David Gilmour "Echoes"

Whoa...huh...huh...dude. Song is trippy.

Sorry. This sort of acoustic version of "Echoes," which can be found on David Gilmour's "Remember That Night" dvd, isn't nearly as trippy as the original on Pink Floyd's "Meddle" album. (For you kids out there, an album was a large, round piece of vinyl that played music when placed upon something called a turntable.) This version also isn't almost 24 minutes long like the original, which is not necessarily a bad thing. Twenty-four minutes of guitars, vocals, and what sounded like whale noises can test one's love of the Floyd, not to mention the nerves of one's spouse.

This is a short, peppy, slightly jazzy version of "Echoes" and I quite enjoyed it. Looks like the band did too.
