I got the David Gilmour boxset for my dad for christmas; I was watching it with him the other day and its truely amazing. The vid is is the song High Hopes played with the Polish philharmonic I believe. I was stunned by it, especially the ending!

Division Bell gets ripped apart by the critics, but I reckon it's Pink Floyd's best album along with the Wall.

What i like about Gdansk is that David Gilmour seems to get better and more accurate with age. We have almost all the live performances of Pink Floyd and David Gilmour you can get on either Audio or DVD or both and it really does get better the later it gets, although i have to say that for me, Pompei is one of the best and that doesn't really fit my thoery, but what the hell.

My point is that with age, he has only got better and Gdansk is an absolute masterpiece - more so for Richard Wright, this being the last big performance of his lifetime.

I originally bought the 2cd and DVD set quite cheap but there is another one that has hours and hours more footage of Sessions, Interviews and other performances. It's Currently £50 but i'm scouring T'internet for a better price and i will surely get it soon.

Like i said, Pure Class.
