david gilmour - echoes - the acoustic version

[jonquette1]

j’adore

[StrawberryJungle]

Guy Pratt is very excited, bless him! Rightly so too, an acoustic version of Echoes with Dave Gilmour and Rick Wright themselves. I'd be jumping up and down too!

[conecik]

RIP Rick Wright

[LoganW23]

[TheMetalFloyd666]

[RikBonStudio21]

Can't find words to describe what I just heard... it's beautiful.

Who the f*ck would hit the dislike button to this?

[herralfredo]

When the video endend I stood like... frozen... This is magical

[herralfredo]

Woah... just... woah

[manthega2]

Faça a caridade de me doar este seu violão Lindo, com este captador especial, David Gilmour, rsrs...Very Cool My Friend

[Sissiaraujo]

@manthega2 Mesmo sem equipamento sofisticado você dá show de talento!! adoro ouvir você interpretar as lindas canções que tanto ama e quero ouvir pra sempre! beijos, Sissi.

[blackadder3]

I just stumbled upon this, awesome!!!! Thanks for the upload!!

[IsisTiamat]

In the great cathedral of music composed by Pink Floyd, Echoes is the cupola, the heart and centre of this magnificent creation.

[bcdalessio]

Just AMAZING

[kthulu]

when goofing off turns into something sublime. classic.

[larryoduncan]

Very cool version.... Very Cool indeed.

[TheLordRiddler]

Where is this on the Blu-Ray? I cannot find it.

[crazylarry27]

@TheLordRiddler it is on the on an island dvd

[johan99912]

Super great

[MrTypri]

This music is my youth, my life!

[blackrider885]

la mejor cancion de todos los tiempos...

[janmadytay]

4 dislikes? they surely listen to lady gaga.....

[missbetzy76]

@janmadytay LOL!!!! for sure!

[MrWilander88]

i love the guitar solo in this version of echoes...............amazinggg­gggg

[roberthodd]

David Gilmour miał i ma silny głos

[Antoinegaudet14]

The start was kinda strange but err... he's the best anyways !

[Pinkfloydian17]

@Antoinegaudet14 This is what you call a jam session. There's always a rough start but then it starts to take shape.

[Diederikdeceuster]

gilmour should fire the bassplayer for acting like a complete idiot while performing one of the most beautiful songs ever written.



[seantheguitarman11]

@Diederikdeceuster yeah thats guy pratt, i dont know if he still is but at one point rick wright was his father in law

[ZombieFish17]

omg i love how they break into that song gives me chills!

[3lullabies]

that bass player messed up like 5 times in a row. david was good about it, at least hes not some bitchy rock guy.

[wannacadeadbody]

slick rick jammin. every vid u ever see of floyd, production leaves him out. ive seen waters 3 times, would still rather see gilmore n wright. even barrets dead. only albums now

[brianz1214]

@wannacadeadbody I hate to tell you this but one of the best keyboard players of all time is dead to may he rest in peace

[iannaprog]

ho i brividi

[oldoctopus]

good rick, we lost a good man.

[Petns13]

You can still see the same spark in his eyes as he starts soloing, as if it were only him, Nick, Rick and Roger, somewhere, Pompeii style.

[CHUJWAMWRYJA]

genial.

[HolyCraq123456789]

does anyone know the tabs to that beginning acoustic lick???!!!

[oldoctopus]

I play so: d-/c/b bemoll/a

[wannacadeadbody]

good ol rick getting down in the background. R.I.P

[afkmusic]

Anyone have the tab for the little guitar lick Gilmour does here? I cant find it anywhere.

[riajix185]

Anyone know where I would be able to find the tabs for that?

[Foodylox]

Nearly crying here. This band were so amazing. They didn't belong on this planet.

[spkelly100]

Brilliant!!

[BluesRockRo]

r.i.p rick wright

[IsisTiamat]

Why do I keep hearing parts of "Phantom of the Opera" in parts of Echoes? Did Andrew Lloyd Webber filch it?

[meaksam]

Anyone else think Dave's singing is flat? I think he's a bit out of tune!

[capnhuh]

no, your the one whos flat and out of tune..

[mistercupcake1]

The bassist is making an complete fool of himself.

[mistercupcake1]

Come on people.

He may be a good bassist in life...but in the intro, he is totally out...and sounds bad.

[BluesRockRo]

@mistercupcake1 improvisation is key in being a good player i'm sure he's heard the song but probably has never really attempted to play it, i doubt someone like david gilmour would play with someone who is incompetent.

[neyoam]

Im still having shivers when im listening this song...this music is so much more than just a music. It's a spiritual experience.

[mezavalo]

@neyoam Best comment I've ever heard to define this song, "spiritual experience" :-)

[JamesShore1990]

Guy Pratt has become old, man! Still a great player!

[rythmhawk]

.......EPIC AND UNIQUE

[stevenzanemusic]

RIP Rick!

[skateparkslayer]

"echoes the acoustic version" than they just break into it perfectly.. wow

[Starlitblond]

oh my god.. this sounds so close to the original one.. nice going guys..

[Starlitblond]

I grew up listening to this whole album.. then the CD... but always loved the crap out of it.. .It took me away many nights.. looking out at a tide going out... some of the fog.. the beach.. nice.. It obvioulsy has a great place in my heart..

[Anaben11]

what are the lyrics at 5:02 ?

[stevenzanemusic]

Awesome!

[TesoDude]

It's Incredible how the band is looking history of music in front of their own eyes with Gilmour and Wright

[kamuxmr]

Echos, la cancion que me volvio adicto a Floyd.

[HushhhPaw]

Jeez, they are having such a ball. And, David, I must say you are looking very handsome on this one.

[jonathonpvaldez17]

Magic! Thats all I have to say...

[FenderMeddle94]

Holy crap, i tell you, this was the best i've heard of a long time. Pink Floyd is the best, that's just it. And this one is one of their best songs. Latley, i don't think they have been able to get the magic from the early-mid 70's, but here he really caught it. Lonmg live David gilmour, the best guitarrist ever!!!

(hopfully you'll see me doing a thing like this in like 40 years... I'm 15 now, and I will try to get this kind of sound back to the world :D)

[Brrrrr43]

Please keep that promise ! At 15 you have a good shot at it !! Don't give up, We need this again. :)

[albferraz]

Your memory is right, Echoes lyrics were made by Gilmour, Wright, Mason and Waters...

[carneyfex]

Actually, no, the lyrics are solely by Waters. Pink Floyd only credited who wrote the music (in the order of involvement), and Echoes was an effort of the whole band, but mainly Gilmour and Wright. I hope this clarifies things.

Anyway, Echoes is a great work of the whole band, you'd struggle to find a song where Waters' lyrics and Gimour's/Wright's music blend as good as here.

[thresholdproductions]

3:37 *megasquirt*

[Brrrrr43]

Fellas, please don't argue. If memory serves me right, all 4 men had a hand in the lyrics of this particular song. And I believe DG and Richard did most of the music.

[felipemaluf]

yes buddy its Guy

[jsiminski]

Is that Guy Pratt on Double Bass?

[EmilioGhloum31]

Hey guys, do you know what type of guitar he's playing? I know it's a gibson, but the model... Also, does anybody by any chance know the tabs to what else playing at the begining, the solo? Thank you for your time

[Crapgame123]

Hi! The guitar is a Gibson Western 1959 acoustic steel string guitar...fitted with a L.R. Baggs M1 active pickup =)

[88then89]

haha I like the way they end the song

[darthdude1016]

still sounds likes an angel. much love mr gilmour

[simgorm]

Stunning because it is spontaneous!!!!!

[rockaires]

Lyrics by Roger Waters.

[simgorm]

Oh please just fuck off with the Waters Shit, Gilmour and Wright produced the music and did the singing, please take a long run off a short fucking pier.

[rockaires]

Get an education man. Only said Waters wrote the lyrics. Is it difficult to understant?

[simgorm]

No its not difficult to understand, you are being a pissy prat on a video that is about Gilmour not Waters, as for education please learn how to spell English d not t in understand.

[rockaires]

I´m not english and I am sure that I speak better your language than you speak mine. Anyway I do not like animosity and I reafirm what I said, Waters wrote the lyrics of this masterpiece and Pink Floyd compose the music as a whole.

Peace.

[markoVTX]

Get off your high fucking horse sunshine.

[simgorm]

Fuck you pukeface, shove your sunshine up your arse along with the fucking horse.

[markoVTX]

Oh dear, got some anger issues going on there son...then again i would get pissed off being a barman for a living lol...lol! ...(get us a pint of Strongbow there's a good chap)...and despite all this jolly banter we can at least agree that the Floyd are the dog's gonad's cant we lol...

[simgorm]

LOL I get a very good salary, way above national average, bonus, private health care, pension, expenses and a 3 bedroom flat for my troubles as a barman and if in my opinion you've had enough I can refuse to serve you, no Strongbow for you and yes Floyd were the DB's sadly never again without Wright.

[markoVTX]

Could'nt believe it when it was announced that Richard Wright had died... We will never know if there was any chance of a Floyd reunion although i doubt it would have come off.

At least we got to see them one last time in Hyde park and a back catalogue of music that is timeless...right, i'm off for a pint ,-)

[ChileDDR]

He's God

[jnomoura]

I´ve been listening Echoes for the last 35 years, since I was a boy. And it seems to be new each time I listen again. It´s a music for the eternity.

[juvenileflyer]

Because Echoes keep going on, and on.

[lakefloor]

@jnomoura I can definately say that I ECHO your sentiments. I've been listening to it that long myself. It carries an eternal flame. You don't just listen, you experience it. Brings the emotions right to the surface. It doesn't get any better than this.

[ThePalm33]

it melts my heart,lucky those who had the chance to work with PINK FLOYD ,its sad very sad that they r leaving us one after one,all the love and respect to pink floyd i truly loved u guys u r indeed a legend(no one flies around the sun)

[caifan8894]

lucky musicians, XD

[psytaxeek]

BRAVO!!!!

[piterfloyd]

Echoes its the best song in the world , have emotion, soul , this song have all . Its just amazing !

Pink Floyd its the best band ever and Gilmour you are a god !

[jpzatarain]

@piterfloyd completamente de acuerdo.

[lucaslmgv]

@piterfloyd

Pink Floyd: Best Band

Echoes: Best Song

[honeybear277]

I fell in love with this piece more than 30 years ago and still it is my favourite piece of music ever. The subtlety, layering, emotion, range and the way it takes you on a journey. It is a masterpiece.

[8628416]

OMG!!! I love that solos

[marguitar2008]

god

[PoposNewGuitarChan]

David Gilmour = the man

[judomaster9090]

to me this is simply the best track i ever heard and i am positive that nothing is gonna change my mind

[janismacher]

i love when david says in his sexy british accent : "eckoes the ackoustik version"

[zeppelinstrat]

dude spell it right, it's right above you in the video title

[janismacher]

i know how to spell it, i was trying to show that sexy accent of the old man in case you didn't realize... no coments,,, not so clever man:S

[zeppelinstrat]

pretty sure spelling it with ck's instead of ch's or just a c doesn't change the pronunciation, so it doesn't sound british, it's just mispelled. but it's cool at least you actually know how to spell it.

[janismacher]

oh an that's what the " ", means !!!

[janismacher]

i love it, i love them, i love you! Gilmour and Wright as usual so fuckin genius, great... And i agree, he (DG) still has that twinkle in his eyes, the man is bless..

[Maaaacs]

When I listen to this song and when I see Richard Wright & David Gilmour I almost cry, thinking about all these years they were friends and all the music they made, Echoes is incredible.

[EnragedSlash]

... the same happens to me, mate! I still can't exlain to myself why :)

[Shaftlidge]

Man these guys were fucking beasts

[fenderstratguy]

There's Richard Wright in the back there..........RIP always amigo

[marcogalway]

I love you!!!

[dustasdu]

Hahaha Great video! Thanks for posting this!

[bigals1000]

i love it

[Demaab]

Dave still has that twinkle in his eyes whenever he picks up a guitar you know you're going to hear something special.

[vauxhall908]

love this version.....think phatom of opera

[dustasdu]

The riff is almost the same... The same scale! But yeah haha me too!

[ZatzEnouf]

"/A million bright ambassador of morning"

simply genius!!

[HELLO2YOU3]

There are two close friends

[raulishoogallagher]

master piece

[lordloire]

they're just screwing around in the studio and still they make this song sound so great

[betojon]

acoustic... it's just a joke, don't ya see, buy the DVD it's awesome

[Smoothbassistthatsme]

why does that bass sound nasty?

[lawlshane]

it's not acoustic

[Smoothbassistthatsme]

but still thats just gross

[aidanofbuses]

do you know what heavy distortion is

[Smoothbassistthatsme]

why would he need distortion on echoes?

[kringer45]

that is how it's done on the original

[doradoradoradora999]

i like it this way, too. adds some of the original feeling.

[Smoothbassistthatsme]

but this is acoustic, there should be no distortion. acoustic is synonymous w/ clean when it comes to music

[kringer45]

don't forget that in this video it was quite random of david gilmour to start playing his bridge to echoes and that alone caught people off guard at the time so he didn't bother to think about the acoustic and just started playing echoes the way he new it

[teeme73]

Echoes is the birth of the Floyd sound that most love. I absolutely love this song.

[lisalisa842]

was it me or did that seem impromptu, like gilmour was coaxing them to begin playing with him. a real lead.

[hanssemann]

Where is this from? Is it out on DVD?

[esdenaze]

3:35 how haunting

[roach070875]

can u buy this on dvd

[hillybillyvoodoo]

remember that night! VERY VERY GOOD!!!

[roach070875]

can u buy this on dvd

[DankerHerb]

u guys need to smoke some weed, listen to dave play and relax

[ukkfayooyay]

Wow, what kind of thread have I walked into here? I just wanted to say that it is shocking for me to see Dave Gilmour as a senior citizen, after being a PF fan for 40 years and remembering him with long hair.

[Brrrrr43]

I feel like that too, but even as a senior he still has it ! But I aged too lol. I hope he still performs because 60's is not old for today's standards. I saw Moody Blues last night and they aged too, but still good.

[aidanofbuses]

i saw neil young he played a five hour set and hes 65

[RDL1984]

In this video it doesn't looks that Gilmour and Rick aged 60's...

[cloudchaser07]

SenorSpode (4 hours ago) Oh BTW....David Gilmour rules.

You still suck the green cheese from between a dead Muslim gal's legs

CloudChaser: Now every one sees that you are a racist motherfucker, any one who loves pink floyed is a peacful person who loves all humans no matter thier relegion and color. you have proved to be unworthy of my time or any one in here to read yoru stupid idiot comments seriously you have a mental problem You are a sick Fuck if you can speak about dead girls like that

[cloudchaser07]

Senor Fuck Head you R the most pathetic idiot i ever met, loooool you shouldn't listen to pink floyed you should get a fucking barrel and drum it tell you fall deaf. are you trying to play the sympathy card that you been playing for thousands of years? wahahaha. im not surprised by your illustrious comment describing a dead Muslim girl's pussy. how fucking civilized you are! My profile exposes the unhuman treatment living humans you fucking murderer. you enjoy seeing people die dont you asshole

[zeravla65]

AWESOME!!! Dave rocks! RIP Rick... Pink Floyd will always be the best of the bests!!! They are legends!!!! tnx 4 posting!

[cranderson70]

FAK!!! just came across this on the dvd about a month ago!!!

[alwayswithmyfaith]

the bassist is the same of pulse dvd???

[antonio1271]

yes, his name is guy Pratt

[zxcvmjg]

Speechless. Thank you for the post.

[sergenietos]

Legends!

[sebeatworld]

music at its best.

[Brrrrr43]

It's nice to see them practicing and having some fun. Good Post. I have the DVD but this isn't on it. David is amusing himself, and still great guitar work. 5*****

[cranderson70]

you have to go straight to "Dark Globe" and it should just go into it afterwards.

[neilsft]

effortless !!! hence the greatness

[sujalshr]

thats rebirth of echoes right there... awesome...

[GeezaGooderz]

wow this is amazing! I can't believe the next few years could be the last time we really ever hear gillmour perform whats left of Floyd's music, appreciate these moments guys..

[trebenaid]

I am with you...and what's really disheartening is I just don't see this kind of talent in anyone up and coming....hopefully I am mistaken

[eromatico]

Fantastico! Riposa in pace Richard.. nei tuoi echi..

[cloudchaser07]

Echos one and two is my all time favorite pieces, fucking rocking . check rick out man. rest in peace rick is making music for the heavenly angels now. for fucking sure

[Progressive90]

rest in piece Rick...

[Comfortab1yNumB]

They were goofing around and they came up with this kind of creation.. It just proves again and again how briliant the 5 guys are who rocked our souls for more than 3 decades..

[315hb]

That's awesome...they were goofing around, and they came up with this. The vocals don't get any better than that. It would be cool if there was also a complete acoustic version.

[cduff624]

haha both david and guy pratt are amazing

[geniuspopuli]

anyway DAVID plays his guitars ,is a work of art ,I would call him the LEONARDO DA VINCI OF THE MUSIC WORLD

[stratplayor]

imo the best song of all time, especially the Pompei version. This is great too.
