Description

Comfortably Numb, Pink Floyds iconic song, was born from bassist Roger Waters painful experience with a powerful tranquilizer before a show in Philadelphia. The track, from their 1979 album The Wall, became a cornerstone of the album, exploring themes of loss and fame. Despite growing tensions, the songs creation was a true collaboration, with guitarist David Gilmour contributing a chord sequence and producer Bob Ezrin playing a crucial role in shaping the track. The final recording blends both Waters and Gilmours visions, featuring two celebrated guitar solos and a unique vocal arrangement, making it a timeless classic.
