Pink Floyd Performs 'Comfortably Numb' Live from Delicate Sound Of Thunder

Location: London Date: November 22, 1988

In November 1988, Pink Floyd performed at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, as part of their "Delicate Sound of Thunder" tour, which was in support of their fourteenth studio album, "A Momentary Lapse of Reason," released earlier that same year. This album marked a significant turning point for the band, as it was their first after the departure of founding member Roger Waters. The live performance captured in the video "Comfortably Numb" is notable for showcasing the band's ability to create an immersive concert experience, integrating elaborate visuals and a rich sound that resonated with audiences. During this period, Pink Floyd was revitalizing their legacy, with the 'Delicate Sound of Thunder' album later becoming one of the best-selling live albums of all time—reinforcing their status in rock history even after internal shifts within the band.
