Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb Live PULSE (1994)

Here's a 1994 live video of Pink Floyd, one of the first progressive rock bands in the world. Their live shows are always incredibly elaborate and this video is one of the best of theirs that I've every seen. The light show is just incredible at the ending guitar solo. The lights coordinate with the "feel" of the guitar. Btw, the guitar solo has consistently been voted the within the top 5 best rock guitar solos of all time. The solo is slow, but the "feel" is incredible and most people who can truly appreciate music will tell you that the solo covers a wide range of emotions. Happiness, sadness, hopelessness, fear, yearning, etc. To me, that is how a guitar solo should be. It's not the speed that counts, but the "feel".
