You'd nearly think by looking at the layout of the band on stage it was meant to be that waters left the band, ie the dude on rythmn guitar, positioned as Tim Renwrick in the future??!!!
Nice version of this one. Got to see the man on his solo tour for About Face and was loving watching him play most of the songs off of this album up close and intimate in an opera house. You could see it on his face that he was having a great time.
David Gilmour is one of my favorite rock artists. They just don't make music like this anymore. Music now days doesn't have this kind of soul. He is on my list of top 10 guitarists. Sucks to get old (50) cuz that means my favorite rock stars are too.
@brb0713 Wow...did not know that, sorry if I didn't go back through all the posts, but please tell me who wrote this song?? It is mesmerizing!! Dave didd an awesome job as usuall owning this song...but would love to know the history of it...Thanks...Sarge...
I've always been a big rock fan. Back in the day (70's & 80's) it was all about Page, Beck, Clapton, Blackmore etc. I've since gained much more appreciation for the guitarists who were not necessarily forfront. Though Gilmour is pretty much forfront, there's always been an understated presence about him that I really appreciate. Great vid. Thanks for posting.
I can't stop listening to that song. I slept only 4 hours because of it. It's good that not a single fucker has found that video yet and there aren't any dislikes :))
The only decent run he has done,without his nemesis Roger,and it had to be a cover.Sounds like a criticism,not really for Dave, can run some serious lines.Bugger that Roger,can!t control his ego.
@goneby100 Are you saying this song/album is the only good work that David Gilmour has released without Roger Waters? That's a stupid comment you made if it indeed implies that. Have you listened to the On An Island album??? He wrote that album and it is as a whole is better than this album and there are better songs on there than this song. Peaked at #6 on this US charts. I'm not sure this album even made the top 200 Billboard.
@geoffm85 Not at all Geoff.Like Dave a lot, just a pity that Rodger cant stop hogging the lime light,and that the three of them cannot put their past diffrences where they belong in the past and do another album.
Such a great song! Very good video and audio quality here. I hear alot of people say about how Roger Waters is a big deal. I totally disagree. I tried watchin his videos of Pink Floyd songs and they do not compare at all. Gilmour's voice and guitar made Pink Floyd so good, and watchin this video here should show it! There is alot of emotion he conveys through this song.
Gilmour is awesome,and man,can those girls sing!What a sound they have.No autotune in 1978.That's just pure vocal power.They would send most girl singers today running for cover.
@toogonejohn2 : Are you sure that you even know what you're looking at here?? The video above is David Gilmour in 1978 covering a song written by an American Band called "Unicorn" who recorded a much more folksy version of the song. . . Gilmour produced the Album by Unicorn which contained this song.
Monster Magnet did a cover of the original, much like GIlmour covered it 0ver 30 years ago.
@Zephyesa Actually, Syd Barrett was on only the first couple of LP's of Pink Floyd. David Gilmour was on over twenty years of music by Pink Floyd. I am not saying anything against Syd, I even own a tape of Pipers at the Gates of Dawn, but I think that David Gilmour had emmensely more of a imapact on their music than Syd.
@thancrow If Syd didn't burned his brain, who's to say he wouldn't have done just as well as David Gimour? We'll never know. To say David helped the band more is kind of daft by the fact that he was able to perform when Syd was not.
@rebelspirit1000 Actually, Dave taught Syd a lot of guitar before Floyd. So perhaps, if this or if that may not come into play really. Things have a funny way of working out, and let's face it, Gilmour is the guitar of Pink Floyd. Though Syd was an interesting songwriter, let's face it, his solo material after Floyd pales to Floyd in terms of diversity, variety, innovation, etc. Not to discount Barrett's contributions, but I will never understand the post-Barrett Floyd/Gilmour grudge.
I didn't even know that either you did the orginal and monster magnet copied, or if you are a cover band, or if you released the song long ago. I takes a big foot to fill in monster magnets shoe's, but you did them proud.
@IvoCro1053; He changed to the rosewood neck in 1973 for DSOTM, with the 1963 one from the '59 sunburst Strat. In '79 he put the custom maple Grover Jackson/Charvel neck on.
I need to go back in time for the chance to bear his children or something. Love how one of the solos reminds me of Is Your Love Strong Enough. He's got his own totally unique style, he owns it, and the key to any girl's time traveling chastity belt.
Katy Segal is one of the back up singers!!
