THE WALL

I'll give it credit for ambition, but otherwise this album fails to deliver. It's got none of the things that made the Pink Floyd before great, except a few thought provoking lyrics and guitar solos. In parts it's way too commercial and in other parts it's too self indulgent. It's kind of depressing that people's knowledge of Pink Floyd are limited to the radio hits of this album. And the fact that it came after the masterful Animals is just as depressing.
