are you sure what you wrote there makes any sense? LOL

I’m presuming he’s meaning the Roger Water album of The Wall live in Berlin? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Actually, that statement makes Perfect Sense. Though it would actually make even better sense if he were talking about The Final Cut.

An absolute masterpiece in terms of ideas and their execution, musicality, expressivity, and pure emotion. Even if the listener is not absorbing the whole thing at once, he could enjoy just some individual songs. This is one of the very exceptional aspects about 'The Wall' - it works perfectly both as a continuous mammoth piece (and this is surely the way I like to listen to it) or as an album from which one can extract unbelievable songs which are at this point in time, unprecedented classics. And shall we mention the majestic movie that accompanied this achievement of rock music? With all this said, I must admit that I never understood the criticism towards 'The Wall', it is quite glorious and deserves all the praise it gets!


My hero!!! Clap

The Wall today still hits me like it did in '79, I remember coming home from HS for weeks after it came out and doing one thing before anything, spinning The Wall (all 4 sides). It really is like a movie with ups and downs but as a complete movie its easily Best Picture caliber.

When I want to spin it I make sure I am ready to hear all 4 sides.....very rare I will only listen to 1-2 sides.





Sums up the album, in a impressive way imho
Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."



Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…

Figurative language refers to the use of words in a way that deviates from the conventional order and meaning in order to convey a complicated meaning, colorful writing, clarity, or evocative comparison. It uses an ordinary sentence to refer to something without directly stating it.

thank you Captain Obvious, you've saved us all. 
I was only joking, it's even funnier that you got annoyed with what I said (which I did not think it was possible, but anyway). LOL

Cristi was quite clearly joking, so the only one with egg on their face is you. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I find eggs digestible, but only in certain forms.

I do not like green eggs, though - ham or not.

Cristi vs Triptych is looking like it could be the new Cristi vs Paul.

Paul more or less rhymes with Wall, which is eggs in a form I enjoy. I find it easily digestible, and so good that I often come back for seconds. You can’t have any pudding I’d you don’t eat your meat, but honestly Wall is meaty enough to fill me up, without needing any pudding. 👍🏻

Exactly! I meant Roger Waters' The Wall: Live in Berlin album, so what I said makes perfect sense, which makes a nice change. Smile

Yeah, I gave up on vinyl ages ago. The vinyl craze is just a hoax, but don't tell that to my friend Catcher10. LOL  Seriously, you are one of few that I've ever seen disparage The Wall with such disdain!. It's actually kind of refreshing!

It appears Roger Waters' Live in Berlin album has come up against The Wall of indifference from you. Tongue 
 
Not surprisingly, I disagree. It's a brilliant Live album with a well-deserved 5-star rating from me. Thumbs Up

The Wall as a whole is of little worth musically speaking, esp if we compare it to other more SERIOUS Floyd albums. Most people have played the record sales card when arguing about The Wall ! Frankly, I don't care if an album has sold millions of copies around the world....it just means that there are people who like to throw their hard-earned money out the window and not that there are people who really like and appreciate REAL music. But that's all fine with me. All I can say to round up this post is that Syd wouldn't have liked The Wall one single bit :)
