Review
The Wall is less a collection of songs than a single work, which is sometimes frustrating; the plot lacks enough coherence to hold the snippets of music together. However, there are occasional flashes of brilliance on what ranks as Pink Floyd's most ambitious project. Most of these come from the fully developed songs, which have become classics in their own right. "Hey You," "Mother," and especially "Comfortably Numb" are subtle, incredible pieces of music. Though complex, they move at a relaxed pace, allowing the listener to absorb them slowly; this kind of pacing was something Pink Floyd excelled at. Also worth noting is the "Another Brick in the Wall/The Happiest Days of Our Lives" medley, which has become a staple of rock radio. --Genevieve Williams

Summary: forget about it Overall Rating: Comment: yow wants ta bild a good CD kollexxion then a-void this crappy CD and all others of this vain band, buy Prince and the Generation's great masterpiece 'Calling all Stations" and Wayne Moody's 'Serenade to a Star'. Glad to be of any help! Robbie Saxton, New England Summary: Does not require buy-in. Overall Rating: Comment: After basically ignoring THE WALL for years once I decided that I had no patience with Roger Waters' whining all the way to the bank, I've come to the conclusion that the listener does not have to buy in to Waters' monomaniacal view of his lot in life to be bowled over by the songs and how they're presented. "Comfortably Numb," "Mother," "Goodbye Blue Sky" and "Hey You" still sound great after all these years, and kudos to David Gilmour, Nick Mason and the late Richard Wright--as well as Waters himself-- for giving them musical heft. Sonically, the album is magnificent. So, a great package, but as far as concept albums about how lousy it is to be a rock star go, I'll take WISH YOU WERE HERE over this any day. Or, for that matter, Syd Barrett's THE MADCAP LAUGHS. Summary: you never know Overall Rating: Comment: OK OK I'm not a kid see I was 1 years old when the piper hit the streets, but my mind has always been overdeveloped. And I know BADDD!!! music when I smell it: Pink void, eric clapton, Bruise springsteen, all weiner music it is. Hubbard S.

Hubbard Summary: long words rule Overall Rating: Comment: Comfartably complexity conquistador fragrances are all words that are in NO way befitting to this gruesome (albeit somewhat atrocious) CD set. The wall is like an exploding merry-go-round filled with live toads and Chinese liquorice lollies. My favorite CDs of ALL time are: (in no specific order) 1/ OK there are people whoa the sound of Prank but they better be helped, or themselves and abolish this adolescent craving from their gradually developing minds yours faithfully, Senner Folkstowe 11/
