![Pink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon (50th Anniversary) [2023 Remaster] {Full Album}](/img/1.gif)
You will note that what gives the Gilmore solo its gravitas, and majesty, along with that intense gut-level emotion is the steady, almost slow pacing, none of the note sequences are rushed or sped up, this is like a majestic vessel sailing over the horizon, speed is completely unimportant, David is a master of articulate statements perfectly placed in the flow of the music: I had to get that out, thank you.
Very well said- Gilmore has the ability to put the Soul into Heavy Progressive Rock. He has to be in the top 10 of any guitar player list. And Tim's video's are always amazing in their lessons and historical content :)
It soars
~ It's Gilmour, not "Gilmore." Jeeze, it's right in front of you.
Yeah David Gilmore is a great jazz guitarist ! Saw him with Reggie Washington : killer gig.
Right on!
Let's face it guys, we've all got our own personal favourites, but almost everything Mr Gilmour does is bloody brilliant!
Here Here !
Echoes
Except that whole breaking up Pink Floyd.
What's that song? Right, right! You're bloody well right! Gilmore was intramental just as much if not more than Roger Waters. He never left the band while little baby Roger Waters was always unhappy and didn't have the heart, enough love and devotion to work through problems and stick around to keep doing what it was all about!
@@whyis45stillaliveyou sirr are NOT a true Pink Floyd fan. Because anyone who is will struggle to choose a favorite song because there were soooop many that were masterpieces.
He's a masterful musician, but when he plays his most iconic solos, it's like his spirit takes over, and guides his hands. Pure feeling. It moves the soul.
Gilmore is an absolute master. His sense of melody and timing are unmatched.
~ Gilmour, not "Gilmore."
Jesus, Jerry, are you really so “little-man-syndrome” that you just have to puff out your chest on every misspelled comment to prove your superiority in some way?! The guy wrote “Gilmore” in the comment section of a video about David Gilmour. It’s not exactly rocket surgery to know who he’s talking about, now is it?
I prefer Gilmour.
For real. I think his technical skills and tastefully placed pieces really shined on Animals especially. There really wasn’t a guitar player like him in that era nor is there today.
It is Gilmour!
I love how Gilmour does the call and response. That gap between phrases is like a pause in a conversation where both people are carefully listening to one another ... never talking over each other.
I learned the solo for Another Brick pt II from a Guitar magazine lesson, and whoever wrote it talked about the space in the solo. How you could see a trumpet player composing it, stopping for breath a after each phrase. That always stuck with me.
@@dylanadams1455 Phrasing and tone have always been (for me) the hallmarks of Gilmour's playing, and his greatness.
Lol I get asked often ..aren’t you sick of listening to Floyd or Gilmore. I just turn it up .. 👊🏻👌🏻🔥🔥
Gilmour is a master! His note selection and his feel are insane. No flash, just all the good stuff right from the soul.
Dave is a living legend. His solos are timeless. Really expanded my mind when I discovered him.
Their's David Gilmour and then those that wish they were Gilmour ! Yeah I'm bias.
@@Henry.58 10% of his money would be enough for me...
Good God man.. You're playing a lesson and it's giving me goose bumps and chills. You amaze me...
Tim,I didn’t think anyone could demystify this solo. When Floyd played Nashville at Vanderbilt stadium,you could hear this solo about 2 miles away fading in and out with the wind! Additionally, David has a bit of mythology surrounding him. I’ve heard some stories! In this solo, I love how he takes his time using space to build a sonic masterpiece. He made some history for himself with this one. Splendid work Sir! Thanks
I was there 😎
I love it. But my favourite of Gilmour's has always been the "Time" solo. That's what first tipped me off to how incredible this man is.
Yup “Time” has been my all time favorite since I was a teenager. Hits a lot harder now that I’m in my 40s.
I have to agree with you.. that solo is at least on par to Numb. It's amazing
Love the "Time" solo, but for me number 1 will always be solo from "high hopes", makes me cry every time i listen to...
@@user-wn7oe8ey3c There are certainly a lot to choose from. :)
Time is my favorite as well. So much soul in so few bars.
Gilmour feels every note to the fullest. Beautifully brilliant expression.
I spoke with Alan Parains about this solo when it was recorded. He said they knew immediately thst they were making a part of history. He said he remembered how expensive the notes were, and how wisely they were spent. Imagine being there for the inception of this piece of work.
Who is Alan Parains?
@@danobrien3695 miss type.
"Alan Parsins" He is one of the best sound engineers in history. He still has his hand on the pulse all these years later. Man is truly a musical genius.
Parsons
@@geoffb9999 Flawless Victory
@@danobrien3695stop it ! seriously ? u jest surely
I love to watch Tim play guitar, especially the smile he gets when the great stuff is going down.
The thing I've noticed about Comfortably Numb is the first solo is uplifting and happy, like childhood, and the second final solo is so desperately haunting, like the reckoning of getting old. It really ties into the entire theme of the song. It doesn't hurt the solos to be surrounded by one of the greatest songs of all time.
Those solos are one of the reasons it's the greatest songs of all time.
Wow. What a true and fitting analogy. I've always thought the same thing about that solo, just never put it into words...
I get this exact same feeling from Page's Ten Years Gone
Perfect analogies for both solos!
You’re playing is superb
Love this guitar solo from Gilmore. Classic.
Few players can tap into those emotions the way David Gilmour does. My favorite tones of his have always been Animals, so sharp and powerful. He played a Tele on Dogs and Sheep. I also love how he can do really creative clean sounds, his rhythm parts are often overlooked imo.
Hi just found your channel. Wow where have I been. Comfortably Numb is my soul song. Even the title was me 10 years ok when I was critically ill. So much medication comfortably numb. Unfortunately my health took my guitar ability with it, with the brain tumours and strokes. I have recently managed to listen to the song without a breakdown. I just can play for toffee. Muscle memory gone, years of playing gone, but memories of playing still exists. I have finally plucked up the courage to relearn guitar. You my friend are my new teacher. Your reproduction of the solo is unbelievable on point. Far better than even when I could play. This song is my soul, it’s my heart beat. It’s Gilmour at his finest. It has passion, flare, excitement and drama. You my friend played that like the man himself with all the emotion that makes this song arguably one of the best ever solos ever period. Thank you for the content and lesson and the juicy tip bits. Tim thank you, and I hope my journey leads me to obtain a small fraction of your talent and majestic playing, I will be again a happy man. 🤞🤘🏻👍🏻
Keep going my man 👍
He's not bad is he 🤔
Been a music lover for over 60 years now and Gilmour's solo is still the only one that can move me. And I've probably heard a thousand times. The timing is majestic. The transitions even better. Pure genius.
Have you heard Prince's solo in the While my Guitar Gently Weeps tribute? It's a pretty emotional performance. Video is here on the tube.
I still cry a little at the sheer emotional content in this solo, partly out of frustration at not being able to reproduce it better, myself
That’s kinda weird to me. You’re a huge music fan and yet only Gilmour’s solo moves you?
It doesn’t sound like you’re a huge music fan so much as you are a Gilmour fan?
There have been thousands upon thousands of guitar solos which are excellent and worthy of equality at the very least.
Gilmour’s work is great. There are so so many others who are also unbelievable and excellent.
Yes I’m with you ..
I’m very very picky but even I can list about 20 guitar solos that move me ..
I would love to see a concert with Tim, with a 20 meter high screen showing only Tim's smile when he relishes in each single note he plays.
Such an aura of positivity - each second of your life with THIS is a celebration. Cherish every moment.
It is without a doubt the greatest solo in rock history. There is no argument about it.
No argument 😉
Absolutely amazing.
What this man does not know about playing the guitar is not worth knowing. So amazingly informative as well as playing a piece so damned well it could have been the original.
Thank you so very much for this fascinating guitar demonstration and also the information you gave us about guitars, wonderful!
never get tired of seeing/hearing you play, my friend. you always come on looking like you couldn't be happier, just playing guitar.
Couldn't agree more! I have listened to this solo hundreds of times and it literally raises the hairs on my head EVERY time. What other music (or anything really) can you say that about? Actually, now that I've read the commen by Sean Baines, the Time solo has a very similar effect on me. Thanks Tim, you rule!
This solo and listen to Pavarotti singing nessun dorma . I hate opera but it always does the same thing
Tim is one hell of a player !! …. And plays all the cool stuff and stuff of his own ! …. Great inspiration
Tim Pierce: One of the more ethical and honest guitar mavens on TubeYou.
And a freakin' good guitar player in his own right!!
Killer video, Tim. Very thorough breakdown. Enough can't be said about DG or this song. Absolutely one of the (IMO) most beautiful guitar performances ever caught on record. Thanks again 🤘
Tim! I can only play a dozen chords but love watching your videos. Thank you so much for making them! Keep doing what you do!
This is a fun and fabulous tim pierce session full of reverence for david gilmour!! Thank you!
Tim you absolutely are my favorite guitar player, teacher and educational musician by far. Thanks so much for this piece.
I love the first solo.. but the second is cosmic brilliance.. I’m 71 & been playing for 50 odd years & I’m in tears listening to him play.. Dave is my favourite guitarist & the second solo is the best I’ve ever heard.
Some of the most compelling parts are the gaps or silences between which bring on an anxious feeling of anticipation, promoting emotional intensity, timing of when to play a note AND when to leave one out is everything, what a great summary and your playing is awesome 👌 😮
Tim. Love your channel. This is without a doubt the best most melodic and moving guitar solo of all time. I have had the opportunity to see and hear David and Pink Floyd in person. Mind changing experience.
That solo is a perfect example of what can happen when you take the time to love every note and let every note have its say. It's all about being in no rush.
What a great lesson and commentary. Well done, Tim, very well done! Thank you.
So many try to emulate DG's tone and feel, but Tim is one of very, very few who actually succeed.
For me, my favourite solo is 'High Hopes' from 'Bell'.
As for Tim's comments about pauses, playing slowly and breaking solos into 'broken phrases' are all equally applicable to the playing of Peter Green in his early days.
1) All Along the Watchtower 2) Time 3) Ten Years Gone
Great playing Tim, as always! And very informative video. Thank you!
Tim, I have to say - you are an amazing player. We all work hard to be as good as we can, but some of us have the innate ability to be musical, whether playing one note per bar, or 80. You, sir, are one of those, that make beautiful music seem easy. Thankyou. Your playing always gives me pleasure.
excellent work Tim. Thanks for the content!
The chord structure is incredibly important, as it gives single notes space to develop and resolve. Never forget to to properly compose the music that you intend on soloing over.
Live at Gdansk, David's solo on Comfortably Numb, extended version, THE BEST EVER!
My road band did this song for years. Gilmour is probably my biggest influence, and i tried hard to do him justice.
It is hard to do David's solos justice. I apologize to him when I butcher some of his stuff and thank him every time I listen to anything he plays.
Hi Tim. I'm almost 70 years young. My guitar playing ihas been stuck in the 70's as well. I would like you to know that I feel that you are one of nicest guitar players that I've watched/heard in my life. You get a great sound out of anything that you play. Eric Clapton is the only player that gets that tone no matter what he plays. So, I watch all of your videos. There's no sense in me paying for your classes. I've settled for what I can do but I truly wanted to tell you how good a guitarist Ithat you are and to thank you again for all the videos that you bmake.
Your knowledge is unbelievable....your playing is totally awesome.God bless you ❤❤❤
I love Gilmour solos and tone... it's just magical. Listening to you play that was so nice. Blasted it out on my studio monitors. I have seen so many pieces of musical history hanging fancy free in a hard rock restaurant. It's tragic.
I really like your videos - your insights and knowledge and the way that you share them are very refreshing. TY!
You are amazing. Everything is so smooth.
No one can replicate David’s solo’s. He plays them different every time…
If you ever get to hear Dave Kilminster play live with Roger Waters he does a very loyal job without deviating. I first saw Roger back when he did a tour with Doyle Bramhall and at the time I didn’t like it but look back and appreciate it a lot more. But Kilminster kills it in a show for those of us who haven’t been fortunate to hear Gilmour live. Really regret not pushing the drive in 06 or so when he did a couple shows in US
@@nikdrown It’s so good to hear from you. I hope you’re doing well?… Give my regards to those in your care👍🏻
Really now
Hmm
I saw the wall tour and David played 90% of the solos note for note ..
Later on , many years later he started improvising some and playing solos a little bit differently though
@@mrmatthew2443 So 10% was different …you can’t make this shit up folks…😂
I absolutely love this solo too, his style is very distinctively him. I've always liked the hauntingly beautiful solo on time as my personal fav. It was was the lead I wanted to mimic in tone and feel more than any other. His mastery of using time and compression based pedals along with his phrasing and dramatic timing is what makes him so unique imho
Great to see the Hiwatt in use. I have 2 and people are always astounded when they hear these things.....
Without a doubt, the solos on this song are my favorites, from the very first moment I heard the song. That has endured to this day. A masterpiece!
To me, this is the best solo on the best album by the best guitarist in the best band that's ever existed. There's just nothing else that's even close to it.
There's plenty of stuff that's close to it. You're just not open minded enough.
This song is the mastery that is Gilmore! And Tim you bring it all back home! the song is pretty simple but it’s the tone and feeling that’s incredible he gets kind of a glassy metallic sound just that’s incredible for it’s time. Thx for for this one tim great episode!
watching and listening to your playing is always a great joy.
If you switch out the tone pot nearest the jack for a push/pull pot with the switch in the pot connecting the bridge pickup permanently on, position 4 of the 5 way switch will give all 3 pickups together and position 5 (normally neck only) will be neck + bridge. A cool mod because it's invisible and with the knob down it's a regular Strat.
I ended up doing a black strat parts from a ‘97 American std, right down to the .022 drop cap, added the switch, but I also modded so the tone pot could control the bridge and middle, and the second for neck. I have the SSL-5 pup for bridge though, which Seymour Duncan has said is basically the modded ssl1 gilmour used. They’ve since released SSL1 DG models, but I’ve noticed no difference from the ssl5. CS for middle pup and fat 50s neck. Fullerton plant 57 RI neck, shortened trem, and I even stained and painted the knobs to age them lol
Nice video Tim. The solos from Dogs are the pinnacle of Rock guitar for me. The aggression and emotion he wrings out of the 2 fuzz solos always leave me astounded and completely drained...... Amazing stuff.
Yup. "Dogs" solos, by far. They're visceral.
Dogs definitely, my all time favourite Floyd tune
well said - The guitar work on the entire album, rhythmically and leads, is incredible. The solos, the outro to sheep, intro to dogs, the bridge in pigs - - everythinggggggg. Comfortably numb doesn't even compare.
Dogs is Gilmour at his greatest. Phenomenal.
Animals is my favorite and most of all Dogs!
Gilmour played with patience and made sure you could sing the lines. Amazing.
New to your channel as someone who is about 9 months into this journey, i just want you to know this is the most informing video i have herd on gear. Your amazing on the guitar as well
Time is my favorite as well. His work on Animals is underrated to some degree I think. He may not fall in the outright virtuoso class, but he IS THE Virtuoso of Fills in my opinion. Funny I was working on Have a Cigar when this popped up. Always great stuff Tim, thanks!
When I say him play this in LA during the wall tour I broke down crying. It's freakin' magic.
Similar for me when I saw him at the Royal Albert Hall as he struck up the opening refrain for Shine On... It was akin to a spiritual experience. The power of music to touch us in ways we can't explain.
This solo is so melodic it can be sung, I think that is what many like about it.
Amazing playing. Can’t wait to share with my little musician! Thanks
-- _Such a pleasure to listen. Thank you _*_Tim Pierce!_*
I always preferred the second solo, to be honest. I tend towards minor sounds I guess, and I guess they're both epic, one major, one minor, but if you're playing that outro solo it's so easy to get lost and absorbed in it. Majestic AF!!!
I've always been jealous of the chord progression under that second solo. Instantly epic. 😄
That was amazing, great playing and lots of techy detail, we love it!
Thank you. Boy does that song bring back memories.
Comfortably numb has always been One of the Best songs for me. The song touches your soul.
Just another example of how speed is not greatness. The way people make you feel is greatness and Gilmore is always been my most favorite guitarist of all time
I play bass.
Every note with a Gilmour tone, for me, is a solo. 🙏
You nailed the tone and the notes there, dear Tim! 😉
Personally, I liked the red strat with EMG’s he used in the late ‘80’s the most.
Great playing & tone there, Tim. Love to have it for a ringtone on my iPhone, for my alarm in the morning, so I can wake up with a smile... 😄
I love Xotic too! Been using their Bass RC Booster as an always on for almost twenty years. I’ve got six or seven of them (V1 & V2), but I’ve been using my first one still: they just won’t break, 🤣.
...and once again Tim, you are spot on with your insights. Your enthusiasm is infectious as well.
Hey I really appreciate it, I really enjoyed doing this one :)
So excited to hear a shoutout for Xotic. I have tried several of their Tele models and they are exquisite. Definitely a bucket list guitar purchase.
Thanks Tim for all that you share with us. DG and Pink Floyd have an amazing history. DG solos seem to speak in an amazing different way. Love DG and seem to never get to produce his great feel and timing. Great Job. Keep the videos coming.
What God wants has one of my favorite songs no one has heard. Becks licks on it are among my favorites he ever did, the rhythm, it just rocks all three parts. that is so crazy you were in it. Good job btw, I just got a letter from snowy white actually. So glad I got a hold of him!
I saw them live when they did they’re opening US tour of Dark Side in Madison Wis. I was 17, they performed in Quad Stereo. Unbelievable! Been a Gilmore fan before 73 and ever since. Living legend and one of the greatest!
someone told me you had a youtube channel so here i am and you have not disappointed!! thank you for sharing this is the first video of yours i've seen... i will watch the past ones and what ever comes next :)
Gilmour and those two solos are the reason I picked up a guitar. Love what you did with it too. 🤘🏻
There’s a concert where Tim Renwick plays parts along with Gilmour and it’s just an amazing combo of styles.
I love seeing the look of sheer joy on Tim's place when he plays.
His solo on the song Coming Back to Life is phenomenal. One of the best.
✌️👍.
The solo from comfortably numb is the best solo of all time. I believed that when I first heard it and only years later hearing experts seem to agree makes it so. 😀
Wonderful lesson thanks Tim
Great video and one of my favorite solos for sure and I never get tired of playing it.
Great job Tim. A quick nod to the keys strings downward arpeggios, and slight brass resonant comps in the background of this solo - they counter the sustained guitar notes, and add to the feeling of ‘flying’ - if you listen closely on the studio recording. Subtle but important nuance. Cheers
So happy to see Charlie Chandler get a mention! He’s been an absolute legend and I’m so grateful for all his skills and awesome staff he has onboard.
Charlie does my stuff. He’s a legend. Props to Charlie.
My husband takes his guitars there. I wait in the White Hart for lunch. He is so happy with his guitars after they have been to Charlie’s.
Thank you for another great video, Tim! You are the most knowledgeable and experienced great player on RUclips!
Brilliantly done.. spot on..
The outro solo tone on record is so mysterious. I haven’t heard anyone get close. It’s magic.
Always a pleasure to hear & watch your videos Tim! I'm like....a....just soaking all the knowledge in! The stories....To many more videos to come! Cheers from Slovenia
this song and the solos.. they are evocative ...mystical.. organically arising. impossibly slow..ethereal .. brilliant. it makes you forget all about technique and shredding. it just is
it's on my top 5 list and has been for 30 years.... emotion filled / phrasing amazing. Great playing and story
My favorite Gilmour solo is from "Shine On You Crazy Diamond".
Yes, I agree that is such a magnificent piece of music, it is seldom mentioned by the music pundits, but yep 100%
I've played this solo a million times. And Money and Time. Dave Gilmour and Peter Frampton were my earliest influences. Its interesting in todays shreddy world that people have to learn how to slow it down and put some feel into it. I can't shred for shit now but i can pull this stuff out all day. Hooray for me !!
Nice work and rendition, and thanks for the interesting info and lesson!
It's definitely my favourite solo - ever. Nicely played :)
One of the greatest, I will agree. Frank Zappa has some amazing solos & "Watermelon In Easter Hay" is a complete guitar filled gem.
There’s a great video of Frank’s son, Dweezil, performing it live in his dad’s honor.
My friend got the bridge pins to. John Lennon s guitar same way
Check out “Yo’ Moma” too.
Thanks much for this trip down memory lane ! I am always amazed that every piece of outstanding music in the last 100 years seems to be from my teenage years through my 30's .... Youngns always shocked if I get them to listen to my music & they then agree ..... Nothing present era , comes close ! Rock On ! Nick , NavyBlueSmoke , LST-1195
You're amazing! Thanks for doing this.
Really love this video, Tim. David is, to me, one of the best at his phrasing during a solo.
I’m personally of the opinion that he was a frustrated saxophonist; all of his solos would be brilliant on a sax as well.
Cheers!
and guess what ? David's now got a sax !
Interesting observation. I wonder what 'Bird' could do with it - maybe? Nah...
Tim is soooo Smooth!
