Background
P•U•L•S•E (pronounced, and
sometimes written, as Pulse) is a live double
CD by Pink Floyd, released on May 29, 1995, and
is considered widely by many fans to be the best
live album released by Pink Floyd, despite the
departure of former band leader Roger Waters,
containing songs from famous albums Dark Side
of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, and The Wall.
The album was recorded during the band's Division
Bell tour in 1994, specifically the UK and European
leg, which ran from July to October 1994 (See
Pink Floyd live performances).
The album includes a complete live version of
The Dark Side of the Moon and features a booklet
with many photos from performances on this tour.
It also features "Astronomy Domine,"
a Syd Barrett song not performed since the early
1970s, as a tribute to the original Floyd guitarist.
Unlike Delicate Sound of Thunder, David Gilmour
and producer James Guthrie have stated that no
parts of the songs were re-recorded in the studio.
However, the band and Guthrie fixed songs that
had bad notes (as heard on some bootlegs) by lifting
solos and corrected vocal lines from other performances
as the band recorded most of the European leg.
In the U.S., P•U•L•S•E debuted
at #1 on the Billboard 200 in June 1995 (briefly
dethroning Hootie and the Blowfish's Cracked Rear
View for a week before Hootie regained the #1
spot in the U.S.) and was soon certified Double
Platinum on July 31, 1995.
The cassette issue had two bonus tracks: "One
of These Days" and a 22 minute ambient piece
that was played prior to the 1994 concerts.
The vinyl version comes in a 4-LP box and includes
"One of These Days" as well as a large
version of the photo booklet. The video version
(the only release of P•U•L•S•E
with an accurate running order) also featured
the song "Take It Back," and was, in
fact, the complete performance from their October
20th show at Earl's Court, London.
On July 10, 2006, the P•U•L•S•E
DVD was released of the concert performed on October
20, 1994 at Earls Court Exhibition Centre, London.
