Pink Floyd - Run Like Hell - The Wall Live at Earl's Court 1980 DVD

http://www.tommygunvideo.com

- Loud hiss that was previously on all other versions was removed
- I give this a B+. While not the best quality video it is still good enough to enjoy and is also a 30 year old memory that we are lucky to still have around.

Pink Floyd's live rendition of "The Wall" performed throughout 1980 and 1981 ranks as some of the most spectacular shows ever to be performed in front of an audience. The initial intent of director Alan Parker and Pink Floyd along with Illustrator Gerald Scarfe was to include live footage of "The Wall" shows into the movie version of "The Wall" and some shows were filmed for that specific purpose. But after several screen tests, Roger Waters was removed from the starring role and was replaced with the punk musician Bob Geldof. Since Waters was no longer in the starring role, it no longer made sense for the feature to include Pink Floyd footage, so the live film aspect was dropped. The footage culled from the five Wall concerts at Earl's Court from 13-17 June 1981 that were held specifically for filming was deemed unusable also for technical reasons as the fast Panavision lenses needed for the low light levels turned out to have insufficient resolution for the movie screen. BUT NOW WE HAVE IT HERE. And until something like this is released officially (if ever). We hope you enjoy this concert for it's historic value since we at Tommygun Video figure 30 years is long enough to wait.

I envy beyond words those lucky few who got to see the Wall live with all the original members of Pink Floyd. Seriously.

Pink Floyd are more than a music group, they have become part of earths collective unconscious. wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream....

@stratfat if you buy the wall immersion boxset it has some footage from this show.

@BrianBosboom you're not alone. It's very envying and how I wish they we're the same as what we have right now. Songs that are now on hype are the best for hell. It's a waste of time to listen.
