Arguably one of the best performances of one of the best guitar solos ever. Pink Floyd, cerebral poets of rock, put on a live performance of this classic track from their Album, Dark Side of the Moon. It took place at Earl’s Court, London as part of the 1994 Division Bell tour.
The singing, lyrics, audio and harmony are all laid before us with a stupendous light show. This performance had it all and literally takes you on a trip! Surely David Gilmour must rank as one of the top 5 exponents of the electric guitar in a very crowded field.
Not only that, the vocal skill with which he bridges across the ascending stages of this epic are perfect for the haunting lyrics and mood of the piece.
I intend to revisit all the tracks from the album in future posts. Meanwhile, just sit back and let this one sink in!
