How Pink Floyd Built The Wall - Part One: The Album | Vinyl Rewind

[@VinylRewind]

There was so much to talk about the making of The Wall that it made the most sense to break up the video into three parts, with each focusing on a different aspect of the project. I start this week with the making of the album. Look for parts two and three, the making of the tour and the film, coming soon. Thanks for watching!

[@teddyfurstman1997]

These Pink Floyd Videos are Great. Hope for more about the Tour as well as The Movie version that scared the pants off as a kid. I love it though. Also, Hope for a History of The Residents and Gorillaz.

[@ErikIversen]

I'm glad that you decided to break this up, and I'm looking forward to part 2. This is a fascinating story, and you obviously did your research. Excellent use of visuals and video clips as well.

[@raywt3237]

this is good stuff. would love to see more in-depth looks at albums like this

[@purpleelephant7294]

[@rabinesque]

Okay, did you actually read Comfortably Numb (Vernon's book)? Because it clearly states that Rick did record parts with James Guthrie during the evenings at Super Bear, by Guthrie's own admission. Despite the interpersonal issues, Rick did play on nearly every track of the album. This is one of the myths which continues to be perpetuated regarding the album due to commentary from people who weren't even present at the sessions.

[@kevanbodsworth9868]

I´d be on Waters side if you were just screaming at the stage.

[@SpaceCattttt]

When Pink Floyd were recording The Wall, they actually built a wall around the studio they were in. Brick by brick, they became surrounded by this concrete construction. And by the time they'd finished the album, they found themselves trapped in the studio and couldn't get out. 22 people died when Roger ordered them to fling themselves against the wall, in a desperate attempt to make a crack in it and create an opening. All to no avail, of course. The band only got out because Richard Wright was told he'd be fired from the band after the next tour, and he got so pissed off that he simply pushed his piano through it and went home.

[@teddyfurstman1997]

What are the 22 people who died while making The Wall?

[@SpaceCattttt]

@@teddyfurstman1997 Jesus' 12 disciples, the 3 wise men of Christmas and Snow White's seven dwarfs.

[@stuartmiller7419]

@@SpaceCattttt That's not true. The seven dwarfs were contracted to Walt Disney - Snow White did not own or manage them at any time. They did die as you state, however. She was in the south of France at the time though. Coincidence?

[@SpaceCattttt]

@@stuartmiller7419 They were under contract to Disney, it's true. But Snow White and the dwarfs were also Freemasons who only signed on with Walt in order to usurp the company from within. But they underestimated the power of the mouse house, and were forced to flee to the south of France, where they were mercifully met and sheltered by Roman Polanski. Himself a naughty fiend on the run. But while Mr. Polanski eventually moved on to the safe haven that Switzerland could provide him with, the dwarfs instead decided that it would be wiser to split up in case the law came breathing down their necks. Which it did. The result being that Snow White was burned at the stake for cartoon witchcraft. So the dwarfs contacted The Rescuers and were smuggled across the English channel on the wings of a small squadron of albatrosses. And once in London, they spotted a newspaper ad asking for a school choir to sing backing vocals on a Pink Floyd track, which they immediately answered. And the rest, as they say, is history.

[@stuartmiller7419]

@@SpaceCattttt To be fair, just because THEY say it's history is no real reason to believe them. We all know that the Freemasons determine what is written as history but that it rarely involves facts. Also, I think you'll find that the collective noun for albatrossesses is a rookery, not a squadron.

[@MLennholm]

The irony though is that he ended up being the only Floyd member that actually made money from the tour since he participated as an employed musician while the rest of the band had to suffer the losses (the tour actually lost money due to the extremely costly production).

[@unnamedshadow1866]

@@MLennholm unfortunately all that money ended up wasted in a Fail solo Album and a cocaine rehab. Eventually he agreed to return as a musician in a Momentary Lapse of Reason, found working without Waters was the therapy he needed and fully joined the band for The Division Bell, which IMO is a far better album than Momentary Lapse of Reason.

[@geraldwicker5318]

You can hear Phil Lynott on Thin Lizzy album's call on Snowy White to play his riff.

[@righteousindignation8879]

_Pigs on the Wing_ was originally a single track with a soulful lead break that is quintessential Floyd. Snowy White was the guitarist recorded in that original version.

[@janhanchenmichelsen2627]

A balanced video, not just blaming Roger Waters for the de facto Floyd break up. Waters was undoubtedly a very demanding person who could be rather ruthless. But Rick Wright was a very troubled man, of his own making. His marriage was breaking down and according to different sources, he was nursing a rapidly escalating cocaine habit at the time. Not a good combination.

[@brandonbutler7204]

I think Roger had been down that path before with Syd, for one thing. He'd been in the situation, in his mind, of having to pull things together when someone was going off the rails. For a second thing I don't think Richard's situation flew very well with Roger as a reason for non-contribution. Richard's marriage was breaking down, but Roger had been through the same thing only three years before. Richard was a troubled man, sure -- Roger no less so. Except for Nick they ALL seem like troubled men. That said, Roger was entering a period of his life where he was at his least diplomatic. To put it gently.

[@mashicoleman]

@@brandonbutler7204 Yeah but Roger was being a total ass about it and Rick wasn't he just wasn't contributing too much

[@rivereuphrates8103]

@@brandonbutler7204 good point. Roger had already been through a divorce and managed to pull through with arguably no dip in production or quality.

One of the first rock songs I can remember hearing was "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)". The solo is still one of my all-time favorites. Something that struck me about it recently is that it bears heavy influence from a guitarist I didn't know about until later, Danny Kirwan. Funny that he became one of my favorites before I noticed that. Speaking of Danny, you should check out Fleetwood Mac's 1969 album, Then Play On, of which he wrote half. (the UK version, not the US versions. That version was re-released in 2013 on vinyl and CD)

Good video, well researched and documented. I'm happy to see and hear bits of the Montreal 77 show as I've had to point out that it actually existed to other channels. I do have to add that the problems between Wright and Waters really came to head in the 76 Animals recordings where either Waters was rejecting every idea Wright had or Wright didn't have any ideas in the first place. As per usual, who you choose to believe is the side you take.... though if you listen to 75 shows, Wright's voice was cracking all over the place as he was going through some "things". And in the 77 shows, all he sang was a few backing harmonies. Kind of strange to go from split solo vocals on Time and a duet between him and Waters on Brain Damage to Echoes's duet between him and Gilmour to literally being silenced on the Wall.

[@BlueEyes-gp8lg]

Good observations about Rick and his deterioration as a singer and composer in the mid-late 70's. Should also be noted that Rick just wasn't built personality-wise to deal with Roger like David was. David was mentally tough-enough to stand up to Roger much more often where Rick had a more introverted personality and was hampered by his personal problems. Although even Dave ended up conceding various things to Roger during The Wall sessions, the tour and especially on The Final Cut, where he was essentially a glorified session performer.
