1) Amazon.com Essential Recording
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

1) To much of roger waters is not a good thing   [Rating: 2 out of 5]
There is no doubt that The Wall has been a huge success since it was released in 1979.But I have never been able to consider this a true Pink Floyd album.This is a Waters project,with pink floyd as session musicians.Its boring,depressing,and sloppy.The biggest draw back for me is waters nasal and whiney vocals.Is it any surprise that the biggest hits are the ones Gilmour sang.Its also extremly long and I cant sit through two cds of waters singing.If it wasn't for Gilmour this is probally what Dark Side would have sounded like.

2) Never gets old   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I bought this album when it first came out. I only listen to it when I have time to listen to the whole thing. It's like watching a favorite movie. The sound quality of the instruments and sound effects are amazing. The story is creepy, psychotic, a bit disturbing at times, and just an amazing imaginary masterpiece. Highly recommend this if you are going to occasionally listen to the whole thing.Enjoy,Jmck

3) I LOVE this album!   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
While this album is a bit on the dramatic side and is a rock opera of sorts, it is definitely a Pink Floyd classic, not to be overlooked. So many great songs on this album, a real thrill from beginning to finish. It's just great and any fan of rock/Pink Floyd should have it. It's a timeless classic.

4) Pink Floyd The Wall   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Absolutely awsome. The best Pink Floyd album on the planet. I've worn out 3 albums of the wall in fours years.

5) Masterful!   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
While "Another Brick in the Wall Part 2" may be the most overplayed track in the history of rock n' roll, it does little to diminish the wealth of good material on this album. Many consider this the band's true master work, and they can hardly be blamed. Concept album? Rock Opera? I rarely use those terms, because many disagree about their meaning, but it could be considered either or both of the those, and Waters's song writing really shines on this album because he's able to tell a cohesive story, with all of its ups and downs, over the course of the album's 81 minutes. While the band often alternates between Roger Waters and David Gilmour on vocals, here Waters's impassioned singing, which truly seems tinged by madness, is on display. He's not a great vocalist, and many of these songs are out of his range, but that makes his performance all the more convincing, as he portrays a man slowly going mad with paranoia, xenophobia, and cynicism. As he reaches for notes he can't quite hit without sounding like it's the effort of a lifetime, the listener becomes more and more convinced of the story.
