Pulse (stylised as P·U·L·S·E) is a live album by the English rock band Pink Floyd. It was released on 29 May 1995 by EMI in the United Kingdom and on 6 June 1995 by Columbia in the United States.
The album was recorded during the European leg of Pink Floyd’s Division Bell Tour in 1994.
The album is notable for including a complete live version of The Dark Side of the Moon. It also features “Astronomy Domine“, a Syd Barrett song not performed since the early 1970s.
The track “Another Brick in the Wall, Part II” features small portions of the songs “Another Brick in the Wall, Part I“, “The Happiest Days of Our Lives” and “Another Brick in the Wall, Part III“.
Unlike the previous live album Delicate Sound of Thunder, no parts of the songs were re-recorded in the studio. However, the band and Guthrie fixed songs that had bad notes (as heard on some bootlegs) by lifting solos and corrected vocal lines from other performances as the band recorded most of the European leg.
The album was mixed in QSound, which produces a 3D audio effect even on a two channel stereo system.
