![Didn't expect that 🎸to bring me to TEARS 😭| Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb (Pulse Concert) [REACTION]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QWslibUABM8/mqdefault.jpg)
People always look at that Beatles gig on the pub roof as something revolutionary and here were these dudes, in the middle of a roman amphitheater of a volcano ravaged city rocking their brains out for almost 2 hours for posterity and eternity, with no audience but ghosts.
Always ahead of their time. Always.
The Beatles roop top gig showed how damned good they were, but they knew it was kind of over. This is when Floyd mkII came alive, pointing forward to a decade of magic..
@@janhanchenmichelsen2627 as someone said below, and rightfuly so, a band on the cusp of greatness.
@@davsaltego for some reason that always looked like a pub to me :D
54 years old here, you're right.
I have always wondered if all the footage captured by the multiple cameras in use here exists somewhere. I bet it doesn't, but it'd be cool to see.
To me Nick Mason(the drummer) is the star of this performance. Everyone is feeding off of him and the whole groove relies on him. One of the most underrated drummers of his generation imo.
Well... That's the function of the drummer. And I don't think he's underrated. Through the years, he's been asked to participate in dozens of projects. To me, Nick Mason is the King of the Pause.
Mason is the protagonist. A champion of percussion and without crust.
he is THE GLUE. unbelievable drummer.
Well let's be honest about something. It's pretty difficult to stand out as a drummer while the Greatest Guitarist ever is standing next to you no matter if you are the Greatest Drummer in the world.
@@God-damned-xe9xn Right... But now think about the drummer of Blondie, hahaha!
The fact that these guys wrote this while in their early twenties.....just wow. And it will hold up forever.
late 20s they were about 28 when this was released
Yes dude the music "time" like the lryics is so deep look like they were 40,45 years
legend, timeless
@@rayenhenionly roger was 28 the others were 25
😅 you know it bro keep it up!!
Nick Mason is criminally underrated. Where to put the notes is just as important as where not to. He was the perfect drummer for Pink Floyd
Agreed - and funnily enough I think Waters is underrated as a bass player when I look at this.
They were all perfect for each other.
All of them flawed, all of them imperfect, but together, perfection.
Competition between young professionals made this sound!
Echoes live at Pompeii is so good it's almost spiritual
My favorite version of that song.
I prefer studio version
It's also the same for me, the whole performance has significant meaning in some spiritual sense, For me personally, there are only a handful of performances that hit me in ways I can't describe, and this is at the top of a very short list of performances.
you can remove "almost". ❤
That guitar solo has hair on it. It is mind blowing!
My father served in the Soviet army. He was stationed in Stettin/Poland for two years. A mechanican for the Migs. He had a good relationship with the political commissar. Every now and then my father would help him with difficult tasks around the polit commissars house. One day the political commissar wasn't in the house. My father found a good stereo system in the living room. When he turned it on, there was a Pink Floyd record in the system. He listened to them up and down for hours. He said he had never heard such brilliant music. When the political commissar caught him, he just had a smile on his face and said he could keep listening. It is worth it. My father never stopped listening to Pink Floyd. One day when I was 8 years old he gave me a cassette recorder and a Pink Floyd cassette as a gift. It was the "Delicate Sound of Thunder *Live". I loved it immediately. 30 years later, I still listen to Pink Floyd a lot, and of course in the car too. At some point when I brought my 7-year-old daughter to school she asked: "Dad, can you please play that one song where the woman sang so beautifully?" She wanted the song “The great gig in the sky”. Of course I turned on the song immediately and had to smile. What a long and winding road this music had. Pink Floyd was passed down in my family like a precious heirloom. Pink Floyd will always have a place in my heart.
Love that..."passed down" Same when my Dad passed it on and I to my kids.
He just smiled! Thank you ! We all smile with him!
Great story!
I love U
I love U so much, Jenna.
If this song does not give you goose-bumps, I don't know what will. One of the most mind blowing performances ever, no one is better than Pink Floyd! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
Beam me up Man !!
Completamente unos genios
One thing I have always loved about their music is that even when there are just instruments playing, it still feels like it's telling a story. They have been my favorite band since the 70's.
The great Arnold Steinhardt, who played first violin for the Guarneri String Quartet, wrote in a memoire that every piece of music tells a story, even "May Had a Little Lamb." The challenge for any musician is to discover that story and tell it in their own way. In the rock world, the ability to do that is what sets David Gilmour apart.
Exactely👍
Imagine being a 14 year old girl and going to see them at the local theatre in Liverpool to hear DSOTM...1974..😳 My brother took me for my birthday..😊 they did Echoes as an encore..❤
Fantastic.
I also saw that tour in 1975 in Los Angeles California. My first concert of any kind ever. Floyd played all of DSOTM, most of Wish You Were Here & Animals...Shine On, Gotta Be Crazy (Dogs), Raving and Drooling (Sheep) & Have a Cigar... and of course Echoes as the encore. Safe to say we saw the best Pink Floyd tour ever. Unfortunately, the LAPD raided the arena and I was arrested on the 3rd of five nights...but that didn't stop me from going back for the last two shows!
Wahoooooooooo 😊🎉😊
Omg you have no idea how lucky you are😭😭
@@huffle-bloodprince247 only now do I realise that. 🙄 I'm from Liverpool UK, the youngest of 8 and my older siblings used to go and watch the local bands in a club called the Cavern .the Beatles among others 😀 my mum used to go to the local bingo hall with Ringo's mum 🤣
This was a band on the cusp of worldwide greatness, this performance is amazing.
I saw them live then they were struggling for survival ,,,,
They were already great. People just hadn’t noticed yet. 😉
Agree. I saw this first time in Poole Arts Centre on a big screen, venue PA during a week of music movies. Blown away by it.
When I eventually got it on DVD I ripped the audio so I always have it with me.😀
@@kevanbodsworth9868. . . which certainly factored in to their music being as compelling as it was.
@@grelch So much so that they were walking out in large numbers,..Many have to be told something is good before they notice,,Also PF did to meander working up the piece on tour,--
They are all fabulous but Richard Wright on keys really adds something special ❤ RIP Richard ❤ You enriched are lives ❤
Wright never got enough credit as one of the greatest avant garde musicians of all time!
One of the guys that inspired me to play keys.
He was a great vocalist, too. Not so much as the lead, but doubling the lead, especially David Gilmour. If you go back and listen to "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn," his vocals are almost as critical to the sound as Syd's.
Richard Wright has always been my favourite prog rock keyboardist. As opposed to some of those "noodling" artists like Rick Wakeman, Wright's playing was always measured and on point. Much like Gilmour's guitar playing, they never tried to show off, they just went for mood and perfection in their playing.
The contrast of Pink Floyd playing an ampitheatre, a place where, in history, people had their hearts ripped out, but now it's the ones in the arena who are ripping the hearts out of the audience.
Que lindas palabras👍👍👍👍
The first performance in the ampitheatre since AD 79. The Floyd playing to the ghosts. Simply indescribable
nice
probably the best piece of music ever filmed.
Unfortunately lot of records were lost
"Toward the within" by Dead Can Dance on DVD is a similar experience. Yes it's another style and not such good quality like Pinke Floyd, but the soul of it is the same. Check it out, give them a chance.
I have spent my life writing, and in 55 years of living I've never found the words to adequately explain how amazing this song and this band is.
She said it: this band take peole to space😀
This reaction is very special. Can see it in your eyes you absolutely get it. This music is beyond beautiful. It’s music that takes you away, if you let it. You should let it.
Nice going! I'm an 80-year-old guy and remember the first time I heard this like it was yesterday. I was in my mid-20's, stoned, lying on the floor at a friend's place while listening on a pair of very good headphones. My reaction then was the same as yours here. I was amazed, emotional and stunned by the beauty of it all. Pink Floyd holds a place all its own in R & R history. And to think, there wasn't even a "Dark Side of the Moon" yet. Those days were magic. I love watching you youngsters discovering the music of my life. Kudos!
I'm not far behind you in years and had a very similar experience of hearing this for the first time , happy days !
I'm 64. I saw this film in a little local cinema, high as f, about 40 years ago. My first time hearing "Echoes" and it still resonates. Love the original version on "Meddle", but I NEED to get this film on blu-ray.
I am a mere youngster at 68 but your second sentence sums up my experience perfectly. I am forever grateful that I lived through these wonderful decades of exceptional music. Keep going matey!
Я из СССР . Мы обажали и любили Пинк Флойд. Музыка моей молодости.
It was... How can I Say??...
'a saucerful of secrets'.
The patience and restraint of Pink Floyd is wondrous.
That's a great point
Masters .. of time ...
So ... the life the emotion 🙏
Their timing!!! It’s beyond description
Through all those years the lead guitar still melts faces. They're in the zone dude, what a band and what a location
Mason is vital in Floyd. Seeing him recently with his Saucerful of Secrets tour, it’s clear his hypnotic and imaginative drumming style plays no small part in their sound.
I have had my family under strict instructions for decades,
if I ever end up in a coma, then they play this soundtrack on a constant loop through headphones,
because if there was ever a sound, a noise, or a note that would reach me in a coma, then it's this.
Back in the 1970's, groups like Pink Floyd caused a *tremendous* amount of high-end stereo equipment to be bought. 🙂
Indeed. In 1977 I was a teenager sacking groceries at the local supermarket after school and on weekends. That year, I saved all I could to put together the best stereo system I could afford - Infinity Qb speakers, a Dual direct drive turntable with a top-of-the-line Shure cartridge and a Pioneer SA II integrated amplifier that put out a very clean 100 watts per channel. It cost me about $1,200 dollars, which in today's money would be about $6,000. Worth every penny to play music like this.
as an audio guy that warms my heart. Stuff like this deserves a good setup.
😊😅
Lol my dad was an audio file from the 50's so by the time man walked on the moon he had amazing for the time equipment. Then when I was 10 or 12 I was caught up in the gear and ran with it until the 80's. Still have a bunch of the 60's and 70's gear😊
@@paulm749u lucky bastard, well I guess. You indeed earned it , 1200 usd , lots of weekends .
I'm 66 and was listening to this before you were born...They are Gods in the rock world. Really enjoying you reaction to this song, this band.
Whoever directed this pink floyd masterpiece should of won an Oscar.. the band are on another planet but the filming and the sound engineer are absolutely amazing..
My favourite Pink Floyd track, with the interplay between David and Rick, the Echoes, being perfection ❤
Have you heard the one recorded in Gdansk 2006? This is great, that one makes me literally cry. In a good sense.
@@AlessandroGenTLe Yep. The last time it was performed live. Since the death of Richard Wright in 2008, David Gilmour has said he'll never again play it live.
“It has a different color now”
What a great way to describe the change in the groove at 7:54
I humbly suggest going to the same timestamp in a properly synced 2001:A Space Odyssey video rescored to “Echoes” and see what happens.
The groove has changed, It has got a different colour
@@pasqualemuzzupappa1991 And a different feeling.
I absolutely love your reaction to Pink Floyd Echoes. You didn't stop it at all. They took you for a mesmerizing trip through the universe in 20 minutes 😁. And you weren't even high 😎. Feel me? They are the GOAT.
Whoever's idea it was to organise this show at Pompeii and to film and record it so brilliantly is a genius. I feel extremely lucky that I am able to see this never mind that is exists at all. It is an utter work of art on all levels.
Philip Maben was the director
It smells of Roger
Comparto contigo q es una obra maestra....saludos
Been listening to Echoes for 50 plus years now and it still sends shivers down my spine…loved seeing you enjoy it too.
This was my favourite version of Echoes untill i found "Live in Gdansk" it was the last time David and Richard ever played the song before he died. Knowing the backstory makes the last 3 mins an absolute tearjerking masterpiece 👌
Never really been a fan of this version, but the Gdansk version is just astonishing. Love those last 7 lines,
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky
Gilmour is the most tasteful guitarist ever! Not the fastest. His bluesey, funk, is the best. Name another guitarist who can do it better.
The outtro from the Gdansk performance is pure musical poetry
both this and gdańsk are good but, sadly pompeii has terrible audio quality, and a lot of hissing sound too, i hope one day that it will get a remastered version
The Gdansk performance was the last time David played it live. He said without Richard it lost all its luster for him. Plus I find that a fitting tribute to a long time friend and bandmate.
No matter how many times I listen to this performance, no matter who's commenting or reacting to it, I will never tire of watching Pink Floyd play "Echoes" Live at Pompeii!
Yeah .... Her reactions are pure ....
Most beautiful and touchin' react I've ever seen. You just have a sensitive soul. Rock on. *
Si me encantó tu respeto y tú expresión lo dice todo....
Best band of all times. You don’t listen to Pink Floyd, you fly to another dimension. This was record in 1972, I was 12 years old.
That's Right!!!!!! Ricardo, another Dimension!!!!!!!!! I Know!!!!!!!! I'm 70!! Still Rock n Roll!!!!!!!
I can barely even recall a time when the Floyd, their lyrics, their sounds and their song structures, were not a part of my personal musical universe. I've known their music since I was nine years old or something...unique indeed. The Floyd, Yes and Genesis and their legacy of albums from the years 1970-77 (that period in particular) had an immeasurable impact on my understanding of music, and the way I listen to music.
I was a teenager in the 70s and I've been a pink floyd fan all my life but no one ever mentions the fact they had to bring in all of the electronic power in order to do this not to mention they were in Italy recording Dark Side of the Moon
Meddle was released in 1971
@@watcher171 Yes, but the concert film here is from '72
There will never be another band like Pink Floyd. The way their music does something to the soul is like no other music I've heard.
Try Nightwish's tribute to High Hopes. The best set of musicians since floyd. This band and their current lead singer will take you to a whole new world
@@karlfinch8855
I will ...
If right, thank's in avance !
I come after ..
(Sorry for m'y english)
Ok i listened.
Its excellent, powerfull, great vocal, a strong presence ! Great guitars and .. all ! But ...
But ...
Its hard rock, its very good hard rock, its NOT spirit Pink Floyd.
Very good, may be exceptionnal but totaly different of PF.
But also thank's to show that band, i dont knew them 🙏
If you want a fabulus tribute Pink Floyd, try this :
czcams.com/video/uCuhez2l7lY/video.htmlsi=F3sM_p9BpclBrZTi
So pity, they did a unique show, these musiciens are exceptionnals but do other works with other bands, that depend of requests. They are not inauf famous... pity i said because they could ! They should ! The guitarist Thibault de Robillard is great !!! I love his game ! I never hear a guitarist so close to David Gilmour ! Thibault is close !
@@karlfinch8855 Sorry, this version of nightwish is ... uuugh.. not my taste.
After watching live at Pompeii many years ago I still have to wonder why Nick Mason is not mentioned with the likes of Bonham, Peart or Moon. The man is absolutely phenomenal!!!
I had the same reactions when I listened to this 52 years ago. I still have them now
There are countless great bands and musicians. But, Pink Floyd ranks among the very, very best because they were completely unique and believed 100% in what they were doing. This footage is a perfect example of this, and you totally got it. It was a real pleasure watching you be absorbed by the majesty of this epic song.
This is my favorite song by my favorite band. I always feel like I'm on a journey on a ship that gets completely engulfed in fog, we slowly sail in, and the high piano key leads us out again. You hear it a bit more clearly in the studio version, the complete eeriness of the feeling of being lost, and then being led back out to the light.
David Gilmour's guitar is another member of the band, as far as I'm concerned. It's his guitar that speaks to me, makes me cry, tells the story.
So well said brother.
Echoes from Pompeii is one of my favorite pieces of music in existence. That change at 7:53 into that colossal groove will give me goosebumps forever. Love your reaction!
I started learning the Guitar after seeing this back in the my late teens.This performance is amazing .
@@MisterTMH Gilmour always sounds amazing (obviously) but the lead tone he was able to get for this specific live performance is easily the greatest thing I’ve ever heard in my life.
I mean, how does one ever compare a true classic band like Pink Floyd to anything in our modern times! This will be the classical music of the future. Generations will stand in amazement to the pure brilliance of Pink Floyd! Their technical abilities combined with insane vocals, great lyrics, just timeless.
Your reaction is priceless and a joy to watch. Floyd are amazing.
You're right, one of the most engaging reactions I've ever followed.
It brought me back to the feelings of when I listened live, in the tour *_Atom Heart Mother,_* the "work in progress" *_Return of the Son of Nothing_* of this masterpiece. It was three and a half months before they made this incredible movie. An experience that has marked my life ... and "the why" I find it every time on videos of this level.
It is extraordinary how good they sound performing this live.
to me it is one of the most if not THE MOST spiritual song that really changed my life. I've heard it hundreds of times. Your response was amazing, thank you for allowing me to experience the song a little as if all over again.
We have an incredible Pink Floyd tribute band in my city. The last time I saw them, they performed this song from start to finish, and by the end of it, I was in tears. This song will never not be in my top 3 Pink Floyd songs.
It is nice seeing you take this Pink Floyd journey.
Much of the 70s music, influding Pink Floyd's music was part of the Album Oriented Rock (AOR) time. Albums were made to put on the turntable and listen to the entire album in one sitting. Each track of Pink Floyd's music transitions into the next track, you can't tell where one song ends and the next song begins.
This song was the blueprint for all of their later worldwide success. You can hear mixes of many songs yet to be written..shine on being one of them..this was the nucleus
Yep. I think it was either Richard Wright or Nick Mason that said it was the first time they felt as if they really had found their sound since Syd had departed.
You can hear and sense the influence of Echoes in so many of their follow on works…in fact ”Is there anybody out there” and “Marooned” directly sample the wailing guitar section from the middle of Echoes.
@@shawnlucas2753 Echoes was their ‘gate’ 😊🇮🇪
That’s the problem ❤
There is only a segment of population that can understand and love this and nowadays it’s smaller- the fact that you feel this and understand it the way i see you doing in this video means you have a friend you never met in me ❤
I've loved this whole concert since I was a kid, so mystic sounding. Great to see a review where you don't keep stopping the song.
Keep in mind these guys were in their early 20's when they wrote this album.I cannot say anyone in their early 20's today would come up with such great concepts and musicality
Yes, people have lost their deep creative powers! Everything else that came after had its foundations in bands like these and others. It was a time of great inner changes and deeper search, expression into one’s soul.
Mozart. No offense to anyone.
I'd have said that also... then Ren came along. Go listen/watch Ren, Hi Ren... Best thing created since DSOTM.
Tame Impala
Background music actually said something and had actual background music written instead of a beatbox
This was filmed in 1971. 45 years later, in 2016, David Gilmour returned to this same location in Pompeii to perform live in front of a sold-out audience.
1971 they did it for the music and the experience with no one there to witness it, David went back for money there’s a big difference.
@@jcreature11 Either way, he got paid, and deservedly so. I am glad he was paid because he sure earned it.
Thank you for this. (Might I suggest you also do a “react” to “Shine on You Crazy Diamond”) … I didn’t remember that the Pompeii version of Echoes leaves out the beautiful atmospheric section that is on the Meddle album version. Still an extraordinary performance though. Yes, one can see the kind of “rawness” in the performance that led to “Dark Side of the Moon” … “Meddle” is a wonderful album … a great overture to DSOTM. Your reaction is the much like mine … I can remember the place and the time I first heard “Echoes” … I heard a yearning, a longing to be “out there” … shedding one’s “mortal coil” … let’s face it, its a trip! However, it is a trip with heart. Anyhow, this is, of course, my experience and it hasn’t faded away no matter how many times I hear “Echoes”.
@@benegeserit1 The version on Pompeii is complete, but cut in 2 sections.
@@jcreature11 Ever hear that expression 'Turd in the punchbowl'? That's you, right there in the punchbowl.....
Goosebumps EVERY TIME I hear this song. Love it!
Nick Mason is one of the most underrated drummers in rock history. Alongside Ian Paice (Deep Purple).
These are my two "go to" drummers, if someone says xyz drummer is good, I reply they are hardly Ian Paice or Nick Mason.
@@barriedear5990John Henry Bonham
Ian Paice is still extant, doing everybody's album when you require a drummer that can get hard as you need him to be; or more melodious and blending into a rhythm section following the bass player's line to begin fleshing it out fully-very jazzlike and startling.
At their best. The Pompeii concert is peak Floyd. Play more from this film
Everyone has felt the same with PF's music at some point. It feels personal and otherwordly at the same time, hard to explain
I think its fair to say her mind was blown……the Floyd are the goat
Yes girl, this 61 ur old was 9 when it came out. 1977 my husband of 45 yrs played this for me. So we have had the pleasure of listening 1000's of times. Never loses it's magic.Think of the fact they did this 52 years ago. What they accomplished with what they had. Could not even be created today with all the gadgets. Masters at work. I love you really got it.... Welcome to the world of Floyd!
Please check out the original Great gig in the sky album version as we only heard it. No worries the stage presence will blow your mind without seeing it.
Cheers
And that is how you do something, not overly complicated, but make it touch your very soul!
Watching you react to this makes me think you are 50 years out of time. I suspect you can almost imagine being surrounded by new music like this every day. It was very nice.
It surely was, we will never see that level of creativity ever again albums from artists like Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, King Crimson, Yes, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Mike Oldfield, David Bowie, Simon and Garfunkel, Jethro Tull, Credence Clearwater Revival, The Byrds, Free, The Eagles, The Band, Traffic, America, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Genisis, Gentle Giant, Camel, Stevie Wonder, Carol King, James Taylor, Lynyrd Skynyd, T.Rex, to name only a few there were many more and a new album by one of these was a real treat, you would either play your new purchase for your friend's or you'd be listening to their new purchases, such a great time when we actually owned music instead of renting it like Spotify et al.
Indeed, we we’re immeasurably blessed.
I'm 55, and have been crying with this for 22 years.
I understand, and will gladly cry with you.
I'm also a guitarist.
My whole concept of music changed the first time my band mates played the album Meddle .. .this track came on and it gave me goosebumps. Saw the DSOTM tour in October ‘72. Blew my mind. They played the album front to back and closed with Echoes. When the fog cleared the band was gone. .we never saw them leave the stage. Eight thousand people left the venue without saying a word. .no joke. .they were just stunned beyond words. Years later i ran into a guy who was at that show and we compared notes and he said the same thing. .. no one spoke…. Never forget that gig. Ranks right up there with seeing Beatles on their second to last American performance Portland Memorial Coliseum
You surprise me! I never dreamed that you would review this or be so positive. 👍🏻 Pink Floyd was multifaceted, to put it mildly. Their vocals are underrated. I think the last time I heard Echoes was in 1981. I don’t remember it having so much groove. Thanks for the reaction/review and the wonderful trip down memory lane.
I am thrilled that a new generation "gets" this music!
The first time I heard this Pink Floyd track, I was fascinated by their extraordinary music.
More than 50 years later, it still fascinates me as much as the first day. For me, it has become a classic.
Pink Floyd had a way of tapping into the soul of the audience. I will never tire of listening to their music.
You can feel the 16,000 souls sitting in the amphitheater great reaction rock on
I cried like a baby....again.😅so good...
I could watch you listen to Pink Floyd for hours, you positively glow.
The most atmospheric rock band I have ever heard!
Pink Floyd will take you through a journey with every song. my all time fav band
We all felt the same way as you when we first heard Echoes in the early 1970's, and through its genius it has brilliantly stood the test of time!
David always has impeccable tone, plays the exact "right" notes, and squeezes every drop of emotion out of each note. A song so good Andrew Lloyd Webber stole it and made a whole career from it.
Let the tears flow! This gets me every time. There are many songs that make me cry through pure joy and happiness. This is one of them. Do not hold the tears back. There are many people in the world at the moment who are doing terrible things to all our brothers and sisters. They should be forced to listen!!!!
Maythesunglissuwell x ✊🌌
You came up on my CZcams from this reaction video. Pompeii is a real treat... the whole thing. But Echoes is the crown jewels. So glad you found it. I'll be watching the channel as long as you keep digging up these spectacular songs like you have recently.
Great reaction! We could see you being moved every step of the way. The band members weren't trying to outdo anyone else as if to say "hey, look at me only". Each member adds just enough to give the song what it needs to bring you along to new places emotionally. True artistry. This is Art in musical form.
"band members werent trying to outdo anyone else"
Meanwhile david just casually in the corner absolutely finger fucking that guitar.
Greatest Band Ever.
You nailed it right in the bull's eye with your comments !!!
That's why they re the BEST musicians ever !!! truly outta this world !
... When the landing on the moon was being transmitted , obviously without sound , they thought we should add some music for the viewers , and only one fitted ! yes , Pink Floyd ! ... that's why you'll read in many posters and so = first in space !!!
I can just imagine four guys jamming away in a garage, then ending up with this masterpiece
Its awesome to see a new generation explore classics like this. You looked like you thoroughly enjoyed it. Keep exploring!
Bass guitar is so critical in this song and he wrote the lyrics also.
Richard wrote the lyrics. Waters didn't have much to do with it.
@@swinetrek Probably right but not according to Google or Wikipedia 😒
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echoes_(Pink_Floyd_song)#:~:text=The%20music%2C%20credited%20to%20all,returned%20to%20in%20later%20work.
One of the most iconic rock performances off all time
I’ve been listening to Pink Floyd for over 50 years it never gets old
I'm on the Pink Floyd Journey for 47 years.. I'm blessed to see them tWice live and David Gilmore and Roger waters also separately twice.. 😍😍 this music got a connection straight into the soul..
So many people when they here the name Pink Floyd run a mile, but they don’t know what they are missing. Try Shine on you Crazy Diamond Parts 1 thru 5 and 6 thru 9. It’s another masterpiece.
You are right "Shine on..." in all Parts from the "Wish you were here" Album are a great Choise....
Rick's piano coda in 9 is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard.
I think it’s The Wall that scares people away from Floyd. That album and film (though I personally believe it’s a masterpiece) was basically Roger Watter’s psychotic vision of himself come to life and scared people stupid. His screechy, high pitched voice from that album and the much less impressive The Final Cut is what comes to mind for most people when they hear the name.
@@chandlerwhite8302 I think you couldn’t be more wrong.
In January 2000, I went to Pompeii for the first time. I had a portable CD player and the Pink Floyd Echoes CD with me. I went onto to the stands of this amphitheater (it was allowed then!) and listened to Echoes remembering the countless times I watched this videos in VHS. It was a wonderful moment I will cherish forever!
‘Wow’ is an appropriate comment after hearing that 20 mins of absolute perfection.
Oh my Lord, an exceptionally amazing review. The expressions on your face was how I felt inside on playing this utterly brilliant track. Thanks so much!!!
That was just a little over half the song. There is a part 2. When the band made this video/concert, they opened with the first part of Echoes and closed the concert/video with the second part. On the album, it's all one song that is just over 23 minutes.
I've been a huge fan of Pink Floyd for over 40 years. Echoes is on the Meddle album, which was the very first album I ever owned and it is my all-time favorite piece of Rock music. I am thrilled to see how mesmerized you are at Echoes and how you translate your feelings live. It is refreshing to see a young woman be moved so profoundly by a masterpiece such as this one. Good on you for sharing this with the world. A testament to the immortality of Pink Floyd's work. Keep up the good work!
It's good to see you were as dumbfounded as we were, listening to that, going on that, journey, way back in the 70s... How many times I've listened to it, and thought, no one, no other song captures, that epic, historic, journey of man!!!!!!!! "The echo of a distant time..." and "no one flies around the sun..." -Gives me goosebumps!!!
Primordial is what I call that. Great reaction... watching it hit you was very fun.
Fantastic reaction!!! Please do the Echoes version live in Gdansk. It's mind blowing and it was the last time Dave and Rick played it together, just before Rick passed away... 😢 An absolute masterpiece!!
'Echoes' a great piece of music that David Gilmour only played live with Richard Wright as he felt his vocals could never be substituted by anyone else.
For all the legendary bands, Pink Floyd is at the top!
This was from the movie "Pink Floyd - Live in Pompeii" by the French film director Adrian Maben which was on general cinematic release in 1972. They managed to get permission from the mayor of Naples, who was a big Floyd fan, that they would close the ancient site to tourists for 6 days to allow for the shoot. This being Italy of course, they had power cuts for the first couple of days so as a result didn't get the full footage that Maben had expected. This was the reason for the studio clips interspersed with the Pompeii footage in Part 2 which were recorded in a Paris studio at a later date. It was Maben's idea to split into Parts 1 and 2, which bookend the movie, normally the piece would be played in one continuous performance. Glad to see you once again so enjoying this music, can you imagine the effect it had on us in the 1970's, there was truly nothing comparable at the time, still isn't really.
What does Italy have to do with it, as if we are always plunged into darkness because of electricity blackouts. Pompeii is an archaeological site, not an industrial centre, it is clear that the electricity supply was not sufficient and they had to upgrade the lines for the increased use of power by amplifiers and loudspeakers. You paint Italy as a backward country, at the time we even had nuclear power stations. The usual foreign arrogance, you build Ferraris, Maseratis, Lamborghinis, De Tommaso, Ducati, Aprilia, Pagani, Lancia Delta 4W, but you will be remembered for building the little Fiat 500
1. The Pompei site is not in Naples, is in Pompei. So at least they managed to get permission from the mayor of Pompei, not Naples
2. The mayor of Pompei count zero (and the mayor of Naples less than zero), they asked the permission to the Superintendence of archeology and fine arts of Naples (that is the local institution of the ministry of culture) through a professor of the University of Naples. They were granted exclusive entry to the site for 6 days, resulting in the site being closed to visitors.
3. They didn't have power cuts, simply the electrical system of a Roman amphitheater in which the last show helded was dated 79AD is not the electical system of a modern stadium, it did not have enough power to run all the instruments of the band and all the equipment of the troupe, so they had to connect the system to the town hall with a long cable. Furthermore the band demanded to play everything live, refusing playback, so they had to ship all their giant equipment -including a 24 tracks recording system - by truck from England to Pompeii (this took 3 days). Usually the production of a film makes sure to have electricity in the places where they shoot, before arriving there. But since they didn't even have the money to pay for the hotel, maybe they didn't have any for electric generators. For these reasons they were only able to shoot for 4 days out of the 6 they had available.
Where I come from they say "you can't have the chicken, the egg and keep your ass warm"
Truly one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever put to paper.... I NEVER get tired of hearing it. They don't make music like this anymore. Pink Floyd means so much to so many people all over the world. That's not an easy achievement. God bless....
You are by far my favorite reactionist (is that a word?) by a large margin. I absolutely love that you allow the music to continue uninterrupted so you can get the full experience
You summed it up. Pink Floyd is an experience. They pick you up at the beggining and don't let you go. Been listening to this for 53 years and it never ages!
It's just amazing how Pink Floyd music perfectly merges in one of the most ancient and mystical place on earth ! 🙏🏻
They captured a moment and turned it into a timeless artifact
Watching this concert feels like traveling through the universe in a time machine - the ultimate fantasy experience. And the reviewer being as beautiful as a Renaissance portrait makes this experience becomes truly exquisite
Love the video!!! This is awesome, Pink Floyd rocks! Thank You💯
