Pink Floyd Live at Knebworth - 'Comfortably Numb' Performance
In August 1990, Pink Floyd performed at Knebworth Park as part of the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy Benefit Concert. At this point in their career, the band had recently released their thirteenth studio album, "A Momentary Lapse of Reason," in 1987, which marked their return after a lengthy hiatus and the departure of Roger Waters. The album achieved commercial success, reaching high chart positions globally and featuring hits like "Learning to Fly." The Knebworth concert was significant not just as a showcase of their revived popularity following their split but also as a reflection of their continuing evolution as a band, combining classic tracks with newer material. This performance of "Comfortably Numb" remains a highlight in their live repertoire, demonstrating the band’s enduring appeal and the emotional weight of their music, particularly within the context of a charity event.
