To the point where......and this is a hot take......i don't think Gilmour would have worked on this record. It's That awesome to me. Mick I actually agree...Clapton's balance between "choppy" and "smooth" solos are just the right touch. Much like George Harrison's playing, sometimes it is that restraint that really makes a song. Of course, the magic Bob Ezrin created with The Wall could have been duplicated here. I just don't think the subject matter would have the same mass appeal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only listen to DSotM forward, and my favorite album of theirs is The Wall, which proves I'm not a "real fan." Not bad. I'm not sure I see the concept behind it, even after reading the Wikipedia explanation. Maybe if they had made a movie, like they did for The Wall, it would be clearer. My opinion, and that's obviously all it is, is that Waters is not as smart as he perceives himself to be, so I think he got a little too into the idea that albums have to have a concept.

I mean, Dark Side through The Wall is PF’s best work, and I find that mostly unarguable, so I’d say you’re a real fan for sure. not that I dislike the other stuff either, but that’s where the best music is. That and Echoes off of Meddle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronos Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Ironhorse, from 1979. A quality slab of lesser-known classic rock. Randy Bachman's short-lived band after he left Bachman-Turner Overdrive. Give it a try. I play it maybe twice a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
