THE WALL

I gave it 5 stars because it is certainly a must-have rock album. Arguing that an album is not good because it's 'dark' or 'depressing' is just plain stupid. This is Roger and David's last great collaboration, Pink Floyd will hit unbelievable lows from Final Cut and beyond while producing few notable singles, but no concept albums in rock hitory are as worthy to be in your collection as this one.

Pink Floyd has produced flawless experimental music in 'The Wall'. Fans criticize Water and Ezrin (and Pink Floyd in general) for incorporating too many elements in their later recordings and this perhaps explains why "Darkside of thee Moon" has become their most enduring classic.

DARKSIDE OF THE MOON IS NOT PINK FLOYD'S BEST ALBUM, THE WALL IS! I'd have to agree with Waters. 'The Wall' is beautiful music to many ears, it is well-orchestrated and Gilmour's screaming, emotional electric guitar is played as intricately as a stradivarius, whereas Darkside of the Moon, however great, will not be appreciated by as many people. And yes, if you're not looking for some hidden recorded elements, parts of Pink Floyd's albums can be repitiive, but keep in mind that their transitions were revolutionary at the time. 'The Wall' is one of the first real prog rock albums so if u don't have it, u better go out and get it.

Notable tracks on this album are: Mother Don't leave me now Hey You Nobody Home/Vera/Bring the Boys Back Home (all together) Comfortably Numb Run Like Hell and The Trial

The most poular song is of course the Happiest Day of Our Lives/Another Brick in the Wall Part II
