Roger Waters Explaining The Pink Floyd Album The Wall Brick By Brick

[@NebMunb]

Well, when Roger grew up, and went to school, there were certain teachers who would make fun of that shnoz any-way they COOUUULD.

Everybody can relate to that experience of a toxic relationship with a half of a man teacher

[@tarkus123dave]

Still fascinating thanks for posting. Listened to this live on TFRS (RIP TOMMY) and it feels like only yesterday. Saw The Wall 4 times at Earls Court. Just could and still cannot get enough of this masterpiece. Again thanks💓

With respect to you Mr. R. W.

I used to have a cassette with this on, which I taped off the radio at the time. Nice to be able to hear it again, not sure where the tape went.

I am producing a retrospective film on Roger Waters. Could I please ask permission to maybe use a small clip of this video? Kind regards Barry

[@PinkFloydCollectors]

No problem

[@FloydGuy1980]

Thanks, that's much appreciated. If I use anything, I will credit it to you. Kind regards Barry

Roger is a genius that flew under the radar

[@PinkFloydCollectors]

Not sure, I think a lot of people in the music industry recognises him as a genius

[@slob5041]

You can hear his depression

[@nectarinedreams7208]

That's just young Rog, the OG emo

[@flutter8712]

​@@nectarinedreams7208With a LLDoB thumbnail, that's quite ironic my friend. Isn't Peter Gabriel the first one?

[@jimangela4589]

I want to disagree that Hey You doesn't fit where originally placed after Comfortably Numb. It doesn't fit at the beginning of side 3 if you follow the lyrics and Pink's progression from being comfortable in his isolation, physically, but mentally his mind begins to rebel. I think Ezrin wanted it moved because it is an excellent stand alone single that can be played as a single by being at the beginning of side 3 on the album.

[@nectarinedreams7208]

I always thought it would fit after Is There Anybody Out There? as Pink has quickly realised he is all alone behind his wall and has instant regret, before settling in for the long haul like, "Shit, I'm here now. Might as well watch some old war movies here behind my wall."

[@jimangela4589]

No, it has to come after Pink's transitioning to wannabe nazi. Being "awakened" by the doctor not only compels him to perform, he realizes his mind is taking him to really dark places. Places he doesn't want to go. But perform he must.

[@JohnnyPaton]

Unfortunately a lot of gigs are still the same as Roger describes. Most people are there for the beer (and cocaine these days) and make the gig a nightmare for the artists and the audience members who want to actually enjoy the music. Although I think it’s a phenomenon limited to certain countries. I saw Roger last year twice. Firstly in Milan where the crowd was respectful and sober and quiet. Then I saw him in Glasgow where the crowd was drunk, boorish and annoying beyond belief.

Sadly true
