Waters--the remaining members of Pink Floyd
reformed, augmented by a multitude of back-up
musicians, and hit the road. This double-CD is the
result, its 18 tracks covering a broad selection
of the band's 30-year career, from early classics
(the still-magnificent "Astronomy Domine") through
to more recent cuts, such as "Learning To Fly" and
"Keep Talking". Occasionally the desire to
replicate the "live" atmosphere becomes annoying
(except on "Another Brick In The Wall, Part Two",
where it seems almost appropriate)--particularly
when you consider that most of this band's great
music has been about paranoia and isolation,
rather than any notion of community. Equally
puzzling is the decision to devote the second CD
to a performance of Dark Side Of The Moon which,
though played in its entirety, adds precisely
nothing to its original incarnation. Mostly,
though, Pulse is every bit as vast and impressive
as you'd expect. --Andrew McGuire

Pink Floyd - Pulse (Two Discs) (DVD)   [1994] Pink Floyd - Pulse (Two Discs) (DVD) [1994]
At long last Pink Floyd: Pulse has arrived on DVD, and Floyd fans already know it's a ... more
major cause to celebrate. The original VHS release
was a milestone bestseller, but it seemed to take
forever for the DVD to arrive, with numerous
delays while Floyd guitarist David Gilmour and
long-time Floyd producer James Guthrie labored to
restore, re-edit, and remix this legendary concert
video in 5.1-channel Dolby Surround Sound. The
resulting two-disc set was well worth the wait:
While the limitations of the original video source
are still evident in the sometimes-hazy image
quality (Gilmour would later admit the concert
should have been captured on film), Floyd fans
will unanimously agree that Pulse has never looked
or sounded better, and only the absence of group
co-founder Roger Waters prevents this from being
the ultimate document of Pink Floyd in
performance. (Even without Waters, it's easily one
of the group's most impressive stage productions.)
Gracefully directed with minimal intrusion by
veteran music video and concert director David
Mallet, and shot on video during Pink Floyd's
two-week stint at London's Earls Court Exhibition
Centre in October 1994, this 145-minute
performance (from Floyd's Division Bell tour) is a
sonic marvel to behold. Under a massive arch
festooned with then-state-of-the-art laser,
lighting, and projection systems, the 1987
incarnation of Pink Floyd (Gilmour, keyboardist
Richard Wright, and drummer Nick Mason) and their
stellar supporting band kicks off with "Shine on
You Crazy Diamond" (a loving tribute to Floyd
co-founder Syd Barrett), followed by four tracks
from The Division Bell, two from 1987's A
Momentary Lapse of Reason, "Another Brick in the
Wall (Part 2)" from 1979's magnum opus The Wall,
and leading into intermission with absolutely
stunning performance of "One of These Days," the
timeless opening track from 1971's Meddle.The
centerpiece of Disc 2 is a near-perfect
performance of 1974's Dark Side of the Moon in its
entirety--reason enough to make this a must-have
DVD for even the most casual Floyd admirers. And
while no one will ever re-create the sheer
magnificence of Clare Torry's original tour de
force vocals on "The Great Gig in the Sky," it's
safe to say that backup singers Sam Brown, Claudia
Fontaine, and Durga McBroom deliver the next best
thing, in addition to seamless contributions
throughout the concert. After the closing
heartbeat of "Eclipse," the concert ends with
encore performances of "Wish You Were Here,"
"Comfortably Numb," and a no-holds-barred,
pyrotechnically explosive rendition of The Wall's
"Run Like Hell," all showcasing Gilmour's guitar
mastery with frequent close-ups of his picking and
fret-work as seen throughout the concert. (Like
Gilmour, Mason and Wright were never dynamic
onstage, and that's true here as well, but their
technical precision is fully evident, and while
guitarist Tim Renwick and saxophonist Dick Parry
are each given moments to shine, bassist Guy Pratt
is a worthy substitution for Waters, especially
when vocally sparring with Gilmour on "Run Like
Hell.")With beautiful packaging, an 8-page
booklet, and menu designs by long-time Floyd
associate Storm Thorgerson, the DVDs offer an
abundance of bonus features including "Bootlegging
the Bootleggers," featuring surprisingly
good-quality "boot" video performances of "What Do
You Want From Me?," "On the Turning Away," "Poles
Apart," and "Marooned." The surreal round-ratio
screen films seen throughout the concert can all
be viewed independently (still in round format,
and several offered in both original and alternate
versions). Music videos for "Learning to Fly" and
"Take It Back" are included on Disc 1, along with
"Tour Stuff" including maps, itineraries, and
stage plans for the 1994 tour. "Say Goodbye to
Life as We Know It" is a playful backstage video
(mostly involving the production staff's ongoing
quest for a good pint of beer), and after
delivering a heartfelt introduction to Pink
Floyd's 1996 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame (with Roger Waters and Syd Barrett
acknowledged by Gilmour), Smashing Pumpkins leader
Billy Corgan joins Gilmour and Wright for a moving
acoustic performance of "Wish You Were Here"
(directed at Waters, perhaps?). Additional
features include album cover art, a photo gallery,
and the concert-only audio choice between a
448kbps audio bitstream or a higher-quality
640kbps stream for higher-quality DVD players. The
system set-up feature ensures that audiophiles
will achieve optimum speaker performance in
keeping with Pink Floyd's exacting technical
standards. In tandem with the superior concert
presentation, these features make Pulse one of the
best--if not the best--music DVDs of 2006,
guaranteed to satisfy Floyd fans for many years to
come. --Jeff Shannon

A Dazzling Domain of Poetic Proportions
Review of Pulse - Pink Floyd by HappyBunny

Advantages: Brings together a great selection of Pink Floyd songs
Disadvantages: None

...their demise were untrue. Pulse is the tour that followed. It was my first Pink Floyd gig. Earl’s Court, several days after the stands collapsed during the first concert that the Floyd played there for the tour. Panic. My panic. I wasn’t going to be denied going to the concert I’d wanted to go to for 6 years was I…? I went. I marvelled. I was in awe. I listened. I watched. I felt the sensation of powerful music and moving ...
...that isn’t the Floyd’s way. Pulse is a collection of some of their greatest live songs, which incidentally does include a lot from their last album, The Division Bell. There is no way in this big-wide world of ours, that I’m going to do a resume of every song that appears on Pulse. There are 24 of them. A big-stonking double CD’s worth. No way. Instead you’ll get a synopsis of this wonderful concert-CD, with a selection ... Read review

The live album to beat all others
Review of Pulse - Pink Floyd by Pritch

Advantages: Breathtaking album
Disadvantages: None

...of their freshness. The Pulse combines several Floyd albums, including the whole of Dark Side of the Moon, which was done as an encore after a concert. To many, this may seem like a con, but even for those who already have Dark Side of the Moon, it's well worth it, to hear the songs performed with new vigour and Pink Floyds legendary concert presence. Anybody out there who considers themselves a Floyd fan should go and get this album immediately. ... Read review

Best Live Album i own
Review of Pulse - Pink Floyd by hanktheshredder

Advantages: Adrenaline Flowing Flod - No complaints!
Disadvantages: I would have had a different set list

When you hear the words 'Live Album', your mind generally thinks of either shoddy production work, a souvenier from a gig you have been to, or some of teh best music available. This album would be in the latter. This was the album that got me into Pink Floyd, and with me now having all of their back catalogue, it is still my favourite of their works. The Production is studio quality, picking up every hit of Nick Mason's drum wether it be an accidental ...
...work, stunningly simple but effective. Dave Gilmour is one of the best users of FX that i have encountered in my time as a musician. Although the bass player is relitavely new, the singers are no where near the original and their's a Noddy Holder look-a-like on rythm guitars, there is little to find fault with in this album. All i would say is, to my taste, i would have liked to have heard a live version of 'One of These Days' or 'Dogs of War', ... Read review

What a wicked album!
Review of Pulse - Pink Floyd by michellej

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...it, they said that the pulse would die out after six months or so, but they were drastically wrong because it only died at the beginning of this year! This is a limited edition album, the cover is amazing with angels and what looks to be a big iris. The double Cd is enlcosed in a little book with lots more wacky and wierd photos and pictures taken from their concert. I went to thier concert after the stage fell down - if anyone remembers!
