It's in an ancient Roman amphitheater in Pompeii which is in southern Italy where the volcano Vesuvius (which is still active but in a state of "repose") destroyed the city back in 79 A.D. It was a whole performance with other songs as well. David was 25 here in 1971, and he played there again in 2016 when he was 70. Echoes was described as a musical conversation between David and Rick. When Rick passed in 2008, David would not play the song again.
Great infos, about 30km in the south of Naples/Napoli. As teacher I visited the ancient excavated city.
But as fourteen years old greenhorn I was so positiv confused about this unusual innovative sound (with synthi) and all 4 members passionate and somehow involved in equal parts. The similar vocal was later used by Dark Side Of The Moon.
At the same time I began the hear in the evening: Pink Floyd; Emerson, Lake & Palmer (similar synthi), 5-member.Genesis and Yes; otherwise daytime even Led Zeppelin/Deep Purple or Stevie Wonder/Elton John. All the best to You!!!!
@@ursgeiser6570 And to you! Thanks!
Hundreds OF PEOPLE LOST there Lives WHEN Mt Visuvious ERUPTED TRYING TO ESCAPE The city AND NOW THEY'VE found SOME Bodies COVERED BY ASH BY THE ERUPTION
I've got the DVD of this event, well worth getting. 😎🎵🎶🎵🦘
I toured Pompeii a few days before Dave Gilmore's 2016 performance. Will always regret being a few days too early to see the show.
I still don’t understand how four guys could create so many different huge soundscapes that never sounded the same but you could always tell it’s pink floyd, they really did have a sound all of their own. Just geniuses at work.
the ghosts of Pompeii must have been happy to have a concert after almost 2000 years . 😎👍
Underrated comment!
I love watching you and the younger generations reactions to Pink Floyd. My kids grew up listening to Pink Floyd because I played it constantly. I have seen Pink Floyd in 1987 (David Gilmour) Tonight I will be going to see Roger Waters Pink Floyd concert in Austin Texas with my daughter. I am 61 years old and my Daughter is 40.
Mate you must have set a new record for the most use of the term "pink floyd " in one comment lol
Hope you 2 enjoyed the gig
love it
Cool. I took my 34 year old daughter to see Bob Dylan at the Beacon in NYC about 2 months before the pandemic hit.
It makes me so happy to see young generations react to this song. I was your age when this was out in the theaters in the early 70s. I am so happy to know this will live on and be appreciated!
🤘
One of my favourite band performances ever. The setting is stunning. The music is transcendent. A perfectly distilled essence of Pink Floyd on display.
Pompeii was a city of 11,000 people who were buried alive under 15 feet of volcanic ash almost 2000 years ago. The entire 600 year old city and all of it's inhabitants were frozen in time, until they were excavated in more recent years. Haunting, tragic, and beautiful all at the same time.
2000 years ago, but the city is 600 years old, uh what?
@@Nightwing690 Pompeii was buried in 79AD. The area was first settled in the 8th century BC.
What makes you say the city is 600 years old?
@@justinatest9456 Ugh...unless we missed something - you said it errr...yourself?! 🤔🤨
@@Summon256 Lol I didn't pick up on that. The city 'was' 600 years old, when it was buried in ash, 1921 years ago.
Was, as opposed to is.
@Nightwing690 Pompeii was buried in 79 A.D. It was founded sometime in the seventh century B.C. Do the math.
Such an amazing experimental band. All of them were wizards with their instruments. Rest in Peace Richard Wright.
Thanks for reviewing this. This has to be one of the most amazing performances, especially David Gilmore’s solo. The whole video production , I think is awesome. Probably the greatest music video ever.
Being a teenager and in my early 20s in the 1970s, this is the Pink Floyd we, (me and my friends), all knew at the time, these 4 guys.
David Gilmour, guitar,.. Roger Waters, bass,.. Rick Wright, keyboards,.. and Nick Mason, drums
From 1968 to 1985, these four guys made up Pink Floyd, that's the slice of time that Pink Floyd became a superstar Rock Band,... selling-out all over the world,.... everywhere they performed,... and the most successful Progressive Rock Band in history!.
This was the Pink Floyd that me and my friends knew and saw live in concert, TWICE in the 70s!
An amazing performance for sure one of my all-time favorites performed in the ruins of Pompeii amphitheater not quite destroyed destroyed in 70 A.D. from one of the worlds super volcanoes Vesuvius. has all the bubbling cauldrons just like the yellow stone another massive super volcano. The only thing that irritates me about this live video they made back in the day is the cameraman mostly ignored Richard Wright and his fantastic work on keyboards
The camera work is pants through most of it.
Gilmour returned to this same amphitheater in 2016. You should really check out some of the songs from that performance. Somehow I think his guitar work is even better now that he's in his 70s. He doesn't perform Echoes since Richard Wright passed away a few years ago, but it's still an epic show. I believe the only rock concert (with an audience) to ever be held there, apart from the ghosts were were in attendance at this performance. The upper ring of the amphitheater is ringed with cauldrons of flames, it is just an amazing atmosphere.
Pompeii is truly a fascinating place most notable for the bodies found there buried in the ash. That's why this performance is typically thought of as a concert for the dead.
The Roman Coliseum. It has been restored these days but Floyd played there when it was in ruins in 1970. These old amphitheaters had AMAZING sound reverb. That's why they played there. About 40% of this DVD was created afterwards and NOT at Pompeii as some of the reels were lost by the director. Those cuts are obvious. STILL, one of the greatest LIVE DVD's ever created. Pink Floyd Lives on!!!
It would be cool if you could find the other songs from this performance (Careful With That Axe Eugene, A Saucerful Of Secrets, One Of These Days, Mademoiselle Nobs and Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun) and react to them as well. This is a great film and I watched it countless times when I was your age or younger.
Great performance in 1972. 3 of the 4 band members at Pompeii (Wright, Mason, and Gilmour) all participated in the Pulse Concert 22 years later in 1994.
I traveled there with my wife in 1996 while we were staying in Capri. This (along with Ephesus in Turkey) was the greatest excavation site I've been to see. I had already watched this movie many times, so I did it with The Floyd in mind. INCREDIBLE!
It was entertaining to watch your reaction to this Pink Floyd gem. Once you stop learning you start dying, so: amphitheater, not cathedral, and mud pot, not sulfur. To see mud pots and many other magnificent natural wonders, visit Yellowstone National Park, you will never forget what you see there.
You'll love this! Gilmore looks so cool. Nick Mason is maniacal.
Pompeii was destroyed by a volcano, btw. People "frozen" in place in ashen shrouds.
Set the Controls For the Heart of the Sun is also v good
...it's a Colosseum-type structure
I always love seeing Nick during this time. In later years, he was always (and still is) dressed like a professor, with a starched shirt, short hair, etc. Still great at what he does, but he was a beast on the drums back in the early 70s. So much energy.
It IS a movie… actually a rockumentary, the two parts of this bookend the rest of it, definitely a good watch. Pink Floyd live at Pompei (1972)
The original VHS version didn't have the studio part. It was the first tape I ever rented.
I just happen to LOVE "Echoes". Yet, I love the most the live version from David Gilmour's "Live in Gdansk" DVD. Maybe because it's literally the last performance of that song EVER. A few months later, Rick passed away, and David declared he'd never play that song again... And it's a GREAT performance of that song. You don't even perceive the length of it, it just mesmerises you and at the end you kinda "wake up" and think to yourself "is it done already?". 🙂
I'd suggest you to make a comparison between the two. It's a very interesting thing to do... It gives you an insight on what changed along the years, and it's up to you to decide whether it's for the better or not. 🙂
To me, sure it is. 😁
Also the lyrics of this song are way more profound than many think. 🙂
Nice reaction as always. To me, who am an old grumpy git, it's such a pleasure to see a young man making such a journey in music from all eras. 🙂
See you at the next one. 🙂
I agree - the Gdansk version is one of my all-time favourites! Quickest 25 minutes of my life...every time! RIP Rick Wright - what a wonderful combination of voices with Dave. Never get tired of this song.
in 2016 david gilmour played there live to an audience. great version of "comfortably numb", for example. he was 70 then.
It is wonderful to see so many reactions to the music I listened to as a very young kid in the early 70's and the appreciation to what we took for granted yet blows your minds!
One of the best and most unique concert movies ever, it's worth watching in it entirety. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
The reason there was no audience, is because at that point in time (1971) a bunch of bands had just put out or were about to put out movies showing their concert tours. So either songs from different cities during a tour, or just one city, but all of them showing crowds. Of course, Pink Floyd had to be different, so they went to Pompeii and played for the ghosts and spirits of all those Romans would died when the volcano buried them in ash.....and there were several local kids that were allowed to sit in the exit tunnels, as long as they stayed out of the camera's sight. Lucky kids!!!!
Also, they decided to break up the song Echoes just so they could open and end the movie with parts 1 and 2, respectively.
Qudos Silas for doing both parts together, most reactors split it into 2 posts, I'm so glad you did it all together as it means so much more to listen as 1 masterpiece. Glad you noticed and appreciated how good Nick Mason is on drums he is often overlooked and yet he's so good. Thanks for hitting this, you are one of the few reactors out there who still genuinely listen to the comments and suggestions from your audience, keep up the great work.
so true, its always gilmour and wright mentioned but masons drumming is more prominent than wrights playing and waters bass is just beautiful
@@kevinohara2618 Yes, Roger Waters is given credit as the brains of the band but people never mention what a great musician he is too, mind you his lyrics are pure fire.
Now you know why us old guys are out of our heads all those years back and still are
You can see the singers (David Gilmour and Richard Wright) play complete Echies in 2006 (35 years after) on David Gilmour Remember That Night... Amazing... perfect!!!
There is a lot of symmetry in pink floyd and its also circular so it can be looped. Symmetry in music has been used for many centuries. Pink Floyd use "Modes" as well as chord progressions in their music which colours their music, I think they had a tendancy to use "Phrygian Mode"
Silas, you are a bad ass to react to this song. Many reactors will not touch this song... Thanks son. Btw, I had to put on my Beats Studio headphones for this reaction. ... Apple ear buds not loud enough. 😎
It's powerful that People from all ages and Walks of Life are communicating this way
I'm surprised how few people know of the history of Pompeii. I've seen a few reactions and I don't think anybody has known about it.
I always felt that the high pitch start to part 2 is whales crying. Thanks for reacting.
Pompei was a thriving city in the Roman empire that was destroyed when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 71 AD. The people tried to flee from the city but nearly all were unable to escape before the entire area was completely buried in the pyroclastic flow, volcanic ash, and searing hot gasses.
Excavation started around 1740 (after first being discovered around 1710), and as it progressed, they discovered entire city blocks, roads, markets, several brothels, nobility estates, the amphitheatre where this was done, of course, and small cramped housing - with painted walls and frescoes, as well as people - all of which were seemingly frozen in time at the moment of their deaths.
After I typed this, I found a link to a documentary about it -
ruclips.net/video/NOEBVWc8crI/видео.html
Love your Floyd reactions! The empty amphitheatre they are playing in represents performing for all the lost souls from the volcano eruption that used to frequent the place... So cool..
I have this full concert on VHS tape. ... Right now I'm sitting here telling you to please play part 2 and trust that they will take you away from the scary place and back to the beauty where they will let you go gently and sweetly into the universe of your own feelings of euphoria.
The Pompeii Amphitheatre was built roughly 2092 years ago. Luckily it was one of the first to be built out of stone as 149 years later it was buried by tons of volcanic ash and debris from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. You should really take a moment to search into the eruption of Vesuvius and the hollowed out forms of humans found later and how they were created. When David Gilmour returned to perform two concerts at the Amphitheatre in July 2016 as part of his Rattle That Lock Tour it was the first Public performance since it was buried 1,943 years ago. A concert you should try and enjoy. Peace/JT
You need to watch all the songs on the live at pompeii DVD/video.
All of them are fantastic.
Run like hell live in pompeii brings me chills everytime i watch it it is a magical place for pink floyd
50yrs ago, David was back there in 2016 doing a concert with an audience, have a look at that.😄
try echoes at gedansk ,....decades later ....david gilmour concert.
History in the making. This performance displays Pink Floyd at their finest.
Hooray Pompeii! It is symmetrical. the whole movie is an Echoes sandwich. Please do at least one other from Pompeii. You need to see Roger being Roger. Saucerful, Careful with that Axe, Set the Controls. Actually I recommend the whole movie not just the concert bits. See them at the diner. See them in the studio recording Dark Side!
Want to see them when they were your age? Then I still recommend checking them out with Syd.
First time I ever saw this video was in the pink floyd coffee shop in Amsterdam many years ago, awesome ❤😊
Watched this early seventies in Birmingham uk,this was showing at all the cinemas blew my mind
Darn, I thought you were doing the entire concert. Definitely worth watching.💗
What is so weird is that there are multiple audiences....1) You watching the movie 2) everyone else watching the movie 3) and if you are on LSD there is no time, so everyone who was ever @ that coliseum venue (Echoes of The Dead) is still watching. What aTRIP !
One of my favourites. One of these days is fantastic.
Ha! I'm laughing because you're laughing because this is so darn good. An artistic, landmark piece of live performance footage. Cheers.
Nice reaction. To round the series off you might want to react to Gilmour's performance of Echoes in Gdansk in 2006. It's the last full show with Richard Wright and also the last time Gilmour will ever play Echoes as he doesn't want to perform it without Richard. And I can understand it. At that point they gave been playing together some 40 years. Like great jazz bands of yesteryear who stayed together for decades, you cannot reproduce that kind of magical interaction with other musicians no matter how good they are. Gdansk shows them riffing off each other which is pure musical magic. The sound production is insanely good as well. Well worth your time.
THAT IS what you call PERFECTION 🥰💜
When you first said you weren't ready mentally for the guitar, we all were like, hang on to your headphones son!
It was filmed closed to the Vesuvius volcano in Italy. Pompéi is an ancient city which was devastated during one of theneruptions of the volcano.,
There's another song from the same concert, called A Saucerful of Secrets (the 4 minute version song). Its an amazing experience, i personally like it more than Echoes
I will be a sad, sad day when we lose David and RIP Ricky 🎹🎹, you were to sound of Pink Floyd. I love both those guys. 😎🎶
You see that spot where Nick is sitting? I sat there in 2017. It's what we drummers do. I've also sat in the same spot that Keith Moon is sitting on the cover of The Kids Are Alright 🤣
My Lord I forgot how great Nick Mason is in this.
He is amazing, he drives the track completely, though in fairness all four are brilliant and so tight together
Pure genius , plain& simple ❤👍
🤭 Watching this on my way to 🦸🏾♂️ NYCC! 🥰 Waiting for this! 🤗 Let's Go! 😁🐰
That’s what I’m talkin’ about ! Great song choice. I wonder how many miles away this epic song could be heard that day ? ☘️✌️
More Live at Pompeii: Careful with that axe Eugene, A saucerful of secrets, One of these days, Set the controls for the heart of the sun.
although it is said to have no audience there were some very lucky school children who snuck in and got to watch it, you cant see them on this footage but it is mentioned by those who were working there, one worker (i dont remember which one) has said that many many years later he met one of the kids at pompoeii
When we were kids in the seventies this was a staple at the Midnight Movie. They called it Dark Side of the Moon, it was the whole concert.
It’s near Naples. Amazing place to visit.
When I first saw this in my teens, I was blown away too. I still love watching it from time to time. It never gets old. I've kept this movie in my collection since the 80s. Finally had to upgrade from VHS to DVD, which has two versions of the movie. For some reason, they added computer graphics to make it more "modern." Which sucked. The original is the best. Glad to see you youngsters discovering REAL music. Think about this for a moment, everything you listened to wasn't done in a studio... it was played live.
Pink Floyd, there was nothing before them and there will be nothing like them again. If you like them, invest in every album (+ movie ,, The Wall ,,). Every album is musically different but unmistakably beautiful Pink Floyd color and flavor, you will get years of out of worldly experience that you will not regret. I know every album, every song, every note of every song and I still love to listen them with enjoyment. Good luck kid, it will be worth it
So happy you love it. My first concert was PF in 1973, "dark side of the moon"...... !!! I was14!
Their Finest Live Performance. But Then Again, I Like Old Floyd The Best...
All 4 members of pink are musical geniuses i have been following pink floyd since 1968 i am now 66 years old.
This is an iconic movie from 1972
First thing to say...the harmonies are just brilliant....then the Music!!!
Check out: High Hopes from the Pulse concert. You will not regret it 😉
The camera shots in this are bizarre at times. Often Gilmour is doing something momentous on guitar which they fail to capture. Other times, we get a slow pan across the front and even the back of the loudspeakers. Like, what were they thinking? It is a cool location Silas, but I guess there was no pressure because there were no crowds there. Also no visual effects for which they were known.
me encantan tus reaccionesespero mas reacciones a Pink Floyd
Wiki the black strat to realize what this guitar went through. Ended up selling in 2019 auction for 4 million dollars.
I know you are on a Floyd journey, but I'd like to suggest you get into early Genesis, with Peter Gabriel on Vocals and Phil Collin's world-class drumming, try the song "Firth of Fifth", which will be one of the best songs youi've ever heard, and the Steve Hackett guitar solo is poison.
Poison?
@@79BlackRose As an adjective, not the band.
@@glennbrock6560 I realise that, I have just never heard a virtuoso performance described as poison before.
@@79BlackRose Oh, okay. Not mine>
When the next Voyager space craft is sent into the solar system and beyond it should have a memory card on it with this track on it !
Fantastic Track
Now check out A Saucerful of Secrets, also, Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun, both at this same venue in Pompeii.
You DO realize you are officially an adult now, right?
Go get ‘em Tiger!!! ❤
So stoked you're getting to this!
A must watch the last time this will be played. " David Gilmours " Live at Gdansk" in front of 100,000. Actually the whole concert some daves solo some Floyd. Solo " ' on an island" ***** take a breath"***** "the blue" *** " A great day for freedom'" all back by an orcheshtra. Freaking amazing
25 of the most important minutes of music movie making. This movie is a monument to Floyd in the monument of Pompeii. Gilmour and Wright and Mason and Waters unveiling an opus in Echoes.🤍
Silas, you're awesome.
You are now a man Silas. Congratulations!
Yay!! Silas! great to see you react to this.
Ah man, you have to know Silas is gonna love this so much lol
Silas is digging this.
The whole film is very cool...even has footage of the band working on Dark Side of the Moon...
Ok, you've seen a Pompeii performance. Now, watch Saucerful of Secrets from Pompeii to see Musicians playing music for musicians... I've heard nothing like it ever..
Oooh!!! Gracias por revivirme esa obra de arte 👌
Be sure and check out Saucer Full of Secrets, from this same recording at Pompeii...
It's almost as if they are singing to the ghosts of the thousands of people who perished there in an instant and with no warning. Telling them that in the end it will be alright.
Pompeii was destroyed by a volcano and there was an audience, 1000s of long dead ghosts
I've read that 2 backpackers actually happened upon the scene......the only outside audience.
They young because this live in Pompeii is 1971 and pulse is 1994
SMOKIN!!!
Pink floyd gave a meaning to my lfie ! without it i will just be happy and stupid i think . I just wish i didn't knew this band .
Big sound for the lost souls of Pompeii.
Now watch the David Gilmour version from "Live In Gdansk" in 2005 and sit in even more awe.
