9. Has one of the best guitar solos I’ve ever heard (twice in the same song).

Their fourth masterpiece in a row. I haven't listened to all four sides in a long time, but for me thematically it's a pretty great album. I've thought the Dark Side of the Moon was their most mature record on those themes, and it would have made more sense had the Wall come years before DSOTM instead of the reverse. Anyway it gets a top rating from me.

Great album. Comfortably Numb is one of the greatest songs of all time.
Ironically, the song on the album I probably like the least is Another Brick in the Wall, which seems to get the most airplay on the handful of classic rock stations that I listen to. Much like Bohemian Rhapsody, I never really cared all that much for it, have heard it a million times, and now I'm just sick of it. Never get tired of Comfortably Numb, though. |

Not even among top three Pink Floyd Albums. For me it is a coin flip for 4th place with Meddle. The Wall does contain some truly great songs, Comfortably Numb first among them, but there is just too much self-indulgent filler that Roger Waters should have left at the therapist office to justify a double album.
Still...it's Pink Floyd, so I give it an 8. |

A few incredible songs, but mostly overly indulgent schlock. I loved it as a teenager, but as a 40 something it barely ranks ahead of solo Roger stuff, which is to say I’m not much of a fan. It ranks somewhere around 7th or 8th in terms of my favorite Floyd albums.

Roger Water explains it masterfully in his "Inner View" with Jim Ladd
I received a two album copy of the broadcast when I called and asked for a transcript a few decades ago. |

It's a masterpiece, a horribly tragic story beautifully displayed.
Can't dance to it? Shut up and put some headphones on when you listen to it. |

If you should go skating on the thin ice of modern life...
Album has some absolute classics on it. It's probably 3 or 4 for Floyd albums for me personally but I love it. |

It's not as good as Dark Side Of The Moon, but it's a great album.
