its hard to believe some people will live their entire life without hearing this song
Yeah it a mad thought 😊😊
and so many before the 90s really.
Not my little boy: ruclips.net/user/shortsVvmL2vbMx8U
gotta feel sorry for them
The audience for this gig died in A.D. 79. 😀
Pink Floyd knew that you don't have to play all the notes, just the ones that matter.
45 years later, in 2016, David Gilmour, at age 70, returned to the same location in Pompeii to put on a spectacular live show, and with an audience this time.
Seen & heard Dave play all over the world 2016 "Pompeii" is the best ever playing. He has quoted that some place he plays better and I think this was his but I'm sure he would have like to have Rick there. Pompeii " In any tongue" ************
I was there the first night! Best gig of my life. Travelled from Ireland with my dad
Really!? That's awesome!
I love listening to Anderson Council! 😊
Their music may sound simple but it is immaculately perfect in every note, beat, lyric, melody and timing. They are true rock gods.
Couldn't agree more.
When I was at university there was a girl on my course who had had a copy of Meddle given to her for her birthday. I asked her what she thought of "Echoes" and she said she'd never played it because it was over 15 minutes long and she'd get bored with it. WHAT! I made her listen to it all in one sitting and she played it every day thereafter. I'd hear it as I passed her room. A convert no less.
45 years later.... I am still listening to Echoes..
@@madhurig9999 One could say the performance sent Echoes throughout the universe, both space and time.
It's not just music. This is an attempt to resonate in eternity, to leave a mark. To reach our ancestors, very distant
“The definition of genius is taking the complex and making it simple.”

All analog, baby!! I love that you appreciate the "natural sound" and like you said, nothing wrong with contemporary music using today's technology. But nothing will ever quite achieve this style of musicianship and pure emotional expression and energy captured on tape. Awesome video, keep up the great reactions!!
I recommend completing your Echoes journey in order, as follows: Part 2 at Pompeii, the original studio version from the Meddle Album, and finish with David Gilmour and Richard Wright live in Gdansk, Poland.
I00% agreed. In that order as well. Big thing with Floyd is experiencing things in order - especially within the album. It's all tied together - even albums.
Yes and the version in Poland was the last time it was ever done because Rick Wright passed away and David Gilmour would not do the song without him!!!❤
Yes, Agreed. The right way to Echoes. I love everything Floyd, though I am really a Waters guy in the end. Anyway, Echoes is the kind of song that would make a career for lesser bands, but Floyd did it again and again, song after song, album after album.
you forgot Nick´s version . He played Echoes too. With his "Saucers".
@@Bechlado I didn’t know that Richard Wright performed on Nick’s version. It was Wright’s song and wouldn’t seem like Echoes without Wright, but if Wright was there, then that would be a good one to watch.
I was lucky to see Pink Floyd perform this song during their Dark Side Of The Moon tour in 1973 in Pittsburgh. I feel I had the best seats in the house as well, I was 6 rows from the stage dead center, Right in front of David Gilmour. This was the most memorable concert I have attended.
Heck, even seeing it performed by Brit Floyd was an amazing experience!
Wow I envy you~!!!
Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii is one of the greatest acts of music ever produced, every song is an absolute masterpiece, add in the location and you reach epic level music
Well said mate 😊😊
Indeed
And here's a post made by Nick Mason and his band "Saucerful of Secrets" on July 24th, 2023:
_"This afternoon, the city of Pompei in Italy conferred the title of Honorary Citizen on Nick Mason. Nick is visiting the city as his __#SaucerfulOfSecrets__ are playing at the Teatro Grande in the ancient ruins, this evening, as part of __#TheEchoesTour__"_
And here's a review of that concert (Note that Nick Mason is the drummer for Pink Floyd). Nick's concert *did* have an audience, of course:
_"Veni, Vidi, Vinci! When the Romans built Pompeii 2,000yrs ago they had 21st century prog rock in mind. Sensational acoustics, great sight lines and an atmosphere fit for Caesar himself. If you couldn’t make it we were thinking of you, the great Pink Floyd family. - in Pompei, Napoli, Italy"_
Another Pink Floyd soundscape masterpiece in a Roman amphitheater built in 70 BC
For your edification: Dave Gilmour worked for a while as a model before he joined the Floyd.
Pink Floyd played this show to an audience of Roman ghosts because they thought it would be surreal. They were not wrong.
In his interview he States he was a driver for other groups in his van. Didn't hear anything about modelling. He attended Cambridge as well as Syd Barrett. They shared the same boarding house. I just started listening to the interviews although my first PF album was Saucerfull of Secrets. By far my favorite. PF song is Echoes.
A forehead model?
3 of these 4 guys performed 23 years later at the 1994 Pulse Concert (David Gilmour, Richard Wright, and Nick Mason).
@keyrat1753 - I saw them play this in September 1987 at JFK Stadium. They opened the show with this very song. It was unreal that night in the misty rain. The show was taped as well. You take care 🙂
Spot on man 😊😊
If you listen closely, you can hear the part of Echo where Andrew Loyd Weber lifted a whole section of this song for Phantom of the Opera.
To explain PF is not easy but....... The instruments sing and the vocals play music. And everything in between with each artist adding their own flair and fill here and there. It all comes to gather like magic.
Hi Millie,
Pompeii was devastated by the eruption of a volcano, which destroyed everything.
there they filmed the video of this masterpiece.
This version, live in Pompeii, was actually cut in half and resumes later on in the movie. You missed out on the entire second half. I recommend listening to the studio version on the album meddle, this version uninterrupted and the David Gilmour concert live in Gdansk Richard Wright. All three versions of Echoes are incredible.
David Gilmour-Remember that Night.
Magnificent and heartfelt performance for all the lost souls of Pompeii. 🎉❤
IMO, Nick Mason’s drumming here was one of the greatest drumming performances ever. He was basically the band leader on this.
I had the same face when I saw Pink Floyd back in 1987, performing this very song to open the concert at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia (RIP- the US home of Live Aid) when I was 17 years old with my friends. I never thought I would ever hear this song live, and I was amazed and shocked that night. Good times, good times. Nice review 🙂
I was there. Quite, quite memorable.
I was There and was 17 as well .. what a FN concert
I was brought up with Pink Floyd’s music amongst others and to this day their music is on a different plane to anything else!
It takes you on a journey to a place away from this world and every instrument sings and talk’s to you, especially David Gilmour’s guitar.
Watch Comfortably Numb live at Pulse and this tattoos what I am saying in your memory!!!
It is such a lovely thing that a young woman as yourself appreciates and loves and understands Pink Floyd, fantastic!!! 🙏
New room has a nice atmosphere
I love song. Saw this in about 1977 it took me thirty plus years but I finally got to stand in that amphitheater.. Google has Pompeii on Street view.
the best version and last time played do to Rick's passing. David Gilmour "Live at Gdansk" 25 minutes of epic sound. 3 minute ending as if Dave was saying goodbye to Rick.
The best version ?!?The studio version by Meddle!
@@65alef i guess you haven't seen Gdansk
@@jim5247 no darling...i know perfectly well that live .
I'm a big Pink Floyd's fan !!!
I'm so, so lucky to grow up with Pink Floyd, music for the soul.
~~ the actual performance was filmed in early October 1971 - almost a month before the Meddle album was released - the concert film was released in September 1972 - then a longer version was re-released in 1974 with the added footage of the band at EMI ( Abbey Road ) studios as they worked on the Dark Side of the Moon - released in March 1973 ..
great seeing you love this, i grew up with this and still listen to it...
Gods playing to the Gods!
There are no god's,just stardust 🌞
People say David Gilmore is an amazing guitar because he understands that the empty spaces in between the notes is what make music great. That’s why it’s so simple.
I used to go to sleep listening to this in high school
I wish videos with only part 1 didn't exist. It's such a pity when reactors completely miss the second part.
Anyway, I loved your reaction!
Pompei is a ghost town, destroyed by a volcano, hence the empty arena, they were playing for a ghost audience.
Gilmour went back, in 2016. That was the first live performace in front of a real crowd in that amphitheatre, in 2000+ years (since 79 BCE).
I saw this at a drive-in theatre in Charlotte in the '70s.Cool times. For their complex music listen to Ummagumma, which was unlike anything in the world at the time, and even now, frankly. When they played their Dark Side tour, I was touching the stage, because they had yet to become famous, and they still played in smallish venues. Never again. And they put an end to their musical explorations at the edge. Pulled it in, along with the big bucks.
Just for your information, Pink Floyd released this video as part of a movie release back in the early 70s and my best friend and I went to see it, probably at a midnight showing. It was totally epic.
They where playing to a full house there 😏 the amphitheatre was full..of the ghosts of the Pompeins..😊 I watched that 1971...I was 11..👍😊
Pink floyd ist alles andere als einfach. Was die Jungs spielen ist aller höchste Klasse. Zum Beispiel die e Gitarren Solos von gilmour oder die Texte welche roger geschrieben hat.
One of the greatest songs ever recorded! It is a ride from the sublime to gut wrenching rock! The louder the better!
This was probably the first album I heard of PF at my friend's house in the early 70s. We just sat there and chilled out.
In 2006 David Gilmour and Rick Wright performed "Echoes" Part 1 and 2 consecutively, at a concert in Gdansk Poland. It was an incredible performance and likely, the last time Pink Floyd members Gilmour and Wright, played and sang "Echoes" together.
Rick Wright, one of the founding members of Pink Floyd in 1964, died of cancer in 2008.
David Gilmour said at the time that he would never play "Echoes" again.
Below is a link to that performance,...

This may be a shorter version, but after the song slows down and stops, it picks up again the band sings and plays for several minutes more . Just because a song slows down, it does not mean it is over
You may want to hear the rest of it.
Us old Pink Floyd folks will always turn you on to the good stuff.
That's half the song. Gotta finish it now. There should be a part 2 from the sane film. I know I've seen the whole performance in one video before, as well as the video that's split into 2 parts
I listened to this in 1972 as a very raw Uni Student with hair like these guys!!
Saw them live in the US about 6 months after this and equally as good. They were already playing what would be Darkside of the Moon under the working title Eclipse. Highly recommend you watch the entire film Live at Pompeii.
it "s live in pompei in no public... in masterpiece
1972...I was in middle school you silly girl - LOL But...my oldest brother, not yet headed to Vietnam, was a rock stud. So I was raised on this music (Joplin, Hendrix, The Stones, Led Zeppelin and so on). I guess in hindsight, I was blessed!!). My brother was lucky, he came home from that nightmare. He is still a rock & roll stud!
Also I agree with you that this is one of the trippiest of Pink Floyd Songs. I used to drop a few tabs of LSD and listen to this song as I started peaking. It would absolutely send me on a journey.
Oh it wasn't just a song, it was a complete show while they were working on the album "Dark Side Of The Moon".
Pink Floyd Always the best band in the world
Cud not help thinking, “she say it’s so simple” yes it might be, but also so complex, Pink Floyd manages to put simple everyday sounds in there music, still make it work 110% really enjoy their music and some of it are over 50 years old, still ahead of the time today, simple yet still masterful
This was 1972.
Years before music video’s were even thought of.
Pink Floyd were there to FILM a movie to promote their new album “Meddle” which was then to be shown in cinema’s .
They liked the acoustics in the amphitheater at Pompeii so much they decided to play live there and record it for their movie “Pink Floyd Live At Pompeii”
That’s why it’s only them, the crew and equipment. There was never any plan to have an audience.
I was 14 at the time, and went to see the film one Sunday evening with my best mate Tony at the cinema when it was released. I was blown away !
I am 64 now and have the DVD of the film and watch it regularly. The entire “meddle” album is amazing.
This was echoes pt 1 . There is also echoes pt 2
Probably the best live recording of all time.
This was done for a film by a German Director. They were in the middle of a world tour and flew in from Japan especially to record this.
It's actually ridiculous how good this recording is, for the time. I can't help but compare it to Yessongs, which was an incredible performance, but a shit recording. Pink Floyd wasn't really HUGE yet, so we're very lucky this was done so well.
Two fun facts:
1. Eric Clapton was once asked how it feels to be the best guitar player in the world. His answer was "I don't know. You have to ask David Gilmour".
2. David Gilmour was once "critisised" for not being able to play a really fast guitar. His answer was "I discovered that myself very soon. So I decided to become the best in playing a slow guitar".
They did to a concert with an audience mythologically speaking. They were performing for the history and mythos of pompeii. Its really hard to explain but it really clear to me that they were performing for mythos
In short, they were symbolically performing for the residence of past pompeii and its mythos
Remember seeing this at a midnight showing in a movie theater back in the early 70's.....incredible.......David Gilmour is the best........every note has a "place"
Please try and enjoy also "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" from Pompeji.
I saw Pete Florida 1979 in Atlanta Georgia and when they played "echoes" it was ohmygod the best light show I have ever witnessed. Everyone was high but everyone was quiet doing that show people had tears in their eyes..
Second time that I'm looking at what you're offering us. I shall keep following you on that trip. Best regards from "la Ville de Québec" ( Quebec city) 😀😃🙂🙃😉
The reason for no audience is Pompeii is off limits for the most part of the general public. A historical place capturing a moment in time.
To answer some of your questions....They were playing just for the love of the music. The ruins at Ponpeii had almost perfect acoustics off the mountains and the ruins themselves. They were not only musicians but artists in their craft. Many (including me) believe this song in particular and the album it was off of, Meddle, was Pink Floyds' "coming of age" as it were. They became a mega band.
Love to watch you react Millie!Actually Echoes -Pompeii was considered a film.They played at that filming eight songs besides Echoes part 1and 2 I recommend listen to the whole concert.
The song is called Echoes. This is only part 1. Meaning part 2 of the song, the second half of it, is on another video. Up to you if you want to hear the entire song or only half. I know which you’ll choose.
Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D.
Awsome reaction to an Awsome song and band. I absolutely Love your new background. I originally got this on VHS. Amazing concert. 😀😃😄😁
3:35
The whole point of this film with no audience was that it was released as a feature film in the cinemas so that anyone with the price of a cinema ticket could see a Pink Floyd concert.
Now you need to watch part 2 of the video.
The notes are simple, but the feelings playing then no one will ever make it the same like Gilmour
The director forgot 4 guys in the band then! Doesn't show Roger until about 10 minutes in, and only shows Richard when singing. Just an observation, such a great performance!
I strongly suspect that was Waters' choice. Otherwise it would be inexplicable.
@@llanitedave hard to say with Roger
If I remember correctly -- this was a sound check along with a chance to do an early music video on film.
I used to have a girlfriend nearly 25 minutes by car from my house. I always use to put Echoes on (Meddle, not this one) between motorway junctions. The timing was just perfect.
You should definitely watch the song "Careful With
That Axe Eugene" from the same exact concert!!!
Roger Waters gives the most epic SCREAM your ever going to hear at the same time a volcano explodes in your face!!!!! Actually, you should just get the DVD for this concert/documentary because every song is epic except maybe the one with the dog singing the blues??
I guess that one's epic as well???!!
Careful With That Axe Eugene!!!!! Most definitely!!
"Strangers passing in the street
By chance, two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can?"
Part 2 concludes the trip! Looking forward to seeing you finish this epic.
Imagine this was 52 years ago . They played this live and recorded the actual sound in the amphi theater and the sound is so clear and perfect !
The first time I saw that film, it was presented in a French Canadian cultural program on the State TV. It was in 1972 and I was 15. A year later, I saw my first real rock show, Pink Floyd Dark Side of te Moon. I saw hundreds of shows and it's still in my top 5.
Spot on reaction comments; it’s great to see that your generation can still appreciate great music from my era. You may know that Meddle was followed by another little album that had a modicum of success ;) The live version of Dark Side of the Moon, performed at the Empire Pool, Wembley, London in 1974 has been released recently. I grew up on these guys and was lucky enough to be at this concert. Difficult to pick a specific track, but start with Time and go on from there. You MUST also check out Comfortably Numb (possibly most fan’s favourite), preferably from the Pulse concert of 1995.
Love to see all us oldies watching the kids discovering what we lived and breathed (but mostly smoked) at the time.
"Is that like, near a volcano?"
You could say that.
This is the best band ever and ever! They were way beyond any band!
Dear Millie, we would love to recommend the following songs:
The Cure - The Forest
Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms
Heart - "Barracuda" (1977)
Siouxsie and the Banshees - Spellbound
Kansas - Dust in the Wind
3D holophonics was invented by them!
The saying in my family goes, when I was a baby, I would only sleep to dark side of the moon. I’m not joking.
You only listed to part 1 of Echoes. Check out part 2 for the complete experience.
One could say the performance sent Echoes throughout the universe and we're "just" hearing the residual ripple effect of space sound.
It would have been an absolute delight to be able to hear it live.
Masterpiece
MIllie
Remember that last live event held at this ancient coliseum was in 79AD before Pink Floyd did it 1972, almost 2 thousand years. In 79AD, Mount Vesuvius had major eruption near Pompeii. Pompeii and its nearest city, Herculaneum had population of 20,000 when eruption occurred in Oct of 79AD. There are 1,5000 remains found in the area with some frozen in volcanic ash. Actual count of casualties remains unknown. You know that Italian authorities monitored PF's actions as they not to disturb the relics there. Then 45 years later, in 2016, David Gilmour returned with his solo band to perform with a live audience. Video clips of this famous concert are on here, RUclips.
Band epic pink Floyd🇬🇧
Simply Complex nice analogy
They probably did it there because of the sound at that particular place. Bands did that a lot back then.
Every single fucking time hearing echoes is a unique trip❤often like a healing session 😁
I loved in Pompei 1972 I remember
Many consider the Ghosts of Pompeii to have been the audience. Peace/JT
Nobody is there cause everybody in the city was killed by the volcano Mt. Vesuvious in 79 a.d.. The concert is for thier spirits. 😢
Pink Floyd's music was heavily influenced by the blues genre, so it comes as no surprise that the band's cofounder Syd Barrett named the group after two of his favorite blues artists, Pink Anderson and Floyd Council.
The best way to listen to the entire song is to search for "Pink Floyd Echoes and 2001: A Space Odessey". Both Kubrick and the band says there was no confab between them, but ... the sync between the scenes in the movie and the song?? A bit hard to believe.
Edit: Of course the sound feels natural. Alan Parsons, the engineer for "Dark Side of the Moon", said that a mix in those days were a perfomance in it's own rights. The band and Parsons were stationed at boards and sync was maintained by hand signals turning on tape reels.
This song is literally my life and my childhood
Some say you pause too much. I on the other hand appreciate you taking time to express your thoughts while they’re still in your head.
I love your voice.
Love your channel.
Pink Floyd just doesn’t fail.
Love you Millie.
Non ! On ne coupe pas un morceau de musique !! Les commentaires se font à la fin...
Il faut respecter les artistes et l'œuvre.
