    Pink Floyd to release PULSE DVD

    Well it took long enough, but it seems to have been worth the wait.

    Read it for yourselves:


    Pink Floyd to release PULSE DVD





    On 5 December 2005, Pink Floyd will release their much anticipated DVD, PULSE, on EMI Records. This landmark release captures the last ever Pink Floyd tour in 1994, and was filmed at London's Earls Court, on one of the recordbreaking 14 nights there. The two disc release contains a full concert performance from Pink Floyd's 80 date global Division Bell tour, with rare backstage footage and previously unseen extras.

    Pink Floyd are a band whose innovative and groundbreaking music is matched by the startling imagery created by longtime design collaborator, Storm Thorgerson. The Pulse DVD looks as good as it sounds, mixed in mind expanding 5.1 surround sound and digitally remastered by James Guthrie, it includes a magical collection of exclusive extras, new artwork and menu graphics designed by Thorgerson.

    The concert is in two parts, the first half sees seminal performances by David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright of tracks such as Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2), One of These Days and Keep Talking, while disc two features the classic album The Dark Side of the Moon performed in its entirety. Never before seen rarities include Bootlegging the Bootleggers, behind the scenes footage showing a snapshot of life on the road with one of the world's biggest rock bands and a screen film of Speak to Me. The Pulse DVD captures Pink Floyd's final concert tour, although no-one knew it to be at the time. It was the last concert they played together live, and their show-stopping appearance at this year's Live 8, confirmed their legendary status.

    Never could figure out why they didn't release this on DVD before now

    I bought the VHS version of that in 1995, and that tape absolutely brings the house down. On DVD, with the added features, it will be worth every penny it sells for. I remember running my 100-watt Onkyo receiver at 100% and having the sound be perfectly clear, but when the plane crashes (literally) onto the stage in the sequence of "on the run" going into "time" (from the dark side of the moon) my receiver went dead silent and displayed "overload" in the matrix display. Wow. This is probably the best reason yet for december to get here! Thanks for sharing the news.

    You would have loved the Laser Disk version. Audiophile (sp?) performance, if you can tollerate the disk flipping and having to deal with two discs.

    Other Pink Floyd Pics

    Being a Pink Floyd fan as I am, I feel compelled to recommend the DVD "Pink Floyd Live At Pompeii". I think I payed about $20 for mine at Best Buy earlier this year. If you've never seen it and you are a fan, it's a must have. It is a timeless gem that loses little from the original which I saw on the big screen. It has added footage from the original release.

    The more I learn, the more I find out I don't know.

    Confusion will be my epitaph...

    I'll second that.

    They really functioned as a single unit during that concert!

    Live At Pompeii

    As a teaser, I should mention the concert is at the actual Pompeii amphitheater in Italy and there are no concertgoers! Proper listening requires an amp that goes to 11. One scene that should be replayed is when the drummer loses a drumstick, grabs another, and never loses a beat. Pliny the Elder would have loved it. That darned Mt. Vesuvius just ruined everything.

    To this day, every time I hear Dark Side of the Moon, I remember where the tracks change on my old Muntz 8 track in the 66 Mustang fastback with the shackles on the rear end... Ah, those were the days...

    I'm just waiting for Wizard of Oz to play on TV sometime this Christmas so I can DVR it... I've been wanting to try to check out that myth I heard for years of the movie sync'ing up perfectly with the Dark Side of the Moon album.

    Not a myth

    It's not a myth, it is one of the most strange coincidences in the history of man. The video is available cheap everywhere.

    It is no myth. The down side is you have to listen to DSOTM three times to get throught the movie. But it is a valid sync.

    Thanks fot the update on this thread. I completely forgot to post on this.
