  • The best version of this song i``ve ever heard. Great musicians!

  • I love how Gilmour and Wright take turns to solo! It's Amazing!

  • the word 'shredding' is the only word that comes to mind in this song! peace from australia

  • lets be always Dave and Rick once here is to it and forever,ISUS BLESS Rick Wright

  • God Isus bless them by my heart

  • @assasingh0st did u listen to the whole song or just this part? its a 24 min song. Great song. U must be one of those people with a short attention spands without the Marijuana

  • Comment removed

  • Missing Nick Masons drums, but other then that best live performance Ive seen since Pompei

    Greatest Pink Floyd song imho

  • I think this is one of the best live performances of Echoes I have ever heard.

    David plays the guitar with such intensity, and of course it's one of Richards latest live performances before he passed away (R.I.P).

  • tears in my eys,men this is good!

  • Glad to hear Wright rockin' out on the keyboard FINALLY!

  • the echoes of the universe, the echoes of the inner us! I could die gratefully after listened to this masterpiece!

  • @pallisandreas

    play it at your funeral

  • por lo q puevo conprobar es la cacion favorita de muchos....entre los q me incluyo....GRANDISIMA COMPOSICION...

  • Absolute epic! Personally prefer the Albert Hall version, you can see a lot more of who plays what & how & you get the full version. Kudos Mr Wright, RIP x

  • This played at my funeral please

  • David is meticulous -- we can safely bet that there is almost nothing about this solo here that is any different from Pompeii.

  • I believe that this is what heaven will sound like. Even the "scary section."

  • anybody has any idea how David does that scary sounds in scary part of this song?

    i`ve read in Nick Mason`s "inside out" book that David does that sounds with wah pedal.

    but i can`t imagine how a wah pedal can make such sounds.

    perhaps he also uses a slide and echoes?(literally)

  • @k0stil According to Wikipedia, the Wah Wah is connected in reverse. It happened by accident during recording...

  • @Seiltur09

    what does it mean?

  • @Seiltur09 i tried it out a while ago and it works, if you use your wah in a fx-loop it doesn't work but straight to your amp it will give the right sound

    i've used a Vox wah btw

  • @nietjob what vox wah did you use ?

  • @luki01111 v847

  • @k0stil

    are all the sounds produced from Gilmour? I think that it most of it is from the keyboard. But sure, some of it are produced with the guitar, I can clearly hear it a guitar in some points. I

    I think he uses pick scratching, especially in the end of "scary section" there's clearly evident pick slide

  • @somatder

    these sounds are also used in "is there anybody out there" from "the wall"

  • @k0stil

    If you search for "seagull effect" on youtube, you'll find many videos explaining how it's done.

  • 2 people don't know what music means...

  • This is absolute musical talent on display.

  • Richard Rest in Peace , Pink Floyd Forever....

  • I need to see how david makes those screeches!

  • an epic soundscape of music..probably my fave Floyd tune of all time..Like flying to the moon and back...one hell of a journey!!

  • Timeless.

  • why is this in mono? part 1 was stereo...

  • i wish rick would have solo'd more on the farfisa

  • Rick was best than ever here! Oh the things these two guys could have done... Of course, they already did more than anyone else, but their potential wasn't even nearly spent. It's simply incredible.

  • echoes is a song that gives me goosebumps from the first accord played.. and then the intro sentenace is soooo pretty... and then all the effects come to play.. it's simply one of the greatest songs from the greatest band ever.. thank you so much for sharing

  • well put. This song is a masterpiece. I jam with a buddy to this all the time.

  • One word: PERFECTION. 'Nuff said.

  • my favourite song ever

    think I'll never change this

  • agree. 100%

  • fantastic

  • Watch out... it's not Pink Floyd, is Gilmour. Anyway, is really fantastic!

  • I LOVE HOW RICK PLAYED THE ORGAN AT THIS SONG.... VERY NICE... A VERY GOOD JAM!!!

    DEP Richard wright

  • Rick rocked the hell out of that organ... what an awesome musician, he will be missed deeply!!!!!!!!

  • Best gig ever! It was best concerts of my life!

  • Careful with the title of the vid... please keep in mind this isn't Pink Floyd.

  • Actually I just found out he makes those screeches (during the strange scary part) with a wah hooked up the opposite way. Some roadie did it on accident for him once and then the sound was born

  • he stops to itch himself at 1:55!!!

    awesome song

  • best song ever

  • part where Rick Wright and David play after one another, is just pure classic. pure psychedelic.

    2 great talents.

  • How does David make those screeching sounds?

  • A lot of distortion. I think he throws in some artificial harmonics in there. Its mostly the fuzz effect he has on that guitar. My favorite pedal ever made.

  • You don't know what you're talking about. Absolutely no idea. It's created by plugging in the wah wah pedal backwards. "A lot of distortion." "Artificial harmonics." "Fuzz effect on the guitar." Failure.

  • I agree. I am not sure what I was really referring to here. Considering this was a month ago. No clue but fail it is, oh well. Great job pointing out someone being wrong on the internet and doing so in a classy fashion as so many people tend to do. Right on sir!

  • as far as pluggin' the wah wah in backwords . .who don't know what they're talking about? watch the pompeii vid and you see he uses a slide way up high . .plug a pedal backwards and it won't work. . duh . .

  • Pompeii was nearly 40 years ago. Look up the reverse phase wah and there is an interview with the man himself..

  • . . ohyeah . . with a reverse phase wah, yeah , , not with a regular wah cuz there's no way to do it. But he still did the seagulls with a slide way up high. .

  • my bands guitarist plugged a wah backwards one time and it made the same sound as in echoes.

  • @cesinis thats how Glimour does it. backwards Vox wah with a bunch of echo

  • @pagboy529 What do you mean by backwards? Plug guitar into output? Is it able only in Vox wah?

  • Peacefrog is right. Ive read plenty of interviews and the sound was born when a roady accidently plugged in a wah backwards and it made these shrieking sounds

  • with that slide i think...at least on pompei he uses it

  • true dat easy peezy japanesey

  • A Candidate for greatest song of all time perhaps?

  • Best song ever!!

  • It really is!

  • and someone doubt it?

  • @tomdickens87 Not a candidate, ITS the greatest song of all time.

  • @tomdickens87 What do you mean by "perhaps"?

  • @tomdickens87 I agree too and not just because its a long song. It keeps u listening. I know PF songs that are about 2min long or less that have just as much impact on me as Echos.

  • anyone know what the chords are that is being played on the keyboards after the seagull section ?? its beauitful..

  • This is like single-malt scotch: you don't dare waste a single drop.

  • 3 words: Best Song Ever

  • 3 more words: Radiant Flawless Gem ;o)

  • Why isn't Nick Mason at this concert???

  • I only meant Nick Mason the original drummer for Pink Floyd... where is he? He's not performing here..

    Thanks for the thumbs down assholes.

  • It's not Pink Floyd's concert, as it's written here.

    It's David Gilmour's concert, and Richard Wright is playing with him.

    So Nick can't play here, unfortunatelly.

  • Best song ever by pink floyd..!!!

  • listen to that......just beautifull

  • This is better than everything. Best song ever, best guitarist ever and pink floyd- best band ever

  • look at the old guys, better than a lot of young bands today...

  • " a lot of young bands"? you mispelled "every young bands"

  • the young can never surpass the old in music

  • oh my god... i thought the fade out is made by PA or soundman or whatever.... but it's made by the band..

  • oh man wats with wright never seen him so animated before:P

  • ye had a bit too much to drink b4 the gig

  • He's Jamming.

  • Check out "C-numb" from the Live 8 reunion... he gets pretty animated at the end of that as well! (As do Mason and Waters!)

  • best jam i've ever seen

  • Better than Pompeii one.

  • no, impossible, pompeii 's probably the best live perfomance of all time

  • Amen to that, Zaza. That's the version by which all others are judged.

  • That and Pulse.

  • man, this is awesome. i had no idea Rick & Dave were playing so well in this tour! they're playing their arses off!

  • this is one of the tightest versions I've heard;

    Rick is pushing himself a lot more than in the old days!

  • I swear to God, this entire track is the most magnificant piece of music I have ever listened to. And at 50 years I have listened to A LOT. Get the CD NOW. Have a few beers. Switch the lights off, turn it up and be transported to another world!

  • I consider echoes as a Pink Floyd piece ,if u think diffrent, pitty..

  • echoes IS a pink floyd piece.

  • its dave gilmour not pink floyd please post an annotation as pink floyd split up. gd vid tho

  • what he ment is that the name of this video should be davd gilmour because with the name pink floyd can confuse some people. i´'s just that

  • He is right! Echoes should always be considered as Pink Floyd piece! This just a great performance of David Gilmour.

  • @DrUmMeRsC What do you mean only David. With all due respect to David, all the guys wrote this song back then 34 or how many years ago. To me, personally, the song is what it is because of Richard mainly.

  • @DrUmMeRsC

    50% of the Pink Floyd are on stage, let alone Echoes being a signature Floyd piece. It's PF. Ultimate PF, the best performance of Echoes ever, imo.

  • the best IMO

  • One of the best Pink Floyd songs!
