Pink Floyd - 09) Young Lust

Pink Floyd's The Wall (1979) stands as one of Pink Floyd's greatest achievements, as well of one of the greatest achievements in rock music and live concert production. The album spawned a tour, a film, a book of the film (now quite collectible), and eventually an all-star revival concert in Berlin, and finally in 1999 a double live album. But before The Wall was a film, a concert, or even an album, The Wall was just an idea... an idea under construction. The Wall went through at least two "demo" stages. The first was a crude recording of Roger Waters strumming his guitar and singing alone. Presented by Waters at the same time as another concept called The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking, Waters' first demo - still uncirculated even today - was deemed unlistenable by the rest of the band, but they felt it had potential. The Hitchhiking demo was set aside, but The Wall demo was developed further. Many writing sessions later, Pink Floyd - probably with assistance from Bob Ezrin - recorded a second, more complete demo. The lyrics were not polished, and neither was the music. Thankfully, lyrics like "I am a physician/ who can handle your condition/ like a magician" would be entirely discarded and rewritten before the songs were finally committed to tape in a studio, but the rough lyrics and the risky musical experiments which appeared in that second demo have finally made it to the public. These demo tapes have circulated among just a very few collectors since about 1999. Now it is available for all fans. This recording presents the entire 'work in progress' in the best sonic quality available on CD.

can someone please tell me how much the box set for immersion of the wall costs?



[BlazefireBootlegs]

@TheKeytoRock $150 to possible $200. These do not come cheap.

@BlazefireBootlegs holy....wow im gonna have to mow some lawns this summer to get THAT much money. DSOTM is probly the most expensive, though. thanks :D

[BlazefireBootlegs]

@TheKeytoRock Nope The Wall is. I got my Dark Side box for about $120

[Joseph8188]

Any idea where i can buy this "special additon of the wall"?

[BlazefireBootlegs]

@Joseph8188 There are two ways: 1) If you look up Pink Floyd - Under Construction and download it off some website or 2) On February 28th there is a box set of the wall that comes out. Six CDs that this on it, the album itself, the live album that came out in 2000, and I think a documentary of the live show back in 1980-81. Also when it "Officially" comes out it might possibly sound better than this but I can't be sure. I hope this helps!

[EDOM666DEVORE]

@BlazefireBootlegs freakin things come with marbles and other cool stuff though its well worth it see thats the way you get to sell albums make the cases and covers and extra easter eggs then ppl wont burn cds all the time they will want the cool stuff too
