More than 40 years after I first heard it, and the second guitar solo in Comfortably Numb still makes me stop and listen every time I hear it. Whenever I think I've achieved something I remember that Dave Gilmour made that happen.
I can’t put my finger on what exactly makes him so great as a guitarist but he most definitely is.

Neither can I no matter how much I practise, it doesn't sound the same.

Damn right. Some guitarists are just inimitable like him, Jeff Beck, Richie Blackmore, Brian May etc.

that was oddly compelling given he didn't actually say or do anything
what a song though, best listened to flat on your back on your bed at 2am, fully clothed but off your head with the lights still on

@voodoo in some he and his brother do them and comment on many of them (end up down a rabbit hole watching them listen to RATM, Metallica, Linkin Park, Hendrix etc)

One of my flatmates in PNG loved PF but couldn't listen to them when we were there. Too many unexpected and strange sounds at times, and he always thought someone was trying to break in - again. I have never worked out why they were "unexpected" given that he was a huge fan.
