wouldnt call that essential listening at all. there are at least a dozen other superior performances by the splicer :smile:

"Comfortably Numb" is definitely a top tier performance.

In terms of guitar performance, Wish You Were Here isn't really anything special. I think Atom Heart Mother could be on here, along with maybe Have A Cigar.

I've heard you call him that before, but is there any actual proof he spliced together different solos, rather than playing a few solos and picking out the best bits for the final version.

More to the point, does it actually matter? Using the studio to one's advantage to create excellent music is hardly a negative thing.

Best solo ever.

I have included Best Solos.

A bio will be nice.

Maybe a greatest guitar albums also.

I suggest you use the letters IMO when making that solo list....for example, my fave solo of his along with CN is easily High Hopes.....Atom heart mother iirc also had a solo i really like . ...

But his opinions are facts. You should know this by now.

Really?

Do you even know from where I get that list of Gilmour´s solos? I think you will be surprise.

Wasn't talking about the list. I was poking fun at how you present your opinions as facts all the time.
