For the friends of Pink Floyd I have a classic, just performed by David Gilmore and his band in Rome: 'Comfortably Numb' (Tapio Ylinen on YT)
The concerts in Rome took place in the old Circus Maximus, the old chariot racing circuit of ancient Rome. A truly extraordinary place.
To enjoy...

Great song and performance. To give you an idea of how old I am, we used to go to midnight showings of Pink Floyd in Pompeii :

No! I have been to Pompeii, but not when Pink Floyd played there. I'm not that old. They would show the film in the late 70s and early 80s. The music from that concert was pre Dark Side, I think.

Fantastic. I one missed the opportunity to see Paco de Lucia (greatest guitarist of spanish guitar) live in Germany because I preferred to see a hockey match (of course we lost)

Wow! He was a fantastic guitar player. Have you ever listened to Tommy Emmanuel? Australian guitar player. Not spanish style, but truly unbelievable. You should see him once.

That's from the new album, isn't it? I still need to listen somewhat deeper when I have 2 3 quite days. Family is now around with all the theatre You might imagine.
