This has to be possibly the best live album I've ever heard, surpassing their other live album imo. I bought this cd twice (lost it once years ago in a car crash and then bought another which got totally scratched.)

Listening to Comfortably Numb, Wish You Were Here, Run Like Hell, Learning to Fly = :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Re: Pink Floyd

same here...love that cd and had to buy them twice as well (once just to replace my worn out cassettes). Floyd are just so damn talented and that is really so hard to show live, but they never fail to impress. I've got many other live concerts of theirs if you're interested.

Re: Pink Floyd

I am very much so interested!

Re: Pink Floyd

ROOOOOOOBBY..... PLEASE can you help a brotha out with a digital RIP of LIVE IN POMPEII..... :shock: :shock: I would KILLLL for that shite

-e-

Re: Pink Floyd

same....i'd like that live from pompeii as well,,,,and any video footage....i had this one clip of them playing comfortably numb and was drooling for more.

Re: Pink Floyd

Can I rape you of them too Rubes please?

The best I`ve got to seeing them live was last year when I saw a tribute band of theirs.

THEE best band in the world eva :RockOn:

Re: Pink Floyd

I'll be more than happy to hook you all up over the weekend, though unfortunately I don't have pompeii, but I have a few of their concerts from the 70s and one early 90s one. I'll have to check which ones.

Re: Pink Floyd

OK, so, I've never really heard any Pink Floyd.... What makes them so great, and why would I want to listen to them?

Re: Pink Floyd

what the pioneers of progressive are to us, pink floyd is to rock....lets just say Tool is the new age pink floyd, but no one could ever come close to replicating the music floyd constructed. they are like the john digweeds of their time.

Re: Pink Floyd

great great music.

Re: Pink Floyd

if you listen to ANYTHING from them, listen to "Dark Side of the Moon"..1973/1974 and STILL going stong all these years later... 8)

They were oh so close to reuniting last year...I pray for music's sake they do for one last tour...complete sellouts everywhere if they do.

just go smoke some hippie lettuce and get live in pompeii and watch it on your surround sound with the lights off and the volume turned up so high that every pink floyd lover in your neighbourhood will be pounding down your door for a piece of the action....

then at the end of it, tell me what you think

:lol: I have wathced that video probably more times than any other piece of film around......Total classic Floyd....this is were it all started for me back in junior high!!!

Re: Pink Floyd

best musical band ever. above any kind of music i have ever heard. electronic music can even only take you so far, but pink floyd is a whole level higher. i just listened to meddle and momentary lapse of reason cds yesterday and after having them for probably 10 years i STILL get chills when i listen to them.

Re: Pink Floyd

I have Pompeii on DVD which I'm sure I could make a rip of, under 1 condition: Somebody has to hook me up with a copy of Delicate Sound of Thunder.

Every time I go back and listen to Floyd it puts my current appreciation for Prog into context what with all the synths those guys were using back in the day. Even though their music has a "period" sound, it will still be ahead of its time 50 years from now. Genius!!!

Re: Pink Floyd

[quote=Kobe]I have Pompeii on DVD[/quote]

:shock: :shock: :digweed:

dude u HAVE to hook a brother up

-e-

Re: Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd hands down the greatest band ever. I really like meddle and the wall. As for live show I have a couple of shows. But I usually listen to there studio stuff more.

Re: Pink Floyd

Pulse. Pulse Pulse

coolest concert ever, tops pompei (only cause the tracks and lights)

wonderful music.

Re: Pink Floyd

man i am a huge floyd fan

i got all the albums on VINYL

and i got some bootleg live shows from the early 70's

Re: Pink Floyd

Pink Floyd is true pioneer of Progressive, if you compare some ( for example ) new Pole Folder sets or James Zabiela Essential Mix, similarity is obvious. All that hype about Zero Gold is IMO result of this sentence : Drawing on inspiration from artists like Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Massive Attack and Talk Talk Pole Folder..... Delicate Sound of Thunder is my No 1 Pink Floyd album, and Comfortably Numb ( Delicate Sound of Thunder version ) is my No 1 song of all time.

Re: Pink Floyd

man that delay effect they add toward the end of that solo on CN is intense.

Re: Pink Floyd

Animals and Meddle are two of my all time favorites.....

For you all who havent seeen LIVE @ POMPEII...watch it...

it is a great great video...totaly tripped out, there were the tru pioneers....

R waters even messes around with some ELECTRONIC sounds on there....and this is 1972!!!

Re: Pink Floyd

i saw floyd live at da stadium here prob 10yrs ago it was dope :Hijack:

Re: Pink Floyd

I wish I had seen them live :|

Re: Pink Floyd

Yeah, I saw them on that Divison Bell tour.

Fucking amazing...I?ll never forget when they got to that final solo on Confortably Numb, all the lights in the stadium went down, and from a huge tent in the middle of the field, out came a gigantic mirror ball...the whole stadium was dark, lit only by the reflections from the mirror ball...

It was like an enormous disco...but the sound was that MONSTROUS solo from Confortably Numb.

Pink Floyd are single-handedly responsible for my love of music. I own all their records on vinyl, and there was a point when people thought I was weird because I only bought Pink Floyd records, VHS tapes...whatever, and listened only to Pink Floyd.

I can?t believe most people don?t put them on the same pedestal as the Beatles or the Stones.

unless they had a similar ending (dont remember the track), this sounds like the end to Live in Pompeii too

Re: Pink Floyd

^^^

Really? That video is probably the only major Floyd release that I?ve never seen. But I think it?s from the beginning of the70?s, right? CN only appeared on The Wall, in 79, so maybe they just rehashed that idea.

Re: Pink Floyd

kinetic, the video you speak of with the extended comfortably numb solo and then the "run like hell"" intro is Pulse, live from King Earles Court. Amzing video,

Re: Pink Floyd

^^^^

Slight language problem on my part here, I think.

I meant to say I saw that Pulse tour live here in Lisbon (for the Division Bell album), so it?s the same as that Earl?s Court sequence, but I never saw the Live In Pompeii video, which is pretty old, I think.

Re: Pink Floyd

you guys should check out Nick Masons new book, inside out. amazing read

Re: Pink Floyd

If anyone still wants the live in pompeii concert. I found my copy of it. Its the same concert as the dvd. The sound qualtity is excellent and i can rip it to 192 kbps for anyone then yousendit to you. PM if anyone is interested.

Re: Pink Floyd

For you big time Floyd Fans I would like to recommend a book called

" A Saucerfull of Secrets" - It is an excellent biography about this very quiet secretive band.....pretty much goes through there history and is very very interseting...especially the SYD barret story

one more thing, I listened to piper at the gates of dawn...what a f*ckin brilliant peice of work...talk about progressive - that is it in its rawest form
