*music (David Gilmouresque instrumental bits)

edit - holycrap it was David Gilmours guitar work...DOUBLE SWEET!

That Gilmour 2OT winner still give me the shivers.

Great post. It's great to see Waters and Gilmour on the same stage. Hopefully they'll release an album; the first all together since The Final Cut!

Gotta have tapes for the boom-box!

What a coincidence! I had this on tape too. At that time I bought virtually everything on vinyl, but every now and then I bought cassettes. This was one of the few.

Thanks.

I wonder what Mr. David Gilmour would do with this baby.

I need to spend more time in Unsifted, it would have been a shame to have missed this as it is very good! I bet David Gilmour and Joe Sat would be proud to hear how they have influenced this young talent.

wow...
very "grunge-adelic".
This must be right before they decided not to play with Syd any longer.

Actually it would have been right after Syd split. That's David Gilmour singing and playing the guitar.

What's with the host chill'n on stage with them?
Does he think that snapping makes him part of the band?

I got a kick out of that too.

I think this is from the Dark Side of the Moon documentary. Fairly interesting but parts of it make me very sad. They have seques from original recorded material, to, say, David Gilmour playing guitar today. He's lost his touch somewhat, I think. One of my favorite guitarists. I am not skilled at playing fast, and for the most part he doesn't rely on that either, so I have tried to take a lot of cues from his sense of phrasing and style.

I have a real soft spot for Roy. There are lots of great 'technical' guitar players (Malmstein, vai, satriani). There are also a fair share of great 'musical' guitar players (Hendrix, Gilmour, Clapton). But Roy was the rarest combination of both. A one of a kind that didn't and doesn't get his due.

Sofa,
What indeed is wrong with these people. I guess I'm getting too old and jaded. I long for bygone days of real musicians playing real songs with real instruments. Anyone can set a loop to play over and over and monotone some poetry over it. On the other hand, very few can make smoke rise from the frets of a Tele as it screams the blues of a lonely and neglected heart. Am I waxing too poetic here? I think I'm off the deep end in despair over this.

Seriously? Jimi has no soul? are you retarded?

I think Bill Hicks said it best

This is Dave Gilmour and his backup band featuring Nick Mason and Richard Wright....it's NOT The Pink Floyd.

Sorry, if Roger isn't there, it ain't real in my opinion. Your opinions may vary of course....
