThamesmen Try something about Live at Pompeii 2016. Greetings from Brazil 👊🏻😎
I remember Bowie saying the thing he liked most about Pink Floyd is the way they orchestrate a piece, it's so complete, and I can't find an argument against that...
I couldn't help but giggle a little bit when the guy on the left wondered if he'd be able to stay awake for this 25m. I didn't think he'd have a problem. Suspicions confirmed! lol
Simply no words to describe this incredible performance. All you can do is shake your head and thank whatever musical Gods were responsible for bestowing upon us this level of artistry. Simply amazing. Excellent job gentlemen!
So true.... so true. Whats next do you think?
@@TheThamesmen How about "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 1-5 studio version. Or if you prefer live, I'm partial to the David Gilmour "Remember That That Night" concert version that features Richard Wright on keyboards, and backing vocals from Graham Nash and David Crosby. Excellent performance!!
The greatest band ever..
The older I get the more I realize how good they are.
My favorite version of this song (:
Ane mine.... Are there any other songs you think I should show my friend?
I think this version is fantastic as well, most especially the outro segment which is just an emotional masterpiece. However, I also love the raw energy of the first half of the Pompeii version!
... Still great music either way!
@@TheThamesmen watch on the turning away from live 1988
Legends 😎👍🎶✨ RIP Rick Wright ✨
Same concert has a string orchestra backing. " a Great day for freedom" also "comfortably numb" has the orchestra backing up. whole concert was one of the best.
I'll check it out! Thanks Jim!
So so SO happy I was able to see them play this live.
OMG....... I am so jello..... I will never be able to hear them play this.
I don't envy you, I am happy for you.
I hope you had a great time for all of us that came after.
After dogs the deepest touching song of all time
Epic music...D Gilmour & R Wright perfect 👏👏👏🎸🎹
🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏼
So glad you did this!
So are we as it was just amazing. George here, I had never seen that version and was utterly blown away by it.
hey hey
@@glennbrock6560 Heya glen 🙃
I absolutely love this version. Tears at the end every time I listen to the last strains of this track.
i'm with you
Awesome guys
Many thanks for watching.... really appreciate it. Open to suggestions on the next track
I would have to say sorrow from the pulse live concert the solo is epic . Thanks for replying not many do
@@strongestfan9823 Yes! 🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏼
RIP Rick, top bloke, top musician. Keep going strong Dave, best guitarist ever
I agree.
Rick was the best. The reason why I play keys.
My inspiration was Greg Rollie from Santana for the keys! Be well and thanks for watching!
Way too beautiful, I don't feel worthy.
Ah, but you are
We all are. David says so.
@@TheThamesmen If he said it with that strat I will believe!
@@TheThamesmen 👍🏼
@@lynnhoffman247 He bent the note in gently at the 13.56 mark, if you listen the note says "you are beautiful. You are kind".
It's almost like you are landing safely back at home after sharing some weird multiversle experience. Refer reader to : 25:00
Wow...... I didn't realize how invested we were in that piece... You are right!!!!! Be well Digby!!
May be my favourite version of any song. It brilliant and epic all the way through… the heavy guitars, then the way the come in from the interlude with that moment when dawn breaks and the brilliant last verse which is probably my favourite verse ever written… and then that goodbye between two all friends speaking all those unspoken words the only way they know how
truly unique and magic moments
King Crimson "Epitaph" 1969
? song suggestion: Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond, Parts 1-9 (both songs)
That whole concert is a masterpiece. I think It’s David’s best ever guitar playing
Its just gob smacking!! Thanks so much for checking it out Lucas and be well!! Alex✌️
@@TheThamesmen do a video on this one
th-cam.com/video/7k07j7LcLqw/w-d-xo.html
@@tonysoprano9370 ooh that is good! Is he playing Greeny in this vid?
@@TheThamesmen yes he is
Epic seductive power and subtlety all in the same song. Another song from the same concert is COMFORTABLY NUMB .
I should eh...... I mean I really should! Be well Mike
“The older I get, the more perfect Pink Floyd are…”. That’s profoundly accurate! 👍🏼
I've long felt the same
Monumental... So emotional. The dialog between Richard Right and David Gilmour at the end so beautiful it is heart breaking. Bravo !!!👏👏👏
Hi Pierre... It's truly a masterpiece that took decades to hone in. Be well and stay tuned for more Floyd!
@@TheThamesmen Gentlemen, greetings from Montreal Canada, you guys are a great team , must be old friends. And I am sure you have heard this one before, but High Hopes from pulse ,or Gdansk or Pompeii is an absolute must.
@@TheThamesmen Indeed dacades of work. So well put. Music is wonderful but also very difficult, only the great ones can take you on a voyage like that. Words fail me.
A truely magical , emotional signature PF masterclass in sonic construction. Only right and sad that this be the final send off. He was the texture of the band.
And oh! what a moving final musical communication that outro was. Many thanks guys legends! Try Louder Than Words for another tear jerker and arguably another hair on end solo!
Ohhh..... I will check that out! Many thanks and thanks for watching. I want to do more and more Floyd as I adore being in their world.
Last step to immortality.
Just discovered your channel and have to say I really enjoy your reactions, especially to PF. I listen to Echoes every day of my life. I never tire of the journey, I always get emotional, and it is still the quickest 25 mins of my day. Loved your reactions to both the Pompeii and Gdansk versions. Gdansk obviously holds a special place because it was the last time David and Rick would play it together. Just the perfect composition, pure genius, and totally enthralling. Thanks so much!
Thanks Rob and I intend to keep in Floyd for a bit and take my friend on a few journeys. Are there any tracks you'd like to hear? Be well.
@@TheThamesmen And to you as well. A few choices: Dogs, Atom Heart Mother, Cymbaline, just to name a few. I pretty much love anything from the pre-Dark Side period through to Animals. If you happen to find some of their live performances from 70-72 timeframe, just amazing. Check out live unrecorded Embryo, there are a few performances from earlier 70's when they still played their early stuff. Enjoy and be well!
This song as far as a piece of music reminds me of something as major as Mozart's Requiem or Beethoven's pastoral! Or even like a long version of Debussy's Clair de Lune! Echoes is simply a piece of music that will transcend time!!
You know while listening to it I thought the same! It is like a classical concerto. Themes that repeat but a ‘story’ that moves through time
I love the album Meddle and I think this is a masterpiece that is timeless. Gilmour and Wright harmonize better than The Beach Boys or The Eagles. Such a great version of the song.
Coming Back to Life.......PLEASE!!!
Any particular version?
Pulse version!! Simply the best!! Just do it, and I will be tremendously grateful!!
So goooooood.....
Amazing and moving
When the ends come, I start crying like a new born baby!! And that's feels wonderful!!
EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC!!!!! WORDS GETS POOR!!
Yup, hard to describe. Just magic.
Absolutely.
Loved that track
If a group of musicians were able to create ONLY that last part, the conversation between Wright and Gilmour, they would be considered musicians of the highest caliber.
To create all of it is almost unheard of.
Almost.
Pink Floyd. Music 2.0
No puedo evitar emocionarme cada vez que escucho el inicio de este tema, y sigo así todo el tema. Es un viaje de ida, una experiencia única escucharlo completo en una habitación oscura, y si es posible con un buen par de auriculares que te aislen de todo. No necesitás nada más! solo Pink Floyd consiguió eso en mí, y creo que somos varios los que sentimos lo mismo
I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd and surprisingly I didn't know this version :-(. Absolutely fantastic and probably the best I've ever heard !!! Yes - it's a work of art! Thanks not only for this video but also for the reaction to it ...
Glad you like it! its my chosen go to
my favourite version of my favourite PF song. as far as i have seen, no-one else has reacted to it, so well done. have you reacted to Cat Stevens, yet? where do the children play, is a great song of his
George here. I love Cat Stevens. Can bring a lump to my throat every time. Good call. See if I can surprise Alex with something
The Echoes live from Pompeii video is still in my opinion one of the coolest videos ever considering it was made before music videos were even a thing.
I agree
Last time The Pink Floyd played Echoes was Knebworth 1975.
Listening right now, as I type. Many thanks. Be well.
Finally someone who has got it right I have been asking loads of people who have blogs to listen to this fabulous version of echoes you have got it right mate thank you thank you it doesn't get any better than this it's a bloody shame Richard Wright isn't with us anymore every time I listen to this I have a lump in my throat absolutely fabulous god bless you Richard where ever you are r I p thank you again
You and me B - need to share a whiskey!
-- HDPinkFloyd -- "Recording of the final show of his On an Island Tour in 2006, where he played to an audience of 50,000 at the Gdańsk Shipyard ,
the final Pink Floyd-related recording to feature Richard Wright, who died on 15 September 2008, one week before the album's official release."
A huge loss and amazing performance
Love this! To stay on the David Gilmour live performance solo road for a bit, how about Castellorizon and On An Island (they should be listened to together) from Remember That Night. Or A Pocketful Of Stones and Where We Start from the same concert. I don't believe anyone has reacted to that last two. They are beautifully emotional, introspective pieces of music. Or the studio versions of And Then..., In Any Tongue, Rattle That Lock (extended version if you can), and Faces Of Stone.
Brilliant. Thanks so much for these suggestions., This is what is needed. Off to check these out! Be well, Alex
Great reaction guys pink Floyd my all time fav band if you can listen to on the turning away live HD from momentary lapse of reason to tour
An absolutely unique band we love
David was devastated at the loss of Hook he was right in the middle of an interview when he found out Richard passed away he cried on live TV it was so sad
Damn that is tough
This version of Echoes is the best one ever. Better than Pompeii or anything. I always said that, but everyone keeps saying Pompeii. Until they actually listen to this, they think that
we are on the same thought!! Fully agree. Are there any other hidden gems you know of out there?
@@TheThamesmen check out "Marooned" off the Division Bell album. Instrumental about 4 1/2 minutes or so I think. Won grammy for best rock instrumental in 90's. There is an official Pink Floyd video to it.
The difference is Pompeii was done for Nick Mason on drums this was meant for a goodbye to Richard Wright this is the difference
I'm in my seventees and your right Alex floyd grows on you fifty odd years I have been listening to them and it just gets better and better I follow David gilmore now pink floyd as a group doesn't exist anymore and believe me it's very rewarding love your reaction you get my vote you now great music rock on
Thanks B - Take care
Who would have thought seagulls and sonar would give you chills?
Ha :) Just that one "Ping" .... They've got it down to 1 note! Be well and thanks for watching (On a side note I have a PF reaction to do, can you suggest your fav performance?)
@@TheThamesmen my fav performance is this one, Pompeii and comfortably numb live at Pulse which you already did. The ones I would recommend would be Shine on You Crazy Diamond all 9 parts, or the live rendition of Mother (1980 The Wall). Pulse's High Hopes would be nice too.
Thanks Joao!!! You're a star and be well. Again thanks for watching and commenting!
Just a wonderful summary which sums up exactly whats happening here a moment of brilliance, a sound that echoes through time. It also adds to it that a sound technician and musician both get slightly flustered in how to convey the 'journey' of Pink Floyds Echoes, its no other word but majestic
(PS having Jimi Hendrix's strap on Gilmours guitar for this performance just means something additionally special!)
I know about the strap. Polly bought it for him. So cool eh. Can Gilmour be any better in life?
I mean, this was latter day Pink Floyd minus Nick Mason. Dick Parry was there as well.
It's amazing how Floyd keep their sound intact through so many iterations. Who is Dick Parry?
@@TheThamesmen Sax player from Dark Side and Wish You Were Here. Money, Us & Them, Shine on You Crazy Diamonds, Wearing the Inside Out. Not a bad CV. Some of the most iconic sax solos ever.
I tell you someone there who never gets a mention from anybody and he’s been with pink floyd and Dave Gilmore solos since the eighties, guy Pratt the bass player his work with floyd is phenomenal his best is probably one of these days from the puls live concert, to me guy is a member of the band not just a bass player.
@@grelch Ahhh.... many many thanks... I am still learning. This is great!
❤😢
Sometimes this sounds a lot like Tubular Bells only a lot better. Meddle was released 2 years prior to Tubular Bells so we know who influenced who.
Great spot about Bells... Now there's a great guitarist!
Finally a reaction to echoes live. Thanks guys. Instant like. 👍
Thanks and be well!!
I gave 2 thumb ups 👍👍 just for the title & listening to Echoes & it’s Ricks last performance 😏
Btw if someone breaks into your studio & puts magnets on your “Wheel of For-Tune” so it lands on Pink Floyd🤔… it wasn’t me 🤷♂️
Sorry to report it died!
Il più bel pezzo di sempre .
More soon!. Thanks for being here and supporting us.

Dam Phil.... You are right. 11.11.11. 11 across the board you see.
This is as good as music gets..
Agreed
Whenever I watch Floyd reactions, I'm almost always frustrated that they are reacting to the 'wrong' version! I knooow I knooow there is no such thing as a 'wrong' version but, okay, let me rephrase it, I'm frustrated that they were not steered into the ones I'm most fond of.
For instance, when people react to 'High Hopes', they always react to the Pulse version, whereas, in my humble opinion, the 'Remember That Night' version is much superior. Or the 'Meltdown version'. (I've just checked and was amazed to see that you haven't reacted to it. Why don't you, if you'd like to, react to High Hopes, listen to both! First, 'Remember That Night' version and then The Meltdown one!)
Anyway, whatever you do, I'll be with you :) Thanks for the videos.
Okay, good call. I am off to find these and hope to get an opportunity to share. really appreciate the input as we are doing this for fun and looking to discover new things. Way more interesting for us and we are rubbish at pretending not seen something and want to have genuine reactions.
First and 'grander' version.
th-cam.com/video/JO4nzl5cZUk/w-d-xo.html
and the other one is:
th-cam.com/video/iT1Kq67m8ow/w-d-xo.html
Both very different but equally beautiful versions. It would be great you react/listen to one after the other in one video. The reason why I'm so insistent about your reacting to High Hopes is that I want people of my age, 49, to listen to these songs. Young people's reactions usually tend to be "Oh my word, the music is great" (Yes, it is), "Oh for f's sake he is playing the guitar, holding it horizantally" (Yes, he is. It is a lap steel guitar) so on and so forth... And there's nothing wrong or inferior about these responses. But I'm sure, if a person who has less time in this world than the time he/she has left behind will (would!?, damn your language is hard to comprehend) react to it differently. This song used to be one of my favourites for ages but after a divorce, a death of a parent, getting older etc, has become 'the song'.
for the record sometimes i traveled driven 250 miles only with 5 tracks of pinkfloyd of course echoes is there jejeeeje
TOOL - Third eye
Love me some Tool. Good call. Added to list. Alex does not know them at all so good place to go.
Love PF and curious when you’ll be adding Bowie to the Wheel of For-Tune?
Great choice and NOW...... Purple is off and Bowie is on!
@@TheThamesmen by the way, Bowie and Gilmour perform a lovely version of Comfortably Numb together. Bowie's singing gives a whole different tune to the song.
I love your channel!
Thank you we appreciate you being here
The problem with listening to Pink Floyd is when you stop you realise six months have passed in a joyous daze.
Or that as you get older you so realize you are only catching up to their thoughts when they were 20
the eighth wonder of the world. OMG, GOD EXIST. AND PLAY THE GUITAR
I AND IT'S CALLED DAVID GILMOUR AND Rick Wright.
Pink Floyd wrote dogs
I havce to dig a version out for George. Which version of Dogs do you think would blow his mind?
You blokes are funny.
Thank you. Hopefully in a good way!
Absofriginlutely
I wish RW and JPJ had worked together.
David is now singing the lower register and Rick is singing the higher register. Why no Nick?
No idea!
just breathtaking. then, and now.
someday, should aliens invade our planet, and then demand we justify our existence as mere humans, i'd present them with this.
confidently.
Of all the videos we have done this is really one of the most special.
Alien
Well that is a possibility!
25 min. are too short for a masterpiece.
Some little kid.... my grandpas way cooler than yours! Great vid!
HA HA
