The Wall DVD is totally awesome. You should get it.

What do people enjoy more. The Movie or the Album?

Tough to say for me. The movie really helped my understanding of the album, and its pretty cool. However, they seriously **** up some of the songs in the movie (like Mother) Some of my friends prefer the movie, some the album. Maybe if you can find it at a video store, rent it, and then see if you wanna buy it?

No, I've seen the movie I think its great I was just wondering what you thought.:)

movie is nice......the abulm comes quite incomplete without it

Oh... sorry, misunderstood you. I dunno. They're really different, so its hard to compare. I mean, from a purely musical standpoint, the album is better. But the movie does have the whole visual aspect as a head start.

I like the extra tracking they added to the movie as well.

[QUOTE=ledfloyd_fan]I've just discovered the awesomeness that is Not Now John. Amazing song-I'd never really given The Final Cut a fair chance before. I am also listening to Obscured by Clouds more now-very good album.[/QUOTE]

The first 2 songs on Obscured by Clouds are great.

Yeah that's true.

Also in the movie Bob Geldof sings In the Flesh? and In the Flesh

Yeah. Mother was absolutely butchered in the movie, though.

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]Yeah. Mother was absolutely butchered in the movie, though.[/QUOTE]
Yeah.

Too bad.

They also added in When the Tigers broke free to the movie and its on the Final Cut,.

I don't raelly like When the Tigers Broke Free. Not a huge fan of The Final Cut for the most part.

I have not heard much of the Final Cut or the Division Bell. I hear mixed things about them, so what are you opinions?

[QUOTE=Livewired]What do people enjoy more. The Movie or the Album?[/QUOTE]

Well the movie has that one extra song after Empty Spaces that I really like but is not on the album, but then doesn't the Album have a few songs that the DVD doesn't contain as well? Well, either way, their both essential for the Pink Floyd fan. :)

Time to pretend I know what I'm talking about, the movie is more artistically appealing...

Who cought PF Off The Record? Uncle Joe Benson does OTR on many rock stations throughout North America (maybe europe). Anyways I cought them on it on my rock station last night (Chom 97.7) it was very interesting.

Although they devoted 45 minutes of an hour the The Wall and like one sentence to WYWH and Animals. :sad:

^^ I think cause its The Wall's 25 anniversary. WYWH and especially Animals far surpass the wall imo.

Fnal Cut is pretty good if you like the wall. Buy the division bell, you won't regret it.

What about Momentary lapse of Reason.

I havent heard it.:(

[QUOTE=zeppelinfan2k3]Fnal Cut is pretty good if you like the wall. Buy the division bell, you won't regret it.[/QUOTE]

The division bell is really good and so is a momentary lapse of reason

Everything they did is good, but AMLOR isn't as fantastic as other stuff.

i didnt like a momentary lapse in reason... it was weird for me

It was probably different because w/out Waters, David Gilmour got to do whatever the hell he felt like doing

The Gilmour sound is much better than the Waters sound IMO...The Wall (a la waters sound just did not seem floydian. Meddle is the floyd sound. :)

Thing is, Gilmour has never been as strong of a songwriter as Roger. But when it comes to the musical aspect Gilmour > Roger, every time.

I agree, Gilmour lacks in writing.

I picked up the Live in Pompeii, and wow. if you havent heard it, buy it. one of these days is badas*, echoes is my favorite. they added some cgi and made it much more of a stoner video than ever before.

In my opinion the most haunting Pink Floyd song has got to be Jugband Blues. Basically Syd singing about being schizo for a few minutes.

how exaclty does the wizard of oz with DSOTM work?

[QUOTE=MustkillLois6712]how exaclty does the wizard of oz with DSOTM work?[/QUOTE]
I personaly havent done it but you are supposed to start DSOTM when the Lion roars for the thrird time or something.

ok thx. i just found DSOTM in my dad's cd cabinet. so i figured what the hell ill try it out

[QUOTE=MustkillLois6712]how exaclty does the wizard of oz with DSOTM work?[/QUOTE]
On the third roar of the MGM lion, you start the album. I think.

i use to be scared to listen to pink floyd because all i listened to was the begginings of all the songs in dsotm

If you can hear this, you are dying.

*gasp* GIR!!!

...sorry off topic

I was recently having a discussion with somebody about pink floyd. He swore blind that pink floyd were an "old school punk band". Now usually I tend not to worry about labels as they tend to carry images with them and make music more of an elitist club than something for the enjoyment of the masses, but this statement confused me. To me pink floyd had always been prog rock, seemingly an almost complete opposite to anything punk. I asked him in what way he felt they were a punk band, but he seemed to think the answer was far to obvious to bother repeating to me, and then directed me here, telling me I'd learn something.

Now I don't consider myself an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but since I first heard my dad's copy of DSoTM so many years ago I've been getting my ears into everything of theirs I could find, but apparently I'm missing something. So, have I just missed an entire collection of little known pink floyd punk, or am I just so ignorant that I haven't realised I was listening to punk all these years?

Your friend is a dunce. He pointed you here to prove himself wrong I guess.

not friends ;P

can anyone here see any form of old school punk in pink floyd? I tried, I can't.

Maybe in some of Gilmour's, and Water's bridges... such as that short, funky riff in Another Brick In The Wall, Part 2

Barrett is so UNDERtrated, IMO
