"a behind-the-scenes account of the making of iconic album The Wall." TNT - 18.10.10
Product Description
Pink Floyd's The Wall is one of the most iconic and imaginative albums in the history of rock music, endlessly discussed and dissected. It is loosely based on the life and experiences of Roger Waters and the stage performances and film were created in close collaboration with Gerald Scarfe. They are currently at work on the new version of the stage show. Gerald retains all the imagery and amongst this massive archive there are hundreds of photographs of the creation, staging and filming of The Wall as well as the live stage performances. Roger has allowed us to reproduce all the interviews and texts associated with the production of the album, the stage performances and the film. This is to be the authorised, definitive book of The Wall.

This review is from: The Making of Pink Floyd The Wall (Hardcover)
The Wall, just when you thought you knew all their is to know about this 30 year old amazing Album, CD and or Cassette. Out comes this book, Mind you it's release was well timed to coincide with Roger Waters North American tour of The Wall which of course I did see.This book is one of, if not the best book written about The Wall, it has great interviews with members of Pink Floyd, road crew, and many others. It covers the movie, the concert and the era of the time when the Wall was released. For any Pink Floyd Fan this book is indeed a must have, the detail the scope and all the glorious interviews and information will keep you reading and reading again and again. A fantastic book about a Album, a Movie and a Concert that is warm full of great wit, stories and all that is Pink Floyd

The memories, the music, the madness, the Wall!,
By F. Melchor "Ben McGee" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Making of Pink Floyd: The Wall (Paperback)
An enjoyable read and visual from Gerald Scarfe's perspective describing his classic drawings and directed animation that brought so much of Roger Water's The Wall to such enriching life. Scarfe describes the manner in which he began working with Pink Floyd and there is considerable amount of discussions between Scarfe and Waters, David Gilmour and Nick Mason. Just saw Roger Water's rendition of The Wall live in Cleveland last week and Scarfe's visuals continue to astound. Looking forward to seeing more of the same in St. Louis, Columbus and Detroit. The visuals simply enhance the music and this book gives the opportunity to understand how it all came together from initial inspirations for the Wish You Were Here tour thru The Wall and solo Waters material. If you enjoy The Wall and its visuals (includes some concert photos from the 1980 and 1981 tour), or the cult favorite movie - read and enjoy the visuals of this book. If you really enjoy The Wall or have even a passive interest in same, see Roger Water's tour of The Wall. It's extremely enjoyable and unlike anything you've seen (unless you've seen Pink Floyd or Waters before). Sorry for getting sidetracked, but you can maximize your experience. Check this book out.

A must have!,
By servies "servies1971" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Making of Pink Floyd: The Wall (Paperback)
In one word: brilliant!It tells you all there's to know about the graphics behind, in front and on the Wall. As a Pink Floyd fan the only reason not to buy this book is being broke because you bought to many tickets to the 2010/2011 the Wall tour... 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful

Gerry's book provides a great in-depth look into the design process that went into The Wall album, stage show, and movie (also includes pre and post-Wall material, including art for Roger Waters' current tour). HIGHLY recommended to any Floyd fan.The book is full-colour and full of great pictures & illustrations. |
