Product ReviewsPink Floyd - Pulse (DVD, 2-Disc Set)

Pink Floyd - Pulse (2006, DVD)

This landmark DVD features the first ever film of Pink Floyd playing the band's seminal album, The Dark Side of the Moon, live in concert. The set documents the 1994 Division Bell tour and was filmed at London's Earls Court during a record-breaking 14-night residency. The two-disc release contains the full concert performance with rare backstage footage and previously unseen extras making the collection a must-have for Pink Floyd fans.
Disc 2 features a live filmed performance of Pink Floyd--David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Rick Wright--performing the group's towering masterpiece, The Dark Side of the Moon, in its glorious entirety during the second half of the Division Bell concert. Included on disc 1 are "Shine on You Crazy Diamond," "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)," "High Hopes," and "Learning to Fly" as well as never-before-seen rarities such as Bootlegging the Bootleggers and exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of life on the road with one of the world's biggest and most influential rock bands.

Mixed in mind-expanding 5.1 surround sound and digitally re-mastered by James Guthrie, the Pulse DVD includes some of original screen films used for the 1970s concert performances of The Dark Side of the Moon (which were never filmed) as well as the visual components for the piece which were remade for the 1994 tour.Read full review...

One of the best concerts ever held......With a lot of extra Dark Side...

This concert is simply amazingly filmed and moving. surprising and exhilarating....emotional and over the top in a great way. The icing on the cake is Dark Side of the Moon played live in total album-like continuity, followed by an absolutely explosive ending. the reviews are generally the same. this is one of the best few bucks you will ever spend if you remotely like Pink Floyd..or Live concerts. The detail put into the filming of this last live show is absolutely mind boggling. This would be one of my "desert island" picks. Incredible replay value and visuals!Read full review...

Great Concert DVD by the best band in history!

This is a great concert DVD by the best musical group in history. The music would speak to you without the lyrics and the lyrics are superb. Get this DVD! As a matter of fact, get all their music beginning with Dark Side of the Moon onward. The stuff before that was a bit out there for my taste. The inability of Gilmour and Waters to continue to work together to create new music was the world's great loss. Read full review...

PINK FLOYD'S BEST LIVE DVD 1994... THE G.O.A.T.

Anything from this DVD is phenomenal!!

Pink Floyd is a very deep band... musically, lyrically and live performances (lights, sound & production = WOW!!), etc...

1965 - 2014!! Lots of goodness in all those years; honestly it's impossible to state what is their best stuff - that IMO is up to the listener. * I would recommend understanding the lyrics and or the entire album concept (yes, whole album's are one concept; well not all of them). The easiest way to resolve the story or meaning behind a song or album is to look up the title on wikipedia and then if you wish the lyrics while listening (wearing headphones); you'll be glad you did. Pink Floyd is The G.O.A.T.!!!

I myself suggest these EPIC 10 live songs; the studio versions are great too!! : 1) "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 2) "Hey You" 3) "Us and Them/Any Colour You Like/Brain Damage/Eclipse" (all 4 parts) 4) "High Hopes" 5) "Time/Breathe Reprise" 6) "Dogs" 7) "Sorrow" 8) "Pigs (3 different ones)" 9) "Welcome To The Machine" 10) "The Great Gig In The Sky" *** "Comfortably Numb" (everyone has reacted to this one)

Fact: "You don't need drugs to enjoy Pink Floyd but you definitely need Pink Floyd to enjoy your drugs!!" Fact 2: "I don't do drugs!!"

PINK FLOYD'S BEST DVD!!

YES, I KNOW, ROGER WATERS IS NOT ON THIS ONE. BUT, IF I HAD TO CHOOSE ONE, I'LL TAKE DAVID GILMORE. THEY SHOULD HAVE STAYED TOGETHER. THIS WAS RECORDED IN 1994, AT EARL'S COURT, LONDON ENGLAND. IT HAS 22 OF THEIR BEST SONGS. TOO MANY EXTRA'S TO LIST. THE MAIN CONCERT IS ABOUT 2 1/2 HOURS BY ITSELF. TOTAL RUN TIME IS ABOUT 4 HOURS. ROGER WATERS HAS THE WALL ON DVD, BUT I PREFER THIS ONE. THIS IS THE BEST QUALITY DVD OF FLOYD I HAVE FOUND. I WISH THEY WOULD REMASTER AN OLD CONCERT FROM THE OLD DAYS WHEN THEY WERE ALL TOGETHER (MINUS SYD BARRET). PEACE OUT!!!Read full review...

Fantastic concert

One of the greatest rock bands of the past 50 years and one of the all time best concerts. Only thing that takes away from a perfect score for me is the video quality is just a tad on the soft side. My fault though I ordered the DVD not Blue Ray. Just the same the audio is fantastic and David Gilmores solo on Comfortably Numb is without a doubt the best ever recorded…..just amazing!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Read full review...

Pink Floyd Pulse

Loved this group since my teens.
I grew old and they weren't suppose to.
But, alas, inevitably, they have too.
My grandsons watched with me and suddenly surprised when they started playing The Wall, which they did know well.
Love Dave Gilmore playing.
Hoped that Time would show more of the great Nick Mason drum solo, but they preferred to show some animation which wasn't bad.
A bit disheartening.
I just would have preferred they would have shown the solo.Read full review...

One of the Finest Rock Concert Performances I've Seen on Film!

A spectacular concert! Many tracks are from The Division Bell and Momentary Lapse of Reason.
There is also a complete performance of Dark Side of the Moon. I had the pleasure of seeing them on this tour. I am immensely happy they made this concert available.

David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Rick Wright

The BEST value for over 15+ hours of HQ content!

More than 15 hours of content on 2 DVDs, costing much less than a dollar per hour of features when new, one cannot find any other comparable DVD value than Pulse by Pink Floyd. I often wonder why we accept less than 3 hours of content on DVDs today that cost at least $25, when it's obvious that DVDs can hold 7+ hours each of such super quality, high definition audio & video?

This set is JAM packed with so many features, music & videos, live performances, behind the scenes, photography & even Bootlegging the Bootleggers clips! Watching the concert footage, one can see the Eye screen shows videos, and in the special features ALL of those screen videos are included so the viewer won't miss out by just concentrating on the live performances! The stage show is an event in itself, plus the light shows & stage design blueprints are also included for those tech savvy curious geeks like me.

For fans of Pink Floyd, this set is a no-brainer bargain of such huge value, it boggles the mind. For those who are just getting into Pink Floyd, the same is true, for very little money you will explore just about every aspect of this group & how they approach their shows & appreciate their fans, to how their mind's work & who comes up with the graphic art work inherent in all the visual goods to the stories behind the songs & images.

The other reviewers covered the music & specific content, so I'm just making sure buyers know what to expect for their money, and what a value this steal is for your money, when these days we often get less and pay more; this is one time when you may find the content worth up to 4 times more than the price paid. Enjoy :-)Read full review...

P.U.L.S.E. Live at Earls Court 10.20.94, London

When I was a Masters student in 1994, I traveled to the U. of Iowa to present at a conference. While walking outside that night over the campus bridge, all of a sudden, a burst of fabulous lights & Pink Floyd came flowing vibrantly clear sounds across the campus. We could see & hear their whole concert from our vantage point. Who cared about having a seat for it? We were on our feet the whole time, standing mesmerized.

I was a die-hard fan by 1974, after the 1973 release of the "Dark Side of the Moon," vinyl album. "The Wall," in both 2 disc CD & DVD forms became tied for Best Album with the former "Dark Side," as far as I was concerned. Who's to say which one is greater, when both are beyond the edge in every aspect, blowing every other band off the charts.

Now both albums are blended together (& more) in P.U.L.S.E., the Dolby Digital 5.1 stereo live recording at Earls Court in London, England, on October, 20th, 1994.

The double DVD set is enclosed in a colorful laminated sturdy jacket. Inside there's a pocket with a mini 'program' of all that's on both DVDs. The centerfold if full of photographs of the band playing live, including still shots of their fabulous light show. I saw those green laser-like lights that night on the Iowa campus. They lit up the starry sky (on a drenched campus that had nearly been flooded out) for what seemed like miles. I can hardly believe I get to relive that lucky moment every time I play these DVDs. No one told us, the conference attendees, that Pink Floyd was on campus! Had I known, I'd have found a way in.

In retrospect, I realize now, we had the best view outside of the stadium looking downward onto the stage from a distance because it made Pink Floyd's amazing light show all the more spectacular & grand.

If you don't know the songs on both "Dark Side of the Moon," & "The Wall," look them up in my reviews of those CDs/DVD.

Whoever first said, "you can't relive the past," was way wrong ::winking::
Watching this P.U.L.S.E. DVD set I'll testify, I surely can~Read full review...
