Oh yeah, Pulse rules hard.

Yeah Pulse is awesome.
Live in Gdansk features Gilmoir performing the whole of his last solo album On An Island which is great but it's the classic Floyd tracks that are the standouts.

"Gilmour sounds incredible on his most recent solo live album, Live in Gdansk."
Same goes for Remember That Night: Live at the Royal Albert Hall. Just one year earlier, phenomenal.

"Can't imagine seeing Waters play Dark Side without Gilmour, it just doesn't seem right."
and vice versa

plz explain the rating sir

Album Rating: 3.0
what's to explain? there are 25 or so tracks and only like 5 of them are really good hence the 2.5.

and vice versa
Not so much the other way around imo. In terms of musical input Waters role on that album is fairly minimal compared to Gilmour's (until the last 6 minutes or so). Of course lyrically it's a totally different story but that doesn't really come into it in terms of live performance.
Gilmour plays Dark Side in it's entirety on the Floyd live album Pulse without Waters and that performance is superb.

PULSE was with Mason and Wright, though. But yeah, Dark Side live with Gilmour fronting would be cool

"that performance is superb."
the performance was good but it's just off without waters
|
| |
How exactly may I ask? Are you referring to the bass playing? Or the vocals on the last two tracks?
|
| |
@Night: Yeah I know dude, just saying it seems more 'wrong' to play Dark Side without Gilmour than it does to play it without Waters given the former's considerable dominance in terms of the music compared to the latter. Just like it's perfectly fine for Waters to play this without Gilmour whereas the other way around it wouldn't be right at all.

the vocals for sure. and part of it is just knowing that he wasn't involved kinda takes something out of the performance for me.
|
| |
Seeing as Waters only sung about 6 minutes of the album (all be it a crucial 6 mins) I don't think the vocals are too much of an issue. It's not like Water's was a particularly good singer, although that part did suit his voice quite well.

i've just always felt that with floyd it's definitely the "whole is greater than the sum of it's parts" thing so if any of the 4 aren't there it's not really floyd

Jamie: Alright, I agree then - but would still like to see just either do it 
I really enjoy PULSE. The lack of Waters doesn't really bother me tbh. Which is probably why, as Jamie pointed out, the Wall is for him to make; DSotM is more of Gilmour's task

I forgot to mention that Live in Gdansk features Rick Wright. His last recorded performance I think.

Watched comfortably numb from that show yesterday. Gilmour ain't soloing as smoothly as he used to
damn

Album Rating: 3.0
well he's like 80 so he's probably got some bitchin arthritis

Album Rating: 3.3
He's only about 67 lol. And when Live at Gdansk was recorded he was about 60 I think? But yeah, it is indeed a brilliant performance. The On an Island album is fucking good as well.
|
| |
I think his soloing is still incredible on Live in Gdansk. It might not be quite as fluid as it once was but it's still full of emotion
which is what's most important in a solo like Comfortably Numb.
