Featuring the unique artwork of Gerald Scarfe, the album also yielded the US & UK No. 1 hit Another Brick In The Wall Pt2., and was subsequently adapted for cinema by Alan Parker featuring Bob Geldof in the lead role.
The album was re-mastered in 2011 and Discovery (1CD), Experience (2CD), Immersion (6CD) and vinyl editions are currently available. Go to www.whypinkfloyd.com/ for more details.

You know what? If someday Pink Floyd gets a movie like Bohemian Rapsody, about all the highs and lows throughout all the band history, this should be the final scene
-
2:01 I like how Nick flings away those headphones just to listen at David's heavenly solo for one last time on live

17 years ago today. The sun is setting and time is running out. It's the autumn of their lives. 4 English boys, 4 architecture students, 4 classmates, 4 coworkers, 4 business partners, 4 superstars, 4 tycoons, 4 friends, 4 enemies, reunite one last time, for one last show, for one last song. It's the end of a legend, but the beginning of a legacy. That night at Hyde Park, for 24 minutes, Heaven was on Earth.

This is the best version on the internet, because the whole band is together, the cameraman shows the emotions of all 4 guys as they play, and there is no musical overindulgence. The final solo is succinct, musical, perfect. Best Version.

If the people in the crowd knew, how lucky they were to see the full lineup - RIP Richard Wright 1943-2008
-
Roger Waters and David Gilmour one of the best musical tandems of all time. They don't get along very well offstage, but onstage they are pure magic.
-
You just get the sense that they all knew this was the last time they would play together. I love watching them all jam, especially Richard Wright. Seeing him give the keys all he has still gives me goosebumps.
-
Just some old guys in jeans playing some of the finest music you will ever hear. No flash, no bling just pure talent.
-
2:03 - Nick decides that potential permanent ear damage doesn't even come close to listening to DG playing the solos with the original band members for the last time :)
-
In my humble estimation Comfortably Numb is the greatest piece of rock music ever written. Waters is a genius with the lyrics and Gilmour, Wright. and Mason likewise for the music that carries those great lyrics. Nobody rivals their style and presentation. When I am listening to Floyd, all is right with my world.
-
No doubt at all. The last three minutes are one of the most intensive moment in the history of music. Pure magic.
-
Let's be honest here! This is not your first time here, nor will it be the last.
-
R.I.P. Richard Wright . We miss you !
-
I was there I won two tickets on the radio will never forget seeing Pink Floyd play together after all those years apart it was epic I'm one lucky geordie lass 😍
-
5:16 this should be a painting. Magic
-
When you haven't played together Live in 22 years and you can still make it sound just like the album.............
-
The moment at 5:15 where Rick and Roger are perfectly sincronized with each other is a thing of beauty
-
This performance (this one specifically) is arguably the summit moment of rock history.
-
this is the most emotional live show i've seen. no crying, just pure emotion and passion coming from out of those mouths and instruments, all 4 of the original guys coming together for the last few minutes of an already dying band, and giving it one last powerful hurrah. fantastic!
