Pink Floyd - Live at Pompeii (Director's Cut) Customer Reviews (1 - 3 of 43 Reviews)

Adding to my earlier review
I was reading through the reviews and saw that this guy didn't like the director's cut. Don't let that mislead you. If you watch the movie and don't like the director's cut, just go under the features and watch the original concert.

i like that feature, you can watch the updated and/or the original thing. Also, you get to hear the story of this concert told by Adrian Maben himself.

With a great variety of songs, and the environment to go with it, this is a perfect dvd. Shoot, I'm a child, and I watch this dvd over and over. I hope that you can enjoy this as much as I do.

Amazing
WOW. I just got my copy in the mail today.
I lit one up and sat down and watched this movie.
A Saucerful of secrets, Echoes, One of these Days....simply amazing.
the editing is flawless.
great picture quality.
studio footage is awesome.
the directors cut version is corny, original concert is much better (its on the menu).

i originally didnt care for Pink Floyds older stuff (pre dark side) and now i have a totally different view, the old stuff is amazing, and is what is on this DVD.


i highly suggest getting this.

*update: Ive watched this DVD 8 times in 3 days, i cant get enough of it

Live with No Audience
Pink Floyd is one of the best rock bands during history. This DVD is special for there's no audience at all. It sounds funny at it is also. There's great instruments like gong which is played in the instrumental song "A Saucerful of Secrets". Pink Floyd plays well and most of the concert is instrumental but however this concert is very good. There's shown much of the environment of vulcanic Pompeii. The vocals that there is are well done and they sound strange. I guess this is what Pink Floyd is...or at least was during the beginning of 70's. It is kind of disturbing that there's document during the concert too...the songs "Us And Them" and "Brain Damage" are just background songs for the document. You can play just the concert...there's the choice in the extras which offers you to do that. Pink Floyd has made something special playing this kind of gig....I wish I had been there...or at least someone...

Set list:
Echoes part 1 - great song, quite long
Careful with that Axe Eugene - great, strange lyrics & vocals
A Saucerful of Secrets - quite intersting
One of These Days - instrumental but a great one
Mademoiselle Nobs - a dog is singing, that's funny
Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun - also a great song
Echoes part 2 - great song
