LIVE AT KNEBWORTH
The concert was part of the star-studded 1990 Silver Clef Award Winners performance at Knebworth House, in Hertfordshire, England, headlined by Pink Floyd.

The concert, in front of around 120,000 fans, was a fundraiser for the Nordoff Robbins Music Therapy Charity, and also included Paul McCartney, Genesis, Dire Straits, Eric Clapton, Cliff Richard & The Shadows, Elton John, Status Quo, Tears For Fears, and Robert Plant & Jimmy Page.

The Floyd set was performed by the touring line-up of the late 1980s, with a slight change to the vocalists – joining Durga McBroom was Sam Brown, her mother Vicki, and Clare Torry (original vocalist for The Great Gig In The Sky). Saxophonist Candy Dulfer and keyboard player Michael Kamen also joined the band for this one-off show. The audio has been remixed by David Gilmour and Andy Jackson, and following its appearance in 2019’s The Later Years box set, is now available on CD or double vinyl for the first time as a standalone album.

  1. i don't like this. the edits in the solo are clunky and the vocals feel a bit overproduced. oh well. not everything is for everyone.

  2. "This Departed soundtrack is killer."

  3. What does 2021 edit mean? Sounds like 2019 to me? The 2nd solo is still cut.. Which is a total fuckup.

  4. They have made a mess of the end solo cut and paste’s are to obvious, they should have just kept the original still a good version though 👍

  5. Thank's… Soon Bye good nightS for you and our familly…

  6. Las Vegas says:

    This honestly might be my favorite performance of comfortably numb. That solo is face-melting 🎸

  7. That cut on the solo sounds awful and unnatural

  8. Pink Floyd is the healer 💙💙💙

  9. …даже различие в инструментах

  10. … скорее не Гильмор

  12. Fantástico simplemente👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎼🎼🎼👍👍👍

  13. Noel says:

    The 'Gilmour Bend' in the end w/ the full blown, in your face drums keys guitar .. Those boys know how to produce, whether it was banging a tin can or production. Uuiff..Powerful. Thanks..
    TRIPLE SMILING ; )))

  14. Noel says:

    The "Prick" means so many things, simply altering ..

  15. Noel says:

    I LITERALLY just heard this song w/ YET Another interpretation. (there have been a few or more!) It went from myself to my last year as 'teenager' sons mom. I have never referenced any 'drug' interpretation, not in my wheelhouse. Just how time is fleeting .. From self absorption to realization to.. to.. to.. PeaceLoveFloyd

    The glare on the record should not rotate.

  19. PINK FLOYD THE BEST BAND EVER 💚💚

  20. Yabuki Joe says:

    The Best Solo Version

  21. I hope I can un-hear this.

  22. " Pink Floyd"это классика рока,это вечно…

  23. Recortan la canción, la versión original dura 8:12 minutos

  24. Maybe the greatest Classic rock song of all time

  25. damn, Knebworth is less than 3 miles from my house. This gig also took place 5 years before I was born. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

  26. Gilmour does some interesting and beautiful variations on his vocals on this version.

  27. Sinceramente espetácular, muito bom 💝.

  28. Great music and the fantastic Pink Floyd !

  29. Well if this the version to go on the Vinyl, I may leave it, the editing / cutting is pretty disappointing on the solo and in my books ruins it. I was hoping this would have been un edited……

  30. In college I had a band that covered this version from Knebworth. We played the hell out of that original CD. So glad to see this re-released!

  31. Pink Floyd is one of the best bands in the world

  32. Final solo doesn’t flow, a lot of edits, spoils the rhythm…. sorry I love this song but too many edits. PS I was there at the concert – all those years ago… you can see me on the fron cover of the album… I’m the one in the bright orange/pink/yellow t shirt in front of the sound stage 👍🏻

  33. David Wall says:

    This solo is cutting. The Original is netter.

  34. Mandy 1 says:

    Classic!!! forever 🎶🎶❤

  35. Nice audio tweaking. Thats real neat sounding!
