The Owl Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 All are good, but I think side 3 is the most solid, and most consistent.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 And next week I will be doing a Rush album, so that will actually be in the main forum when I post it next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skalamander2112 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 love the album. this is a hard choice for me. my favorite tracks are spread out through the entire thing. i'll have to go with side four because of in the flesh, run like hell and waiting for the worms. its a hard call though.

Silas Lang Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Close call between sides one and three but I'll go with side one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdFireYYZ Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 3. Comfortably Numb and Hey You are the best songs on that album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oracle Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Without a doubt, it's side 3. Pretty much the actual gut of the story and it doesn't have a big amount of filler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nappy2112 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 3 just barely over 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastille Dave Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 side 1. It's the only side that doesnt contain a track that I skip when possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Owl Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 1st: Side 3- The most solid and consistent side, and other than "Is there anybody Out there" All tracks are solid and some of the best on the album... it is also the chunk of The Wall where David Gilmour's work gets to shine (Hey You, and Comfortably Numb) in an otherwise Waters Dominated album. For these reasons I chose side 3 2nd: Side 4- Probably the most energetic side of The Wall with some very great songs... "In The Flesh", "Run Like Hell", "Waiting For The Worms" all very great songs... I even like the gimmicky "The Trial" still a very solid side, but not as musically good as side 3/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyLeeRoth Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 I've never listened to The Wall. I tripped acid to the movie a couple times when I was 15. Thats about all the Floyd I can take in a life time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oracle Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 QUOTE (The Owl @ Apr 26 2011, 09:27 AM) 1st: Side 3- The most solid and consistent side, and other than "Is there anybody Out there" All tracks are solid and some of the best on the album... it is also the chunk of The Wall where David Gilmour's work gets to shine (Hey You, and Comfortably Numb) in an otherwise Waters Dominated album. For these reasons I chose side 3 If it weren't for the fact that Gilmour didn't perform the "Is There Anybody Out There?" solo, I think side 3 would get a lot more attention. He could have made it so much better than Ron Di Blasi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driventotheedge Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Three. Any side with Comfortably Numb gets my vote. Greatest guitar solo of all-time to my tastes. Even better when tripping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReRushed Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Yep, side 3, hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Side 3 is the clear winner in this poll.. For anyone who is interested the album sides for week 3/volume 3 is a Rush album this week and will be in the main forum instead of MOTS...

Show Don't Tell Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Wow, it was actually really difficult to choose! I mean, I love the whole album, and all of the sides are great in their own way. But, in the end, I'll have to go with the majority and say side 3. It's probably my most played side, come to think of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
