The performances were the first rock concerts ever to be performed in the stone Roman amphitheatre, and, for two nights only, the 2,600-strong crowd stood exactly where gladiators would have fought in the first century AD.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>David Gilmour Live At Pompeii<\/em><\/strong> is an audio experience on its own, while the audio-visual spectacle features lasers, pyrotechnics and a huge circular screen on which specially created films complement selected songs. Paramount, however, is the incredible music: the show includes songs from throughout David\u2019s career, as well as many Pink Floyd classics, including \u2018One Of These Days\u2019, the only song that was also performed at the band\u2019s 1971 show. Both concerts also saw very special performances of \u2018The Great Gig In The Sky\u2019 from <em>The Dark Side Of The Moon<\/em>, which David rarely plays as a solo artist.<\/p>\n<p>The 2-disc concert audio was produced by David Gilmour, and mixed by Andy Jackson and David Gilmour. The 148-minute concert film includes highlights from both shows, filmed in 4k by director Gavin Elder. DVD and Blu-ray versions contain an extra 7-minute documentary by Gavin Elder entitled \u2018Pompeii Then And Now\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover2\" title=\"David Gilmour - Live At Pompeii \u2013 2-CD version\" src=\"http:\/\/100recs.localhost\/img\/rls\/offer\/1709\/DavidGilmour_2CD.jpg\" alt=\"David Gilmour - Live At Pompeii \u2013 2-CD version\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"cover2\" title=\"David Gilmour - Live At Pompeii \u2013 deluxe version\" src=\"http:\/\/100recs.localhost\/img\/rls\/offer\/1709\/DavidGilmour_deluxe.jpg\" alt=\"David Gilmour - Live At Pompeii \u2013 deluxe version\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>deluxe 4-disc Blu-ray box<\/strong> contains the 2-CD version, the 1-disc Blu-ray version, plus a full 207 minutes of extra footage: 11 live performances and 5 documentaries, plus bonus collectables.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"centre\" title=\"David Gilmour - Live At Pompeii \u2013 vinyl version\" src=\"http:\/\/100recs.localhost\/img\/rls\/offer\/1709\/DavidGilmour_vinyl.jpg\" alt=\"David Gilmour - Live At Pompeii \u2013 vinyl version\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Vinyl lovers can enjoy a <strong>deluxe 4-LP<\/strong> version in gatefold sleeves and a hardback slipcase, plus a 24-page photo booklet.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re offering <em>Live At Pompeii<\/em> at <strong class=\"darkred\">special pre-sale prices<\/strong>, which won\u2019t be available after release. <a href=\"https:\/\/hundredrecords.com\/offers.php#r170929_David%20Gilmour\">Click here<\/a> for more details and to order your copy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pre-sale of the week is Live At Pompeii by David Gilmour, out on 29 September. 5 years after Pink Floyd\u2019s David Gilmour filmed \u2018Live At Pompeii\u2019 in the legendary Roman amphitheatre there, he returned for two spectacular shows, part of his year-long tour in support of his No.1 album Rattle That Lock.
