Without a doubt, this is the best concert video I have ever seen. I can't understand why it is unavailable in Blu Ray or to buy digitally. I have the DVD which I purchased many years ago. What an amazing show. I saw Pink Floyd once, I believe it was 1977 at the Cow Palace near San Francisco. Incredible!

It's terrific to see Pink Floyd playing well together in their mega-dynamic way here in the PULSE concert, now remastered wonderfully for a DVD set. They go through many of their hits, most notably all of Dark Side of the Moon, and seeing the band go through Shine on You Crazy Diamond is as amazing as it gets from the group (a great opener that is hard to top). And overall the core of the musicianship of David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright do gel together at times. But then there's the thing of it being such a HUGE event live, lasers and special videos on a big screen behind them included, that they have to work that much more harder to keep up with the theatrics. They're up to task, but there's something missing from it all too, and not just the obvious (Roger Waters, who is now doing his own version of this show more or less on his Dark Side tour). Maybe it's me putting it too much into perspective; seeing the film that preceded this one some twenty years before, Live at Pompeii, PULSE isn't as forceful and tremendous even on such a scale as playing in Earl's Court to who knows how many people.I guess this is my way of saying that the concert, for me at least, is not a flawless one like Pompeii comes close to (even if that is, by turns, not in the same style of performance as in PULSE). And in comparison with many of the classic Floyd songs of the 70s, the newer work (with a couple of exceptions like Learning to Fly and Keep Talking) sort of falls up short, with a song like High Hopes one that I fast-forward past. But this aspect of the concert is not very detrimental, just a minor liability for more die-hard old-school Floyd fans. In terms of just capturing the band live, and the band with its immense ensemble of back-up players and singers, the director gets it all down without a hitch. If it also has a little added historical value to it too, it may also be because, unless something happens in the next few years (and in 2006 both Gilmour, with the occasional Mason and Wright in tow, and Waters went on their own solo tours), this might be the last time Pink Floyd are seen live on video.

There is no language able to tell the perfection of this artists work!!I saw the concert a few years before on a tv station from Bucharest, but it was late in the night and I think I was too little to understand the entire industry that was developing before me. recently I bought the concert (in time I became a fan of the band) and, believe me, in a few minutes, watching the images on Shine on you Crazy Diamond, realizing the perfect coordination between music-lyrics(the meaning)-lights, I ( the inconscient is to be blame:)) begin to cry.And these was just the beginning. In the highest point of the show (Confortably Numb) I guarantee that you`ll reach Nirvana. I have to say: the experience of this concert can be hardly spot,you must try it (maybe the films of Lynch can bring you on a closer point). I pray that one day I will see Pink Floyd maybe here in Romania. I really hope that PULSE was not their last strike of great music.

Absolutely marvelous Pink Floyd concert. This is proof that their careers CAN still survive without Roger Waters. I'd have to give this show 12.5 out of 10!!!David Gilmour puts on an excellent show for the Division Bell tour (the album itself is actually not as bad as a lot of people might say it is.) Gilmour's singing and guitar work are through the roof! Nick Mason's drumming was awesome. Rick Wright still plays a good synth after all these years (I liked hearing him sing "Time.")The extra musicians are also good. Guy Pratt (who is now Wright's son-in-law) is awesome on the bass and when he sings "Run Like Hell." Tim Renwick's guitar solos on "Learning to Fly" and "Another Brick in the Wall" were cool. Jon Carin is a good second keyboardist alongside Wright. Gary Wallis's percussion was okay, but he seems to be making Mason completely obsolete.They played the entire "Dark Side of the Moon" album. Amazing! The "On the Run" video was extremely weird, but the end of the song is cool with the airplane (that's as much as I'm going to tell you about that, you'll have to see it yourself.) Gilmour does just as good as Roger did on "Brain Damage/Eclipse."Also watch for the three-piece encore performance. "Wish You Were Here" (better than the original) "Comfortably Numb" (best version EVER, I wish I was there) and "Run Like Hell" (ultimate Floyd party song!!)Absolutely fabulous concert! Now if only Pink Floyd would do some new material. It's about time!!!!
