I'll be really curious to see this one's results, even though I think I can guess.
3 days!

I'm loving The Wall more and more each time I hear it. Listening to it when you're in the right mood is really quite an experience.

It does not occur often that two PF-albums, of which one stands far above the other, are matched, but this is one of those few possibilities: Wish You Were Here by a nautical league.

WYWH *****
The Wall **½
The live version of the Wall is way more enjoyable to me, but still not enough by a longshot.

This one was an easy one. Other a masterpiece, other just an average effort.
So, my vote goes to Wish You Were Here!

I think lot of people will say that Roger Waters sucks. This is one of the reasons why I'm voting for the Wall. The second is called Comfortably Numb.

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

As per the stage marquee at The Pulse concert, Roger Who? Except for Comfortably Numb and a few scattered Gilmour leads, The Wall sucks too.

When a song has lyrics they should be considered as part of the whole thing. The Wall can't be appreciated without going in depth with the lyrics and the concept. It's just different from Atom Heart Mother.

Actually, both are far removed from my favorite PF albums.
I might have a slight preference for the Wall though. Even if that one doesn't have the magic of the Shine On overture.

WYWH for sure. Whole album is strong. The Wall, though very good, has some duds in my opinion.

This is the first one that has been hard for me, I've always liked The Wall more, but I put on Wish You Were Here yesterday, and, it was almost as if I discovered my favorite band for the first time AGAIN! So my vote goes for WYWH today, might be the wall tomorrow, but not today.
