Product Description
Blu-ray edition. Live At Pompeii is the project from David Gilmour, and follows his critically acclaimed studio album Rattle That Lock from September of 2015. Following the release of Rattle That Lock in 2015, David Gilmour set out to play a series of concerts in historic venues across the world. On July 7th and 8th, 2016, David Gilmour performed two spectacular shows at the legendary Pompeii Amphitheatre in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, 45 years after he first played there for Adrian Maben's classic film Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii. The concerts were the first-ever rock performances played to an audience in the ancient Roman amphitheater, which was built in 90 BC and entombed in ash when Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. David Gilmour is the only performer to play to an audience in the arena since the time of the gladiators, almost 2,000 years ago. Speaking about the Pompeii shows David Gilmour commented 'It's a magical place and coming back and seeing the stage and the arena was quite overwhelming. It's a place of ghosts...' Includes songs from throughout David's career including the title tracks of his two most recent #1 solo albums: Rattle That Lock and On An Island. Also included are other solo and Pink Floyd classics such as 'Wish You Were Here,' 'Comfortably Numb' and 'One Of These Days,' the only song that was also performed by the band in 1971. Both concerts also saw extraordinary performances of 'The Great Gig In The Sky' from The Dark Side Of The Moon, which David rarely plays as a solo artist. The concert performance film, David Gilmour Live at Pompeii, was shot in 4k by director Gavin Elder and includes highlights from both shows. The concert is a spectacular audio-visual experience, featuring the famous huge circular cyclorama screen as well as lasers, pyrotechnics and stellar performances from an all-star band.

The sound is just stunning - we listen in 2.1 on our patio - and I don’t mean weak speakers… big sub and d’Appolito mains from a really nice Atlantic Technology line. Not having walls to reflect back just makes the performance shine and the recording is not muddied by the room (we aren’t in a room - and the venue is not either)
We saw the movie at the one night only Sept 13th showing (by the way I won a movie poster at a silent auction. Now framed and hanging on my wall). I was somewhat disappointed because it did not show the entire show. I am a stickler for set lists and was somewhat dismayed when some songs were omitted or played out of order.
That being said, I received the CD and video of David Gilmour’s Live at Pompeii the day of release. Just tonight, we watched the Blue Ray. OK, WOW! I felt like I was there. Although; I would have donated a kidney to be there those nights, I actually felt like I was in the crowd.
The mix, was good but as one reviewer pointed out the bass was somewhat missing. I hardly noticed because of the mix of the other instruments. I noticed as another reviewer pointed out, the subtleties of catching certain notes on the mix. Very impressive to catch those.
In all, MW is right. It’s not Pink Floyd at Pompeii. It’s a musician who had the honor and privilege to play in the Pompeii arena, not once but twice and the first since the Gladiators to perform in front of an audience. Nor is it Remember That Night. On that tour, David played with his long time friend, Rick Wright. And above all else it’s not PULSE. All directed by different people at different times. I have all of David’s and Floyd’s videos and still enjoy them very much.
So, come on Haters, give people a chance. Give David Gilmour Live At Pompeii a chance. He is in the twilight of his career. As all know by now, we Lost Tom Petty yesterday. I had the privilege to see him perform just once in my life this last summer and consider myself lucky. I have seen David with Floyd once and four times on solo tours and consider myself Honored.
Watch both Live At Pompeii and Remember That Night. Yes David is a decade older between the two but aren’t we all one day older every morning? Don’t judge, pour a beverage or three, dim the lights, turn it up to 11 and just sit back. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

The only gripes I have with this DVD are ... The band over uses a fog machine to the point where the video quality cannot be fully appreciated. Next gripe is with the music video industry. The film editor ruins the concert for me. the edits are so short that one cannot fully appreciate the musicianship of these truly amazing artists. The camera does not stay on Gilmore's guitars long enough to truly enjoy this amazing guitarist. I am not qualified to comment on the set list as I am not a Pink Floyd fan. I am just a fan of great guitarists and other musicians.
I saw this concert a couple times at a movie theater and the sound was absolutely stunning. I was in the second row and I felt as if I were on the stage. It was better than actually being at any live concert I can remember.
So I had low expectations for the Blu-Ray. The sound is great on the Blu-Ray - really crisp. But it's not the same experience as being enveloped by the Dolby system at the theater. The acoustic guitar and keyboards fit in great with the 5.1. And the bass is at a perfect level (contrary to what other reviewers said). Check your speaker levels. The audio is mixed perfectly, both 5.1 and stereo.
It doesn't make sense to compare the video with RTN because RTN was going for a film look.
If you go back and watch the P.U.L.S.E. concert from the 90's, I think you'll agree that David Gilmour has gotten even better with age, like a fine wine. Remarkable. Can he do this when he's 80 and still show refinement of his art? Probably.
The other musicians were excellent too. The drumming and bass were as solid as they were in RTN, which as pretty darn solid. The new backup guitar player and keyboard players were at least as good as from RTN (big shoes to fill after the death of Rick Wright), and they benefitted from a much better recording and mix.
It's now difficult to watch my other Blu-Ray concerts. Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds at Radio City is the only one with comparable sound quality, though I believe Pompeii now nudges out the top spot.
I convert my Blu-Rays to stereo audio for listening with headphones. The stereo mix on the Blu-Ray is excellent, though I'd say that the mixed-down uncompressed 5.1 to stereo might be a little better. Normally 5.1 mixes are not this good.
