I completely agree with Botley. The Edge has made himself a name playing with this "delay" technique which Gilmour already used in "One of These Days" and perfectioned in "The Wall". It's like Eddie Van Halen who is famous for the "tapping" technique which Steve Hackett was already using as far back as 1971 in songs like "The Giant Hogweed" by Genesis.
