Pink Floyd - Behind the Wall (3/7)

This documentary looks at the conception, design and live shows of The Wall performed by Pink Floyd in 1980 and 1981. It features in-depth 1980s era interviews with Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Nick Mason and shows footage of The Wall performed at Earl's Court in 1980. It also features archival footage of the Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd and discusses how David Gilmour was brought into the band to initially augment their live shows when Syd became unreliable due to his drug problem and how Gilmour ultimately replaced him. A short retrospective of Pink Floyd post-Syd in included. The documentary also discusses is how Roger Waters' concept of The Wall came about and how Pink Floyd, the band, were on the verge of breaking up while performing The Wall concerts. Included are interviews with Mark Fisher (stage designer), Jonathan Park (stage designer), Gerald Scarfe (animation designer and director) and Bob Geldof and Alan Parker in relation to the making of The Wall Movie.

i may be the only one thinking this, but id love to see a documentary on the making of either obscured by clouds or even animals, which i feel are two of fylod's most underrated albums

[argoninja2112]

this November 30th is the thirtieth anniversary of The Wall's release.

my humble prediction is a reissue of the record,

all the "spare bricks",

like What Shall We Do Now? and the music box version of Mother,

maybe an extended version of Run Like Hell,

and When The Tigers Broke Free,

an audio commentary by Roger,

and the Earl's Court concert with the three part documentary which you can find on Youtube.

maybe.

now would be the time for the greatest selling double LP ever.

@ptownshendlove19 roger is a musical genius, and he knows it.

@Xiolablu3 rumors and hearsay, although some unnamed sources have said there's some truth in them.

@chriskoob Animals is my favorite record. Dark Side and Wish You Were Here are tied for second.. I cant even find as much as a live video from the In the Flesh Tour. All I have been able to find of the Animals era was Animals itself and audio of the live stuff.

@chriskoob I agree

[levimoreno]

@chriskoob I agree 100%. They're both amazing albums.

Ignorant? No. Arrogant? Absolutely. But who wouldn't be if you were apart of Pink Floyd?

@chriskoob I would fucking LOVE to see a "making of" of the In The Flesh (Animals) Tour. That's my favorite album and there's almost no footage of that tour, and what there is is really crappy and has no audio. I mean, they had a fucking waterfall of fire! Or I guess, a firefall, but regardless there's no damn footage of it!
