Well, I'm a little (?) older than many of you and so I was a fully grown up adult when The Wall hit the stores and I remember buying it after work the day of release and that night copying it to cassette and then the next day at work during lunch a bunch of us gathered around my car and listened to it. Or at least some of it. Guess that was probably the last time I remember something that anticipated in the music world for so many like-minded people. Pink Floyd was so huge. I have to admit though that The Wall was a pretty big disappointment for me at the time...and still. Like Troy said in another post (and much more diplomatically too), much of the second disc (or record) just seemed to be lame filler to me and the lyrics were mostly that same lonely boy's high school journal type stuff that Waters often lapses into. But some of the music was incredibly good and still stands as their best. Should've been a single disc with me and Troy doing the editing
