Advantages: Stunning animation, thought-provoking, excelent music Disadvantages: Concentration
Symbolic and surreal, ‘The Wall’ defies categorisation of genre: animated film; musical; contemporary art?
I first watched ‘The Wall’ (directed by Alan Parker) when I was 15. Even then I could see the powerful messages which were being portrayed through the use of imagery, cinematography and the music and lyrics of Pink Floyd. However, to fully appreciate the depth of ‘The Wall’, the film becomes even more enjoyable ...

Advantages: Great songs, use of instruments and brilliant innovative style Disadvantages: Some parts seem to drag on a bit
...of Another Brick In The Wall, the livelier, up-beat version that includes the more meaningful singing by the children. However, at the end of this track comes the most amazing guitar solo suiting the album one hundred percent. After this comes more soulful guitar strumming reflecting tough times in the war. Within track ten comes a good, lively number with a clear rock influence containing immaculate guitar solos, great piano playing and amazing lyrics ...

Outstanding Review ofWall, The (Remastered) - Pink Floydby
garethd
Advantages: Great Songs Disadvantages: A bit on the long side
This album just shows what a brilliant live band Pink Floyd are, as the album captures brilliantly the entire double album `The Wall` (originally released in 1979), with the shows from which the album was taped held between 1980 and 1981. The album is really as good as the original studio album, and captures its electric and powerful sound from the hardest guitar riff right down to the band`s trademark sound effects. There are however a couple of ...

Advantages: Classic Pink Floyd Disadvantages: Some won't like it! You've been warned
...purchased a cd entitled the Wall, the film, quite different to the usual album, the cd is a soundtrack of the actual film and has a couple of tracks not on the original recording such as When the Tigers Broke Free and The Boy That Santa Claus Fogot.
Truly both the album, artwork and album are timeless classics. ...

Another classic ! Review ofWall, The (Remastered) - Pink Floydby
KarenUK
Advantages: Comfortably Numb is the best song ever !! Disadvantages: There are a couple of weaker tracks
The Wall is possibly the best known of Pink Floyd's many albums over the decades, especially because of the accompanying film starring Bob Geldof as the notoriously insane pop star who shaves off his eyebrows ! The track Another Brick in the Wall was also a huge hit single, staying at Number 1 in the charts for several weeks. Personally, my favourite song on this album is the lesser known Comfortably Numb, which is also my favourite song of all time ...

Advantages: The best Pink Floyd's LP Disadvantages: none
...first harvest of my life.
The Wall, written in 1979 by Pink Floyd and performed by David Gilmour and the sublime Roger Waters is my best Lp. A long music tale, telling the story of Pinky: his youthness, the heavy love of his mother, his strange loves and, finally, the changing in his mind and in his life.
The base concept is: are we only a brick in the wall? Only an anonimous part of a big building: only arms, without brain, without heart? around ...

One of the Trinity Review ofWall, The (Remastered) - Pink Floydby
Saturn
Advantages: Classic Disadvantages:
There are only three 'concept albums' worth the money, and this is one of them. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by Genesis is one of the other and Tommy sort of holds up the other corner.
Pink Floyd always had this thing about being tortured by success and talent, but in The Wall 'attitude' just bursts out everywhere. It is a tour de force and a crushing indictment of the negative side of a British upbringing, from skinheads to stupid teachers, ...
