Pink Floyd's Pulse DVD finally


Didn't see anything posted yet but I know sometimes there is an 8 hour moderator "approval" first. Anyway, after many delays it's out and sounds and looks spectacular. Run don't walk to the nearest Best Buy or whatever. The nice saleslady even handed me a free lithograph for being one of the first. Enjoy.

Is the presentation on this DVD different than the import (Brazilian I believe) from a couple of years ago? That one may be a copy of the previously mentioned laserdisc. Does the new DVD release capture the "live performances" (i.e.: good footage of Gilmour & company – a true live experience) or is there a lot of additional imagery (i.e. psychedelic imagery overlays, etc.)??

Thanks,
Ben
Ben, I think it is more of what your are looking for. I had the VHS and the Laser and this DVD is special. Never saw any of the bootleg dvd copies but I don't think the quality of those could compare to what they have done here.
To add the Pulse DVD has a section on "upping the bootleggers"! It has someone with a hand held camera shooting the concert. This DVD is one of my favourites.

Thanks. I agree. I got it today. It certainly is a must have dvd. The only thing that frustrates me is the "additional (and unnecessary) imagery." For example, during one of Gilmour's best solos (Comfortably Numb) the camera shots are of the arena and special effects - God, what a waste (for me)- I want the damn cameraman to zoom in on the guitar, not the props. Overall, it is a great improvement over the older video releases from this concert.

Interesting. The arena effects during that solo are one of my favorite parts of the video. IMO, the combination of the music and effects is mesmerizing. It needs to be seen on a big screen though . . . would not have the same impact otherwise.
