The Pink Floyd live album that won a Grammy — and the category

Pink Floyd’s only live album to win a Grammy was Pulse (often stylized as P•U•L•S•E). It won the 1996 Grammy for Best Music Video – Long Form, not for a specific song but for the full concert film and album package.

The win came at the 38th Grammy Awards, honoring the recording of their 1994 Division Bell tour. The concert footage, directed by David Mallet, captured the band’s massive stage show including the circular screen and the iconic floating pig. Pulse was also a commercial success, topping charts worldwide, but its Grammy nod was strictly for the video production, not the audio album itself.
