Roger Waters - The Wall (Live in Berlin)

Roger Waters - The Wall (Live in Berlin)

The Wall (Live in Berlin) seemed uninspired and gimmicky in 1990 but looks and sounds terrifically compelling on DVD, thanks to its vivid image quality and greatly improved audio mixes. The freshly mineswept Potsdamer platz--a once-thriving plaza destroyed by Allied bombing in 1943--proved the perfect place to mark the opening of the Berlin Wall with an all-star production of Pink Floyd's magnum opus: a Wall for a wall. An unlikely assemblage of musicians augments Roger Waters's impressive house band (led by guitarist Rick DiFonzo and organ wizard Nick Glennie-Smith), with everyone from the Scorpions to Joni Mitchell to the Military Orchestra of the Soviet Army getting in on the rock-opera action. Cyndi Lauper, Bryan Adams, James Galway, Thomas Dolby, and Albert Finney all turn in tasty cameos, while Sinead O'Connor looks unaccountably aloof in "Mother." The documentary is thorough and juicy, and producer Tony Hollingsworth offers an above-par essay in the booklet. --Michael Mikesell more

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jan-18-2009; Awesome spectacle enjoyed best as presented live; Most of us missed the 2 or 3 stops taken by Pink Floyd when they originally presented "The Wall" tour.

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Nov-30-2008; Tear down the wall!!!; Great DVD. It doesn't matter if you prefer the original line up of Pink Floyd when they originally recorded The Wall.

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-13-2008; The planets aligned; There will probably never be another production with this much magic involved.

3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-08-2005; The DVD skips on too much; While I was pleased with the low price for the DVD, I must say I was disappointed with it. It consistently skipped on most of the songs and I really did not enjoy watching it.; read full review | report as inappropriate

2/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Dec-27-2005; sorry, but it could have been better; ok, the sound is ok but some guests are really disapponting..and I'm not only talking about Cindy Lauper (?!). Some songs, like the trial sequence, are hugely reworked in studio, what you hear and what you see simply don't match !There...; read full review | report as inappropriate
