100% agree.

Beautifully said by EVH!

As a Brit we celebrate "less is more!"

Well said

Very well said!

max haokip 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

My Favorite Song Of All Time. This REALLY Does Take Me Back To The 70,s

Maureen Brown your generation had the best bands ever. It must have been such a privilege to witness these musicians live

Go dad 🤣🤣🤣

Max, you're dad is absolutely in the right!

Makes me cry with the fender. My leaving song if you know me you'll know what it means to me

I'm 75 and I agree 😊

Anche io la penso come te ciao coscritto

Even Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Paganini get on their knees when they lissen this..............

Me too. Simply the greatest version of the greatest rock ballad ever gifted to the world.

If you know chording & phrasing, the FIRST solo is that achievement 😂

Very funny!😂

My dude so do you

ah you men of culture!

8=======D

You too friend.

@@jordiduran4499 gey

Hair standing up on my arms every time

I could watch this every day all day and still die a happy man. After I got sober, 13 years ago, it took me awhile to get back to Pink Floyd. Now I have much better appreciation for their work. Hell, I still listen to Radio K.A.O.S. from Roger Waters.

exactly!

Ahem to that. ☺

It makes my heart happy to know so many appreciate this music.

well said

I totally agree

Brilliant comment

❤

That's fucking cynistic. But it's brilliant. :-)

Man 1972 Floyd concert!!

lmfao

Wish I could feel that Good.!music is Magic. When they put everything in, it and then some 🤗

I'd be honored if David Gilmour fans would take a listen to my piano & vocal performances of WISH YOU WERE HERE and SLIT SKIRTS by Pete Townshend on my YT channel in tribute to the masters of lyricism and composition. Done live with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.

Goddamn that gives the chills to tears every time . Theres something ethereal to this

the best solo i ever heard, its touches the soul, gives goosebumps

You are right and it feels good to hear David Gilmour play guitar. He is one the best Rock Guitarist on our planet.

what did you fight for?

@@gege4707 I didn't fight. I was in the Cold war. 1974 - 1985. Defending against the threat from the Warsaw Pact

Thank you for your service

@@gege4707 Work all the life is also a fight.

🤣❤👍

😂😂😂

😅

I vote this one as best comment.

sick!!😂

Is

It is

Kaleb Krail it is

It absolutely is!!!

I second that view, it's amazing - god like.

how could you not be , this is the best solo ever made ever

It seemed to me that I was the ONLY ONE who got on this! I was buzzing off him. I don't see how that isn't the most noticeable thing about this video, after the amazing rendition by David Gilmour (in a league of his own I believe. The man is early 70's here cool as ya like, no bouncing about giving it ego as most) I had to bring it to every person's attention I've watched it with. As one post here says yea look who he's playing with. I said that smile is him saying"WOW I'm Drumming with DAVID GILMOUR...!!!!! Soon as I seen him. Love this version

Looks to me like David's having a high time too. Not so many grinnings but plenty of picking!

Maybe he is! ... Who knows? 😂

Si yo estuviese allí, también lo estaría.

I don’t have one, but I like the song lol

@@hugowaltner1677 it was late when i listened you feel this energy

Patrick Sautron what is that supposed to mean ? I’m confused.

Said it all.

@michael lee I am LoL beyond my control and I thank you for that😂😅🤣🤓🤓

Maybe some of them aren’t….🧚‍♂

But did they he may be a chanel

Same with me & my son, he's 23. 👍

No todo está perdido si piensas y sientes así, chiquito. Esto es increible realmente. Y agradece siempre a papá por haberte hecho escuchar esto!

What a great gift from your dad!

True that 💯

His voice isn’t bad either.

I am getting a guitar because of this man

That's because you know what's comin'!

Marcus Jahnke oh hell ya hes got a killer voice

On my option, this should be somehow 120% or more on guitar part. ;-)

I’ve heard both 👍

Yes indeed 😊 FINE WINE 😍

Seriously insanely talented

@Mind Control Experiments lol

💯

the first one is great second one is overrated

I’ve never disagreed more in my life. Do we have the same ears?

Probably not, mine are human.@@dereksiegel255

THE BEST GUITAR SOLO.....EVER !!!!

Same as live8 not a note out of place the whole set, never be matched will Floyd.

Damn Straight!!!

I hear you brother

Yes Gilmour is one of the best a Legend.

David ❤

Hope you have many more years to enjoy the Phenomenon called Pink Floyd! Take care and best wishes!

me too 73 ans

@@teichezgege8301 keep rocking!

Yes

so true

I never saw a drummer having so much fun, and i've seen some pretty high times up there on the stage.

It looked like he was getting tired at the end lol

YEAH he was eating it up

Nick Mason..... 👏

@@melmayhem6001 Nope

Oh 2zh6ñ

History not needed.

Counterpoint: The time solo

Was = is....

I have asked my self .what song can you listen to for internty ??? It's comfortably numb.i don't think it's the greatest David Gilmours best solo but is the context of the song .it's truely the greatest mean .he's like Michael Angelo with a 🎸

Well yeah, bee playing with david Gilmore that would look good on your CV.

David Gilmore belter on that carter

The drummer had dental surgery earlier that day and his mouth was frozen numb in smile mode.

@@thedorp lol, yeah sure does look like that.🤗🤗🤗

Yes living the dream, can you imagine? The problem is there would be nothing in this life thereafter that could compare to that moment. I wish I had know about this concert before hand, I would have been there. Wish they would do it again, but probably not. I stood in that place 40 years ago, what a perfect environment for that masterful music! Thankfully this music will live on forever in recordings.

kaan yeşildal i’d be happy to just be one of the dancers on stage with a legend 😂

So would I if I had the chance

I agree

I would breath my last

His in heaven

your father was a... smart man!!

Totally agree !

I love it, amazing just💐

A wise man preach.

can`t say blame him

So true...

Yep

"Echoes" for me is a short song 😀

I like a 1 hr

Oh Yeah...so true

He's got a naturally "smiley" face, but most of the time it really does look like he's thinking "THIS CANNOT BE MORE AWESOME!!"

Ist auch meine Lieblingsstelle😊❤

He knows he is in the presence of greatness.

Comment spot on. Hammers of history in music!..happy to be 300 in Comments

You too be safe!

I hope he'll play some more decades ... i've spent so many hours with Floyd in my ears (studying, driving, dreaming ...) for 45 years i guess !

ALL SHOULD LISTEN TO THIS

You too

@@jeanfrancoismonier thats right my guy, i feel exactly the same but im just 27 and yet i really want to experience David Gilmour live some day, i just love all they did as a band and what they did later also in terms of live performances it would be thrilling and amazing to meet fellow pink floyd fans and just enjoy a concert together with them :)

That made me laugh - so true

Made my day 😂

Truth was spoken

Gold

Yes indeed

He is like "mommy, mommy, look I'm playing with Gilmour"

He looks pretty much younger than David so I think Pink Floyd had its best times when he was young

Absolutely agree with you dude

Thats definitly James Hetfield

No, not at all

U r not alone ma dear I'm here by ya side were pinkflyod is.luf from manipur kuki.

Always listening

And to think that we can watch/rewatch this at our leisure. What luxury.

We all are let’s hope Roger and David make a pact soon!

Me, Flávio. From Santa Catarina, South of Brazil.

RIP 🙏

Rest In Peace to your grandfather.

R.I.P

If his favourite band was Pink Floyd, he is in a really good place rn :)

Thanks for making me cry, jerk. 😢. jk. RIP to your awesome Papa.

yes!!

Eugenio Garrido my thoughts exactly!!

I have seen this live multiple times and await it again

I just hope selling some of his guitars doesn't mean that he will not tour again. It would make sense tho.😫

I would die the happiest man of all time if I could ever witness such greatness

ain't that the truth

A gift as it is!

Max Murphy Amen brother!👍👊✌️

I like em especially after smoking weed.

Max Murphy Agree

Awesome

What? I thought it was Gangnam Style.....

@@isagunalay5602 What we are seeing and hearing is a man's soul flowing through wood and steel... A couple other versions, where at the end Gilmour makes that Strat absolutely scream with anguish and despair is like nothing I have ever come out of a guitar before. A guitar player poster on one of these vids said that he didn't even know what the sound was...he had zero idea how that sound was made on guitar. Name them, Page, Clapton, Van Halen, whomever, for my money while all those top players are phenomenal players, Gilmour is transcendent. SO much raw emotion in this song. IMHO no one comes close.

@@jamespobog3420 anytime I listen to a really good guitar solo and I mean a really good one it just feels like im seeing into the eye of the universe in a way. Its very few dong that have made me almost cry because of all of the emotion being put through the instrument in a such a raw and visceral way. Maggot brain, weight of love and comfortably numb are those songs.

@@freshlypouredbingwater7913 Yep, know what you mean. There are actually a few songs that to me are borderline unbearable. Boys of Summer. Travelin' Soldier (Dixie Chicks...not a fan of them tho). The Flame (Cheap Trick). Ain't Missing You (John Waite)... et al. All extremely painful, yet they are all great songs...

Releve toi..... Tt n'est pas fini.... Ça commence 😊. Vit

And what an amazing tribute this is!

So sorry for loss x

I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry my friend... RIP

Rest in peace

Not maybe. THIS IS IT! PERIOD! FOR ALL TIME!

🙏

Agreed, the greatest of the greatest!!

Idk that solo from Another Brick in the Wall on Pulse is also pretty magical, the bass kicks in with slap part before playing an extended version of the solo. But yes, cherish David and I mean that. His soloing and the way he plays helped me build myself up as a better player, myself. Easily top 3 guitarist for me , of all time.

Sorry guys, I'm 71yo and was around when Hendrix was alive!😆

Joseph Novit xand he can sing..oh jeez david, please do not die

@@normatible9795 I am 73 and listen to him almost every day ...he is a Legend and his music will live on

unbelievable ! My hero musician. If I am a billionth of him I'll be something special lolol

@@normatible9795 he's 73, not 90... at 73 you still have a lot to live

Damn near makes ME cry !!

Agreed. It encompasses all of his blues roots along with all of his own, unique voice and skills.

History of rock, perhaps, but there's Pat Metheny in jazz-rock, and Mike Stern, did you hear about that guy?

Absolutely agree 👍

Hmmm! Debatable. Far too many to compare with. Gary Moore played a few.

to me high hopes solo is better

And The Greatest Big~Daddy Of *ALL~TIMES*

@@nathanjones2447 yeshhh

Not coolest But CLASSIEST !

@@souvikchatterjee5920 yea but just imagine if you had an uncle like gilmour.A person who is cooler than most of the teens,not becuz of his style but because of his talent with the guitar

I think David Gilmour is the coolest dad ever

And then some Ernest!!!

It is THE greatest

You mean the Universe .

Totally amazing always listening to it

Yep

Love the talented man

Yes, not to mention it's only the 2nd day of the month...

Once a week for an emotional hit.

My first, I've been gone to long. Excuse me, I've got to go dust off a friend and light up another. Time to become comfortably numb.

Lol yeah😎

Hello yes

I have played it more than a million times!

Crank it up!

@@Nick3an ok

Play it everyday... multiple times

You can see everyone smiling except Gilmour because he’s super focused on this epic solo.

Yes

Time of his life

Time of his life

@@robertemerson1087 he's in another world, the solo just comes out of his fingers

Breaks my heart every time I hear it.

Me too

truth

I cried too! 😭

Lol that's how feel😅

Mucho bueno

Agreed

They have been playing that solo for a very long time, still amazing tho

They are all swimming in the groove they are making, just to serve this solo. They are spectators just like we are. They just get to add more glorious sounds to the solo of solos!

Wouldn't the greatest moment in history be the beginning of the universe, this would be a close second though

It's not Oasis but yeah it's biblical

the incomparable Steve Distaislao

@@matejc3281 wouldn't u

Woody81 I would be ecstatic, literally vibrating.

That smile at 4:08 says it all.

He's totally fanboying out, as anyone who knew anything about music would be. Anyone who wouldn't be geeked about being right there, right then is a lost cause.

Snap

I have been listening to Pink Floyd for over 35yrs .... It is not going to stop because of a Pandemic. 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 Stay Safe Everyone ! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

@@h2oboateryep great music just keeps on going , doesn't stop 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Yrah, never get tired of it, the more the better, thank god for pink floyd and mr David Gilmore.

That black stratocaster 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤗🤗🤗🤗

I was there with an AAA

Ppl r ppl.. They don know what they r disliking... 🤣

a lot of them probably hit the wrong thumb .

if you dont like it,you dont have to listen to or disrespect such a master of the guitar

That just goes to prove that there are at least 15,000 stupid people out there!!!

these 15K people don't exist for me.

Become experienced;)

Smile laughing that's so great ! Thanks for the message !

I think he is hot and cute

Holy sh*t, that's so true, it just hypes it up so much!

You've not seen me then!

I'm going for the third time shortly!

. If you had forgotten you would have been dragged down to the 7th circle of hell for eternity

dont let it happen again lol

Reminder: are you here today?

I watch a couple times a day... takes us all somewhere regal, incredible music.✌️❤️

He looks like he having the time of his life...

And the bass player, the band have the best seats in the house!

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

I would sell my soul to be able to see david gilmour play live. I cannot even fathom what the people on stage feel ♡

@@leahlebangood , i saw pink floyd live in 1994 in foxboro stadium in foxboro MA in the USA, during the division bell tour. 1994 was great to me. Probably the greatest year to me. PINK FLOYD IN MAY, WORLD CUP IN JULY. All in the USA

Cool thing is we've got more cred than our kids for the music of our generation! 👍

Ya think?

He had high hopes

totally agree skanoza they just all knitted together he just loved playing drums in the band

Every single person in Pompeii at that time was gilmoured

Steve distanislao. Great drummer

ikr

hahahahahhahaha good one

So you’re a 3 year old or your name was changed and btw I know it’s not really your name

@@avishoshan4047 :(

Gurke it was 3 years ago

XDD

I am fell that..

If you listen very carefully, you can hear some of them sing the first few notes.

YES.

Is like a guitar hero! 😁

@trippyforever I have. Not talking about pink Floyd though. I don't know much about them.

I watched this on acid and it was an absolute sensory overload. I could smell all the colors of smoke during the chorus. A bit scary but very cool

All computer done, nowadays. Just like all the choreography in fireworks displays. I’m absolutely not pining for the old days of concerts in the least .. the swaying lighters .. the lighting up of joints you pass on down the line .. followed by the fifth of Jack Daniels .. those were the days 50 years ago lol

You can't, David is the one and only

I know I can't. I don't listen to anything else now.

Lol, right? I had another song queued up after this one, but I had to close it...there's just no point lol.

Incredible, isn't it? There are three superlative things in play here. His voice, his guitar, and his empathy. Each would stand on its own, to have them all in one unit is sublime. What a talent!

LawlietNao i agree!! is imposible 😟
