David Gilmour — Circo Massimo, Rome, 2024

62

Why this recording

Two hours twenty-two: the running time points to a film that follows the show as a whole, from 5 A.M. to Comfortably Numb, rather than a selection. The opening minutes run Black Cat and Luck and Strange before the Speak to Me, Breathe and Time sequence; further on, Fat Old Sun, Marooned, A Great Day for Freedom and Coming Back to Life sit alongside the expected songs. Vita Brevis leads into Between Two Points, and The Great Gig in the Sky sits next to In Any Tongue. Front Row Music links to Sony Pictures' digital release.

This filmed live concert captures David Gilmour at Rome’s Circo Massimo in 2024, in the ancient setting where the Pink Floyd guitarist and singer played six nights during his first tour since 2016, built around the album Luck and Strange. The full concert alternates new material (Luck and Strange, The Piper’s Call, Dark and Velvet Nights) with Pink Floyd landmarks: Time, Breathe, Wish You Were Here, Sorrow, High Hopes and a closing Comfortably Numb. Gilmour is backed by an expanded band — Guy Pratt on bass, Adam Betts on drums, Rob Gentry on keyboards — and his daughter Romany Gilmour on harp and vocals. Directed by Gavin Elder, the film frames the crystalline tone of his Stratocaster solos against the stone of the Roman circus. A valuable record of the 2024 live rock stage, poised between Floydian legacy and late-career writing, shot in one of the most history-laden venues in Europe.
