    Although Without Roger Waters - the Creative Soul of the Band - aStunning and Spectacular Concert

    `The Delicate Sound of Thunder' is stunning. David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright, supported by outstanding musicians and backing vocals, and a great selection of songs, give a marvelous 90 min. concert. Although without Roger Waters - the creative soul of the group, this show is stunning. It is difficult to highlight a song, but `The Great Gig in the Sky' in the voices of Margret Taylot, Durga McBroom and Rachel Fury and the saxophone of Scott Page in `Us and Them' are unforgettable. The light and choreography, together with the performance of the stars works perfectly in this video. `Comfortably Numb' is fantastic. My vote is ten.

    I was at this concert.

    The movie was not too bad. The concert was real good the effects, lasers and pyros. The only problem is that it does not look nearly as good on the video as I remember them from the concert. The concert CD has much better sound than the video in VHS format.

    The Blu-ray is in one word "amazing"

    Just watched the Blu-ray, amazing compared to the DVD. Recommendable great sound and picture quality.

    Rather Good

    It is a great documentation of the Nassau 1988 Concerts but the filming is terrible, mostly dark and, virtually, everything moves too fast, thus, one does not get a clear picture of what is happening on stage at all times.

    You should get this one if you are a collector or a Pink Floyd fan.

    And one other low point, it is just one hour and 30 minutes of the concert, however, the original concert was about two hours and 20-30 minutes.

    If you are looking for a Pink Floyd concert, PULSE or Live At Pompeii are far better.

    Definitely the best live Floyd out there...

    Definitely the best live Floyd out there...

    I saw this Tour in L.A. Ca., and it was the first and only time i got to see them live :-(.

    I thought it was a great concert then, but now that i've seen it on video... it's even better.

    I also have a few other videos of them live (dvds :-)_, including "Pulse". And a few David Gilmore dvds, but this tops'em all.

    It's definitely a must have.

    ps - can't wait for it to come out on DVD though. pss - I think that it was released on laserdisk at one time.

    see ya, Ted.

    • Trivia
      Although Dave Gilmour stated around the time of its release and on a radio interview in 1992 that the album contained no studio overdubbing whatsoever, he embellished the tracks during mixing with some extra acoustic guitar on "Comfortably Numb", according to engineer Buford Jones. In addition, some harmonies were replaced by studio re-takes: Richard Wright re-did his vocal on "Us and Them" and Sam Brown replaced Rachel Fury's part in "Comfortably Numb"but the rest of the album was what was played at the shows.
