Gilmour has done the Rick Beato interview!
According to Instagram, Rick Beato has done a long interview with Gilmour, should be out soon, if you don't know his Youtube channel, he does incredible interviews with musicals and song breakdowns etc

Cool! For some reason a lot of people have been commenting all over the place that Rick needs to interview Gilmour. I guess they both saw it and agreed.

He's getting a reputation and is getting some heavyweights of the music industry - just posted Rick Wakeman interview yesterda. Rick Rubin, Sting, Tony Levin, Alan Parsons, Steven Wilson, Satriani, Vai, Warren Haynes, Brian May, etc. I would imagine he would have pushed hard to get Dave with all of the publicity for the new album. I'd love to see him talk with Roger, that would be interesting.

This should be really good. I was waiting in line next to Beato in the Intuit Dome show and it sorta registered in my mind that he was somebody I recognized but I didn't think too much about it. Then at intermission he was in front of me waiting in the men's room, and as we were walking out together, someone approached him and said "Rick Beato, right? I love your videos, can I get a quick pic with you?" I watched them take the pic together, and then I actually saw it turn up on the internet a couple days ago. I'm glad Beato finally caught up with Gilmour, since he'd posted recently that he didn't think he could get access.

Based on the one short alone, my suspicions of this being your average bad Gilmour interview seem to be justified. The FIRST clip we get and it's immediately something we have already heard so many times. He even called it a "chord" and David had to correct him.
I honestly never understood the mass appeal that Beato gets. He asks the very most surface level questions and he seems so corporate. In my own belief, this interview is going to be terrible and teach us nothing new.

I couldn't respectfully disagree with you more. This has the potential to be Gilmour's best interview yet. Love Rick's show. He really knows his shit.

Hey I really hope I'm wrong. I'd love nothing more than for them to dicuss the guitar parts on Animals for 2 hours.
When's it's actually out?#8.4

I wanted to think positive thoughts about this interview's potential, but overall I think you nailed it.

In all fairness, you have to put those mass appeal teasers in a promo if you are looking to get the views/clicks/whatever. Hopefully he gets into more in-depth questions on gear or amp settings during the interview but that's not going to get the most initial attention on YT. "Will this guitar play after 50 years in a closet?" type hype on YT is nauseating.
Also, it IS a chord (Gm) and an arpeggio is just a way of playing it (picking each note in the chord vs playing all notes in the chord at once) so he's technically not wrong.

To be absolutely precise, it's Gm6, which is a chord that was already in use at the time. David didn't come up with that, he came up with the arpeggio.
So David was right to correct RB, and you were wrong to defend him. ;-)#9.2

Rick has an Arpeggio video class (and has taught at the college level) so he knows his stuff. I'm wondering if he was itching to say "No Dave, I'm right." That would have been hilarious.

Yeah, the way he ignored DG and called it "that chord" again, felt faintly pointed. But DG didn't come up with a chord, and I think Beato himself would admit that, were anyone to make a real issue of it.

Stop sweating up, Rick is great at his job, a very knowledgeable man.
There is not a lot he doesn't know about music and production.
He is also a Gilmour fan so should deliver a great interview.
Watch his channel if you dont already.- Likes7

Did you watch the one he did with Sting? Seemed to go well with good questions, and even Sting said it was a good chat at the end.

To me, he adjusts his schtick accordingly when it comes to how serious the guest is. He knows he can't pussyfoot with Sting. Same thing happened with some others. But most of the time he just feigns ignorance with his guests. It makes the video immediately unwatchable for me. He knows the answers to the questions he asks, he just asks for views.
My opinion.

I am hoping for the interview to be interesting, but I know exactly what you mean. It's not just Rick either, it's almost everybody who interviews anybody. I'm sure the artists PR person has guidelines for a lot of the interviews that are done. You can say this and you can ask that, don't mention Roger or politics, make sure you give Polly props and say what a wonderful writer she is, so on and so forth. We're really not getting too much new content out of these guys these days. Every interview with David is somewhat boring IMO, going all the way back, he really seems like he'd rather be doing anything else than talking about Pink Floyd for the gazillionth time.
I am really not a fan when people feign ignorance or surprise though. It's insulting to the person you're interviewing and to the audience who knows you know lol. I get uncomfortable just watching that kind of shit.
I expect the interview to be one hour and I really hope Rick can make him comfortable enough to maybe open up a little and we all gain a little insight we didn't have before.

Agreed with every single word you said. I can even recall Rick saying something in the Sting interview and Sting outright says (paraphrasing) "that's not right, Rick" or something like that. He called him out and named him and I remember watching that and feeling second-hand embarrassment. It felt good though.
I don't expect to learn anything new from this interview that is worthwhile. It's gonna be new stuff regarding Luck And Strange or Polly. While I like both, I don't care for new information in those fields.
That podcast David did with Gary and Guy was so unbelievably boring to me. They're legitimately asking him all of these questions that they UNDOUBTEDLY know. Like the story behind the recording studio, when and how David bought it. One half of that team is literally Guy Pratt who recorded IN THAT STUDIO not even a year after it was purchased. Them feigning ignorance during that whole podcast just made me feel so uncomfortable. You guys are friends with this man, you already KNOW all of this information.

Interviewers often ask questions for their audience, not themselves.
