THE WALL

This album, of course, contains some of Floyd’s greatest tracks, i.e. “Comfortably Numb” “Hey You” and “Mother”, but the remainder is boring, despite the heartfelt lyrics. This was a very commercial release for Pink Floyd, primarily due to the world famous “Another Brick in the Wall”. This was the first step down into the struggle of the worn-out imagination, which encapsulates every band. They were heading downhill with the absence of brakes. (My opinion, of course.) However, the album is well crafted and the vocal emotions are easily conveyed. The music itself is not particularly grasping.

My suggestion is that you borrow this double cd first, as it is a very like or dislike affair. (Don’t know anyone who hates it). This may bore the hardened prog listener.
