This was always my late wife's favorite live concert, and mine:



Her favorite song was always about the plight of the homeless:



She was a passionate defender of the homeless.

Pink Floyd was, IMHO, the leader in progressive rock, from their very first album, "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" up to Live, Pulse.

to stream as well. But, I do enjoy watching it often. There are a handful of concerts I feel that way about and I own them all. Incredible audio and video quality that makes it a true pleasure to watch--and that music!

Animals.
They sounded great but they are pretty boring.
And all the props like the pig, laser screen, spark tower got crapped up by high winds.

And listening to every word, every chord. Now, some 50 years later, I’m still smitten by this band. I have this concert on “speed dial” and now on DU as I listen to it a lot. My favorite of favorites is On The Turning Away. I remember the first time I heard it and still, after numerous times, it gets me. Thanks for posting these concerts and sharing a sentimental memory 🌺
