Let's give Nick Mason some love. His drumming on this record is silky smooth!
ABSOLUTELY...!
For sure. As a longtime PF fan, I’ve never quite known which drum parts were Nick’s and which were someone else. I think there was an additional drummer or two at parts? I could be wrong.
@@mikewatts867 I think that happened on The Final Cut album when Waters was control trippin hard....
He's like the quotation marks to the phrases.
@@mikewatts867 Nick isn’t the drummer on Mother it was Jeff Porcaro, the drummer for Toto that drummer that track
I am so fortunate that when this album came out I was 18. I have listened to this album in its entirety so many times I could not count them! THIS ALBUM MUST BE LISTENED TOO IN ITS ENTIRETY!!
I just turned 20 when it came out. Got one of the first albums ! Wore it out!!!!!!!
I was 7😍😍🤣🤣and i loved it..i may not have completely understood the entire album..but i loved singing these lyrics at school😍😍
I love Gilmour’s solos. Not only are they memorable, they sing. You can actually sing the solos because he lets notes linger and breathe. I listen to his playing and am reminded of the way a singer or sax player has to pause for a breath. Another great video guys!👍
do you know Gilmour's '78 solo album...?
Absolutely, I was in high school when it came out and was taken in completely by his version of “There’s No Way Out of Here”. After I bought it I found myself going back over and over to “Mihalis” and “Cry in the Street”. I like it way better than About Face which for my taste was done in by horrible 80’s style production.
@@chrissimon9879 Great album..! I like "Raise My Rent", "So Far Away", "I Cant Breathe Anymore" and "No Way" as well...
I agree with you on About Face.
You two are killing this reaction game with Pink Floyd!
You mentioned that you've noticed "many references to children" in this album. So far you are certainly correct. That's b/c this album, in short, tells a story of various factors which led or can lead to isolation (aka the wall). Early in the album, we hear about an overbearing hovering mother. A child who has lost his father. Then we hear about militant teachers and other school related emotional traumas. All of this so far has indeed made reference to children. The album will next move to relationship issues, gilfriends and infidelity issues, so less children references as it progresses to young adulthood issues.
Well said, brilliantly put sir 👏 🎉
Almost as if they figured out at an early age the evils and fallacies of ‘the system’ and are doing their best to warm the young rookies coming up thru the school yard ranks before they reach adulthood (brainwashed)
I swear it feels like Christmas time when I watch you guys react to Pink Floyd ❤😊🙏
The wall is a concept album about a fictional rock and roll character called Pink in part based on Roger's life who builds a metaphorical wall between himself, and society because of various setbacks in his life.
Roger was born in 1943 during WWII his father was killed at the battle of Anzio in Italy in 1944 he hated his school years.
To me, still their best album and, by far, one of the best albums ever released!
@@tnightwolfyeah I see a lot of people who say that tdsotm is their best but I’ve always preferred the wall. Dark side of the moon is incredible but I love how the wall tells a story
The wall represents the isolation we build to protect ourselves the harsh realities of life.
The wall itself is not physically represented in the same way in the movie as it was in concert.
We, I had the opportunity to see the wall concert in 1980. The production of the concert was over the top, literally. They built a 30ft high wall around them throughout the concert tearing it down toward the end. We watched on the big round screen with puppets above the wall. Perhaps the largest produced concert tour ever.
They had a large would appeared to be at least a 50 member Orchestra accompanying. And equally as large mixed chorus and a boys chorus.
We again seen them perform in '88 most of the Wall along with their other past albums in a 4-Hour plus concert. Also performed with Orchestra, mixed and boys' chorus they did not construct a wall but they did fly the pig.
( As they did when we watched the animals concert.)
The first night. Yes the first concert was a sellout so they did an unexpected encore the following night. that concert also sold out within 3 hours.
And yes we went again.
But they did not allow them to fly the Pig and the music was turned down. It seems they were heard it the first night over the Jets within the Sky Harbor Terminal. The neighbor said he could hear them outside and we lived over almost 40 miles away.lol
If I remember right this song is where they feed the children into the meat grinder in the movie. Yeah you really need to watch it.
Nothing like watching an animated flower have sex.lol
But .. not as nasty as it sounds.
Actually what animation there is, is as mind blowing as the music.
✌️ 🤠🏞️🐂
The story takes place in the mind of Pink (loosely based on Roger Waters and Syd Barrett) as he reflects on his life from birth to major rock star and how / why he has isolated himself within an impenetrable emotional wall. The album is circular beginning with the phrase "...we came in?" and ending with "Isn't this where..."
I was 17 when this came out and it always reminds me of my first speeding ticket that I got. My girlfriends and I were on our way to a concert with this song blasting and I didn't see the cop right behind me! whoops! lol
Floyd developed new recording techniques for this album.
They created an imitation head with mike's in the ear canals to catch the way we hear sound.
Real innovators these guys.
Holophonics wasn't developed by Floyd but rather Hugo Zuccarelli. He was asked by Waters to work with the band after making them a demonstration. The system wasn't used on a Floyd album until Mason recorded sound effects for The Final Cut.
@@bookhouseboy280 isn't that what I said?
The band was looking for new ways to record music.
@@onemotherpucker I wasn't disagreeing with that, just pointing out that they didn't actually create the imitation head and that it (Holophonics) was used only on The Final Cut.
I was lucky enough to see Pink Floyd perform the Wall in 1980 in Los Angeles. They only toured a handful of cities. It remains the best concert I’ve ever attended.
I was there too - Sports Arena - mail order tickets
@@cazgerald9471 That’s right. We had to mail in!
First time I heard this song I was in college. About 5 of us were in a wooded area partaking of some good weed and just chilling to the good music. That damn helicopter came on and we all were looking into the trees looking for the cops!! Freaked us out!!
It's probably one of the most iconic guitar solo ever.
The kids singing it is just badass
Bought "The Wall" back in '79 at the record store in my then military station at the Essentho barracks (was a RADAR operator for the 62nd Artillery HAWK air defence Delta Battery in then West-Germany) and these parts are among the 'best' of the album. The reason why this album is still ranked in my top-hundred. Got close to twenty-seven thousand records, so it's getting crowdy up there. Thanks lads. You've got to stop moving up my appreciation ladder cuz I'm running out of rungs.
Unbelievably, that was a one-take guitar solo.
Yes. It was also played on his '50s Gibson Les Paul goldtop with P-90 pickups, instead of his trusty Strat.
I don't think that's true. I've seen a session musician talk about how he helped Gilmour with the solo.
@@Cnut_the_grape Yes, Lee Rittenour helped in the writing of the final 8 bars (after DG struggled to figure out where to go after the high bend.) All solos are fleshed out before recording. It was a one TAKE recording.
My favorite thing about this is the transition from the first song to another brick part II. Been a Pink Floyd fan my whole life but until a few years ago I had always thought it was some form of sound effect, but is in fact Roger Waters inhale screaming.
I saw the Floyd perform the wall at Earls Court, London in 1980 and it was one hell of an experience!
Animals 77 Cleveland Oh & M.L.R. in the Pontiac silver dome ! Greatest show on Earth !
An independent theater in my area played this movie every Saturday night at midnight for years. We'd experiment with something different each time we went. Idk how many times I went there. It was just the thing to do every Saturday. Great times😎😎
We don't need no thought control...... love your reactions , keep progressing and stay cool.✌️
In sixth grade, at my mischievous lead, the whole class began singing this song when our teacher stepped out for a minute. She came back in and not one person stopped singing. We were having a moment. 😂 She was disgusted with our brazen smart-assery, but it was a very, very cool moment in a classroom in a small Texas town in the 1970's. 😎
I love hearing what you guys have to say about the music you're listening to. Pink Floyd is my absolute favorite and Steely Dan is right up there near the top with them. I recently discovered the YT channel Virgin Rock. The woman's name is Amy and she's got degrees in music as well as being a musician herself and a teacher. She's only listened to classical music her whole life and is starting to listen to some rock, and she's going through The Wall song by song and giving her perspective, which I've been finding very interesting. It's definitely worth checking out.
Amy is amazing … especially with her analysis of The Wall ! She actually opened up so many things about this work that I never noticed before and I had the advanced fab club copy when it came out. Her channel is a gem for sure !
@@jprph1 Same. She's given me a whole new appreciation for it.
That We don’t need no education is one of the hardest things ever written
The year this came out November 1979, I played this album start to finish three times a day with my two college room mates. I saw all five shows they played at Nassau Coliseum in New York in February of 1980. You have to imagine the stage craft, the hundred foot wide wall built brick by brick, the crashing plane inflatable pig, and characters and animated films projected onto the wall. Nothing like it.
Very quick breakdown of the narrative:
The album is about alienation, using the physical metaphor of a wall. Every trauma, every painful event is a brick. The story follows a fictional rock star named “Pink” but is basically Roger Waters. By this point he pretty much held 90% of the artistic control over the band, and this story is very much his own personal story.
Roger’s father was killed in Italy in WWII when Roger was still a baby, that is the first brick in the wall. “…a snapshot in the family album, daddy what else did you leave for me?”
The second brick is Roger’s unhappy experience at school. The male teachers who had not served in the war carried around a lot of shame and guilt about surviving when so many good men died… and they took out that frustration and shame on their young students… “no dark sarcasm in the classroom, teachers leave them kids alone”.
Hope that helps a little.
Gotta see the movie. Maybe make an edited reaction vid to it with selected songs. The entire album is in it with a couple of extra songs. The singer is actually the actor who was singer for the Boomtown Rats, Bob Geldorf - went on to organise Live Aid for Africa.
"Hey You" was not in the movie. Bob Geldof plays Pink in the movie but the Floyd does all the singing (though never actually appearing in it), save 3 tracks that were given over to Bob.
The sound of the police helicopter with an officer shouting through a bull horn that kicks this off reminds me of one of the first times I ever listened to The Wall. Pink Floyd dropped The Wall in 1979. "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" was the lead single from the album. I was twelve and almost half-way through eighth grade. The song was huge back then, plastered all over the radio. It shot to the top of the charts around the world -- U.S., Europe, South America, Australia, South Africa, in nearly every country that that wasn't ruled by communists. I bought myself a copy of the album sometime in the spring of 1980. I remember because one sunny day three or four of my buddies and I ditched school at lunch to sneak over to my house to listen to it. I lived three blocks away from school and our school lacked fences so it was fairly easy to leave campus when there were no adults around. When the passage with the police helicopter arrived we had the record cranked up so loudly that one of my buddies totally freaked out over it. He was so nervous about ditching school that he mistook that sound effect for the real thing and thought we were busted! We laughed about it and poked fun of him the way teens do, but we took his paranoia as a cue to pack up and head back to school before lunch time ended so we wouldn't get caught. Paranoia befitting the album!
Thank God. You did another Floyd song
New appreciation for that one even tho I’ve heard it a thousand times
This song created quite a stir and was banned in certain areas. A portion of the children's choir from a nearby school close to the studio were covertly selected. Believing, justifiably, that the prim and proper students wouldn't be given permission to perform in an anti-establishment protest song, they practiced in secret before sneaking out to the studios to record the track
I am older than the two of you combined, plus some. I was a teenager when bands like Pink Floyd, Yes, and Genesis were just starting out, and while I was always partial to the latter two, listening to your reactions of Pink Floyd has motivated me to give them another listen. That said; make sure you put Yes's Awaken and The Gates of Delirium on your to-do list; in my opinion they are the pinnacle of prog-rock.
Released August 6 1982. My 12th birthday. 👍🏼👍🏼
This album came out when I was in high school. This was our anthem.
One of the first albums I ever bought as a 12 yr old this blew my ears off been a Floyd fan ever since. Gilmour's solo is one of the best I ever heard on this song.
#The Wall was released in 1979 .. "The eighties?" .. Very close guess. I was a freshman in HS. 😎.. The album is and always will be a classic. We had such great and terrific music back in the days. I'm talking pre~1990.
This is friggin awesome, you guys are putting a smile on my face, watching you "discover" this album! Love your PF reactions!
Another Concept Album for you, guys. 1979. This is a double Album. (4 sides on Vinyl).
And it’s a story from beginning to end.
You’re right about there is a movie. Starring Bob Geldof. 🎶❤️🎶
After listening to the Wall ever since it came out when I was in HS, I just now realized that Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 2 has a disco beat to it.
Great reaction guys. Buckle your seatbelt the bricks 🧱 are coming to build the wall.❤️✌️🌼
Gotta check out the video. Takes the song even further!
now that i think of it, i can't think of any other songs where the singers howl
As George Taxi mentioned, let's send some love Nick Mason's way, if you focus on him he is just tearing it up with not only the main beat but percussion accents that are different and interesting. You would think no one in this band could be underrated but damn, he is such a great among other greats. Guess that is part of the reason why everyone loves Floyd once they actually listen to them, top 3 band ever for me. 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
The Wall (double album) is just an entire incredible experience from start to finish! If you add the VHS/DVD on top of that, then it just becomes a timeless masterpiece on any level!
Love it, keep 'em coming!
A lot of change with the music from the 70s to the 80s is that recording technology and studio equipment became better and musical gear and effects and keyboard technology exploded and studio recording boards and tape machines could recorded more separate tracks from 2 track and then 4 track of the 60s to 8 track to 16 and 24 in the 70s and 32 to 36 to 48 in the 80s . It became easier and way cheaper for bands in the studio to add more layers to the music and the sound quality of the recording improved drastically giving the illusion that their music had changed when in it hadn't .
As far as the complete soundscape that this album will create for you to take you on an audio trip, this is like having all of The Lord of the Rings movies mashed together into one sonic ride that is fed to you in an audio hallucination that flows in one ear and out the other. I hope you're strapped in. Back in the day we would light some incense, burn some herb, put the headphones on, and lay there listening to this front to back in the dark. Also, regarding your comments that this song sounded like they wanted to catch up with the 80s sound; disco was at its height at the time and their producer, Bob Ezrin, thought they needed a single that could be played in the dance clubs. The band was vehemently against doing this song- or at least releasing it as a single with that "4 on the floor" disco beat; but Ezrin talked them into it. It became their biggest selling single, and their only #1 in both the UK and USA.
Bob Ezrin should be in the RR HoF!
What you're describing sounds like the previous 4 Floyd albums. The Wall is not any more hallucinatory than Dark Side or WYWH....if anything it's less so
@@timcardona9962 yes and no. I think Dark Side is probably "poppier" than the others (if such a word can be used with PF albums without angering the gods). While the previous mentioned are all hallucinatory just like The Wall, The Wall is on a slightly different level in that it is (a) so much longer, and (b) so much heavier (darker) that it brings you to a different emotional depth. I'm not saying it's better, and it is not my favorite; but I'd say all in all it is a more powerful ride than the others.
The album is basically about Roger Waters life as a child and a young adult. He grew up shortly after WW2 and England was still digging out.
And the death of his father in WWII .
He lost his grandfather in WW1 too. How's that for being heavy.
@@craftiestdudewould’ve been crazy if the uk had been involved in the Vietnam war and roger himself ended up getting drafted
I really had the idea it was about a person with duel personalities hence why some of the scenes in the movie depicted him as a sort of facist leader and others as a depressed dude and The trial was about exposing the other personality before his peers hence "TEAR DOWN THE WALL!"
You guys bring me joy!
Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant 👏
Already during the creation of this album there was a huge tension in the band. Roger Waters fired keyboardist Rick Wright and there was a huge creative and personal animosity between him and David Gilmour. Producer (and excellent musician) Bob Ezrin deserves enormous credit for the quality of this double album. Without him, the album probably wouldn't have been made at all. He was the constant catalyst for the two main members' disputes (Nick Mason was also constantly trying to reconcile with everyone). Ezrin always somehow managed to come to some sort of compromise between Waters and Gilmour. Interesting fact about Another Brick in the Wall pt. 2: Waters had this song figured out in a completely different way. Ezrin tried to pitch him the idea of a children's choir, but Waters wouldn't hear of it. Nevertheless, Ezrin secretly sent a sound engineer to a nearby school to find a class to sing the part. He mixed it himself in the studio and later played it for Waters. He was so surprised at how good it sounded that he finally agreed. The song soon became a #1 hit on the worldwide charts as Ezrin released it as a single. By the way, at any mention of this song, all the members of Pink Floyd feel uncomfortable and very ashamed of it - after all, it's a "disco" hit and that's not something such a famous and classic rock band wants to hear much about ;-)...
Let's be careful here. I've never heard any of them speak of being ashamed of this song. It remained a staple of both Pink Floyd and Rodger Waters solo concerts. Another Brick in the Wall parts 2&3 practically opens the concert on Waters' current European tour. They are the next two songs following the show opener.. a revamped "Comfortably Numb". This is probably the most popular song in their entire catalog. They are not ashamed of it.
Great guitar work! Love watching you guys listen and dissect the tune! Some great Gilmore solos on this album, it’s a masterpiece to me.
Part 2 is the most played version of the song . Album came out in 1979 and is a concept album , kind of a rock opera. You can watch the movie which came out in 1982.
The 1979 album "The Wall" is simply a legendary album! Another Brick In The Wall!!!
You guys give me such a good chuckle. 🙏🍁
this was pink floyd's only #1 song. glad you're getting to hear it within the context of the story of the wall. it would help to see the movie,but remember the album came first and for a few years that's all we had. so hearing the album first is the genuine way to experience this masterpiece,although it wouldn't hurt to research the story. it is rather complex.
"If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding! How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?!"
Ninth Grade. Anticipation that the new Pink Floyd album was coming out. Me and my friends were very skeptical as to how Pink Floyd could come out with something great when their other albums were so amazing. But they did it. Interactive concerts with a wall being built on stage and a full length movie with Sir Bob Geldoff. Masters.
In England , this was the last No. 1 of the seventies . Very apt. Also their first single for 13years
Everybody is _killing it_ on this album. Production is wild, bass is wild, drum grooves kill, keyboards kill, guitars soar. There was pretty intense beef within the band at this time, and out from it came this gem. Seems like you're listening to it straight through, which - like Dark Side and Animals - is the best way to do it.
You diffently have to find "Brit Flod" !! The kids choir is actually performed by a kids choir , on stage, in the same skit format, amazing to see
I do believe the wall came out before their other albums, dark side of the moon etc
Genius. Loved your response.
Gotta watch the movie!
Producer Bob Ezrin , told Gilmour to go out to some night clubs and listen to current music , tail end of disco . Gilmour wasn’t thrilled but he did it , and you’re listening to the result …
They did the "funky disco" feel for the " kids" feel i would suspect ... But that feel was well established from fairly early 70s ,Dancing in the clubs, and this got played at some alongside Abba and Funky Town songs ,,,,,,
There are 3 parts to this song. The premise of this album is a Rock and Roll star who cracks and has a breakdown and looks back at his life and different periods of his life that led up to his meltdown.
Could be my favorite part of this album
There are several riffs that are repeated throughout this album. See if you can spot them all. :D
This is an incredible work of art. Add the visual of the movie to it, and man, what an epic piece of classical art, in all phases. The movie came out a little more than 2 yrs after the album. The album dropped when I was a sophomore in HS, the movie came out after I had graduated early & moved cross-country.
Don't worry about not getting it on the first go-round. None of us did. What the hell's a 16 yr old kid gonna know about a lot of the stuff referenced herein. After multiple listenings, though, one figures it out, even if one is just a kid. Still lacked the appreciation of many of the finer points.
Strap in, fellas! This is a helluva ride...kinda scary at times! 😮😮😮
My childhood ♡♡♡♡♡
And thus you’ve officially started an epic journey to the most cinematic album made ever. Please look into the perfect woven lyrics, like for eg in the song The Thin Ice, that’s basically Roger explaining the newborn the reality of life. And that piece is written too beautifully. Next song is Mother, another acoustic epic after wish you were here
I’m so happy you got it on TH-cam enjoy
It’s a shame that you can’t React, to a whole side at one time it would help you understand the album a lot better
The Movie is More like a Video of the Songs telling you about the song. See what they were thinking 🤔 about when they wrote the Album.... Explains a lot of the Songs and what life was like in the 40's and 50's when they were kids growing up...
The live show has a scaled down helicopter take off from stage. Quite a spectacle.
During the “In the flesh” tour supporting the Animals album Roger Waters lost it and cussed out the crowd and that whole event was the brainchild of “The Wall” album and movie.
Check out the LIVE version of Another Brick in the Wall from the PULSE CONCERT.
came out 9/7/1982
Dammit! Now I gotta’ go back and see if y’all started a “Wall” series….Sheeeeet!
I was ten when this came out.
I thought they were saying, "no Dukes of Hazzard in the classroom!"
It's Dark Sarcasm...but I think I prefer mine.
It was made in the early 70's .
They weren’t chasing anybody in the 80s they were the four runners of that sound which later with develop further in the 80s
This song and mother are similar. There was a running thread in a lot of Pink Floyd songs they talk about the walls we build up around us, that society builds up around us, that her parents and schools buildup around us. .
Killing our individual, spirits and freedom and creativity, and just turning out people just smart enough to be able to work, but just dumb enough to fall for the system and not realize that the whole big ball of wax is being run by the upper echelon, rich and powerful.
It’s very relevant even for today maybe even especially for today with what’s going on .
I’ll just leave it at that …
this was before the eighties ...and in fact still stands out from anything else to date because of the subject matter they put right out front..no subtle references....the seventies were a very album orientated rock radio and pop was very seperate...floyd took their rock opera to mainstream...much like the who did with tommy ...floyd is artistry
Yeah Bob gandalf really does a good job in the movies it's really worth a look see I saw it in a theaters rock on guys
Also I will say I’ve always found it funny that Another brick in the wall part 2 was the biggest commercial success. Considering the song is about churning out the same people it’s funny they chose a disco beat to do it for this song. It’s almost a commentary on the music industry and how they only want you to make safe radio successfull songs.
I thought it was "Comfortably Numb" that was the biggest commercial success.
@@2869may it definitely might. Comfortably Numb is long so I figure they cut the song down for radio play but Another brick in the wall is already a shorter song. I just feel that hear Another brick in the wall pt 2 on the radio more often than Comfortably Numb
@@scalisque5403 I can see that, "Hey You" was played quite a bit where I'm at as well.
@@2869may I love all those songs but none of that prepared me for actually listening to the album. Empty spaces/Young lust has always been underrated imo but I can’t stop thinking about side 4. My favorite part of that Album
@@scalisque5403 It's so hard to pick a favorite from so many great songs... But I really love "Waiting for the Worms"...! "Vera" is one that I'm kinda surprised I like so well...
"Your Possible past" and "A Gunners Dream" from The Final Cut should have made the "cut" on to The Wall in my opinion...
Hey Bros, ingenious way to play a Pink Floyd album by stringing the videos together... others will copy this technique soon. 😎
This alos has "disco" elements if u listen. Those drums could go with .Another one bites the dust & several other songs from that time
Hey guys. You're doing it right. Listen to the album first. Most fans did it the same way. In fact radio executives might have a heart attack now, knowing the day this album dropped lots of stations played the whole album all day long.
I don’t know if you guys partake in any substances, however I’d suggest something, (drink, THC, edible, etc.) when you watch The Wall movie. Can’t wait to see your reaction!
The Brick in the wall is another portion of the wall in a relationship has been added because of some action
In other words, as in most Pink Floyd albums, you must listen from beginning to end.. then you will get why it is our new age opera, there is a story and lesson laid out for you to ponder.. thanks guys, do 'Animals' full album or 'Wish You Were Here' one time, on your channel or not, beginning to end, in my opinion both their most eloquent albums, and you won't have to wonder.. Which one is Pink? (:
Guys...Floyd isn't 60's, 70's or 80's. They're Pick Floyd and that's it!
I remember the movie being trippy
You should watch the movie. It's epic!
Another brick in the wall of withdraw
They had a bit of a court battle over this one.
No, it's. 1978 Disco beat. According to the band
You need to do a little research into the concept of the album, and the movie is a masterpiece. Just a little backstory and it all makes sense. You guys got the best reactions going, love how into the music you are. Keep rocking it.
Yeah, we always used to say another prick at the mall
You guys should do a reaction to the movie. love your channel
A mostly under rated double record set. For me it’s like standing onto of Mt. Everest. One of the greatest records of all time and being a double record set, maybe the greatest . With todays music, achieving this level of music will never be achieved again. Pink Floyd the Wall forever. Seen them in 94.
Underrated??? It's been christined the best concept album ever made by many music publications. Often referred to as a masterpiece.
I was thinking on how other Pink Floyd lovers, this record usually does not rank like dsotm, or wish you were here. But, for me I totally agree with you. A master piece of mega proportions.
