Pink Floyd - The Trial (Live)

Updated audio from "Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980-81". The videos were recorded August 9th, 1980.

[@scottpyles5096]

How complicated this whole story is... It fascinates me how great roger waters is at storytelling. This whole opera came out of Roger's life experiences and he twisted it into a movie and best selling album. Absolutely great.

[@uhtredragnarson8087]

He didn't really come up with it himself. He based it on one of his friends and former band members, Sid's, life.

[@cafi1999217]

+Uhtred Ragnarson he actually said that The Wall was 75% his live, and 25% Syd, Imagination and other people

[@jadedkade]

​@@uhtredragnarson8087 the whole concept for the wall was when Roger was performing live the audience was being roudy and noisy and when he told them to stop they didnt so he told the band to stop and got off stage ( sorry kind of a bad explanation ) then he was told to go see a psychologist and he explained that he just wanted to build a wall between himself and everyone else ( also yes i am aware that this comment is from 3 years ago )

[@Slycoomer56]

The Wall is based on Rogers life and losing his father. Syd barret has nothing to do with this album.

[@Slycoomer56]

Ijeyu He also said that at one point he felt like he was losing his mind.

[@maxkauf]

Every time I hear this song I say to myself, "this must have been a lot of fun to preform live".

[@youreverydaysaltyiowastate5602]

I’m positive it’s a no vocals track played over the loudspeakers in the auditorium. I’m pretty sure they used voiceovers and song tracks for Vera, Bring The Boys Back Home and this. But yes, this must have been a lot of fun to perform live

[@donutlordband24]

it must've been hell for the stage crew to pick up those bricks

[@davidbreen311]

According to David Gilmour, this whole concept was his least favorite thing about Pink Floyd

[@marleenboonstra2386]

Must be incredibly stressful. You can't do it over. The wall falls one time.

There was never any music more simple and complicated than this.

[@Lexwell_Lavers]

Waters has the greatest theatrical vocal range and emotion in rock.... I love Gilmours voice but it it more of the hard rock compliment to Floyd. .

[@Shioumenato]

peter gabriel early genesis

[@V8trickshot]

alpha java it's actually crazy, he is amazing

[@oposoum]

Agreed. But Waters has lost his voice. I guess because forced his voice to sing in high tones closed to his voice limits, over the years lost his highs. I remember when he sang in Pink Floyd's reunion for live 8, the Comfortably Numb, he barely could sing. But Waters' performance in this song will be remembered forever.

[@malikaihoon7337]

oposoum he was sick that night

[@vianditya]

it's because he almost lost his hearing back in 90's (cmiiw), he still can sing in his new album but not live...i guess he needs more concentration and stamina to do so. It's hard to even talk when you couldn't hear.

[@satinsguard]

So the animations existed before the movie.

[@scootywoot499]

Yes, but the animations still had to be redrawn because the tour animations were in a different format

[@maxwellpowell7413]

Yes, and there were actually other animations in the concert that weren't featured in the movie such as the "Is There Anybody Out There?" sequence from Bring the Boys Back Home which features Gerald Scarfe's artwork from Wish You Were Here and Animals. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2a5cqafZa6Gnsk

I want to think I saw this animation for a commercial when they released the album...

[@skovie23232]

I love how roger waters sing, its so deep and crazy, it fits the album really well. He writes the best songs and i think The Wall is the best peice of art made by Pink Floyd

[@RealTorres15]

While i wish a more hd version was released somewhere as the remaster from the film lacked some stuff from what i can see here But I'm grateful to get to see this at all honestly

[@braydenblack763]

You should check out the audience-shot 8mm versions of this show! While not official, the animations can be seen in much better quality…

Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands to ever grace this Earth. Have you ever heard music that can make you visualize so much? This song is no exception; it is a true masterpiece.

It still astonishes me that such a show was possible in the 80s.

[@hudsonhornet-z4e]

I just wish they would release these animations again in their original format because they are some of the best pieces of animation to ever exist. I’m hoping they will finally deliver with the 50th anniversary box set in 2029

Yeah agreed While the movie has remasters they seem to not have as much as this had and had some unfinished shots

Something I noticed about the film for the wall is that it's not accurate to the album storywise. SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS . I warned you In the film, the mother is fine. Pink is the one being ungrateful, while in the album, the mother is horrid. In the film, they shoehorn in the fact that Pink's dad is dead from the war, where, in the album, there's ONE song about that. In the film, they treat Pink like a horrible person, while in the album, he's abused by the people closest to him. In the film, Pink's the villain, but in the album, he's the victim. So there.

@zenrunner5000 the recording was originally meant for the film, sadly the producers didnt think it would be cinematic so they cut it from the original and decided to start from scratch but spice it up with the animations from this concert

The differences between the American audience and English one is quite astounding. If you watch the Nassau Col. vid the audience roars and seems to be having a blast where as the English audience is SO subdued(I do not think they enjoyed it any less though)

I really want to see this version uploaded in HD somewhere. As far as I can find, this is the only video that has the deleted (at least from the movie) animation where the one crowd member screams "Go on Judge, shit on him!" (timestamp is 4:28), as well as the second shot of Pink in the wall before the Judge delivers his verdict (timestamp is 4:41). There's a lot of changes, and, most likely, a few extra seconds of animation missing, from this to the movie, and you can probably spend hours picking apart the live preformance version of this compaired to the movie. I love the old, grungy look this has, but its a shame that the band or their label hasn't uploaded another version of this somewhere.
