Album Details

Pink Floyd's Brilliant Rock Opera, The Wall, Reaches New Audiophile Heights: QRP-Pressed 180g 2LP Mastered from the Original Analog Tapes by James Guthrie, Joel Plante, and Bernie Grundman

Mastered from the original analog master tapes by James Guthrie, Joel Plante, and Bernie Grundman, this QRP-pressed pressing of Pink Floyd's The Wall bests any other you've heard. Teeming with stunning dynamics, an immense front-to-back soundstage, newly uncovered details, balanced transients, and tube-amplifier warmth, it will have you truly hearing this classic Rolling Stone names the 87th greatest album of all time with fresh ears. Whether you already have The Wall on an older analog pressing or on one of myriad CD versions, this is the vinyl copy you need to own.

One of the most acclaimed concept albums of all time, The Wall is renowned as Roger Waters' rock opera dealing with the abandonment and personal isolation of a rock star, "Pink," facing the break-up of his marriage while on tour. This leads him to review his life from the death of his father - like Roger Waters' killed on the battlefield before he was born - to his spiteful teachers, his business, even his audience. He sees each as a brick in a metaphorical wall between him and the rest of the world. This wall intensifies his isolation, until he imagines the only solution is to become a fascist dictator. When he confronts his madness and deals with his issues, his torments cease and the wall crumbles.
