The Wall by Pink Floyd (CD, Dec-1997, 2 Discs, Columbia Brazil)

This is considered to be a quintessential rock opera concept classic which tells the story of ' Pink ' a manic depressive rock star.

The songs flow together and some have of course become stand alone ‘ hits ‘

The story follow Pink’s life covering such topics as his mother, suicidal notions, schoolmasters, dysfunctional relationships, communism, war, music fans and beyond.

Released in 1979 as a 2 record set and followed up by the classic movie.

This cd will draw you in and take you on an emotional rollercoaster. From lows ( depression ) to highs ( excitement )and all points in between. The more I hear it the more I seem to get out of it. The lyrical genius of Roger Waters combined with the musical magic of the rest of the band never tires.

The experience is best of when listened to in it's entirety, preferably on headphones or high end equipment.

A superb piece of progressive rock.
