Editorial 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
The Wall Reviews:
two-bit jackass cheap performers!! 
2009-12-08 - These two-bit jackass cheap performers whine and moan a lot. They almost seem intent with their adolescent stance. However, this cannot be a normal state of being! They should either get the professional help that they obviously crave or face criminal charges for letting out ths horrible monster out in the world.

Mother should I build the wall??? 
2009-11-09 - Pink Floyd is in my top four rock groups. The Wall is one of their three best albums. I will enjoy this CD for the rest of "time."
regardless of class a f*scist turd 
2009-11-06 - regardless of class this horrible albeit atrocious cd was made. It is full of whining horrid adolescent songs. It's like being forced to listen to a punk versus German schlager competition.
Had there been one song here half decent my judgment would not be so harsh, but the laughable hilarious lyrics (if that is what you can call these uninspired baby moans).
This album is amongst the most horrible in the world alongside Brintey's Sphears OOH! I did it again and the Neil Diamond songbook.
Good buys:
Silver Apples on Kapp
The music asylum on UA records
Joel Andrews - Paradise bird Golden harp
PF had their day...once
Obscured by clouds is a top nudge album
Ummagumma is and AHM is
Saucerful is if it only wasn't so outdated and sterile.
Thank you so kindly for reading my revue.
