The Wall is the eleventh studio album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd. It is the last studio album released with the classic lineup of guitarist David Gilmour, bassist/lyricist Roger Waters, keyboardist Richard Wright and drummer Nick Mason before Wright left the band. Released as a double album on 30 November 1979, it was supported by a tour with elaborate theatrical effects, and adapted into a 1982 feature film, Pink Floyd – The Wall. The album features the band's only number one single; "Another Brick in the Wall Part 2".
As with Pink Floyd's previous three albums, The Wall is a concept album and explores themes of abandonment and personal isolation. The album is a rock opera that follows Pink, a character whom Waters modelled after himself and the band's original leader, Syd Barrett. Pink's life begins with the loss of his father during the Second World War and continues with abuse from his schoolteachers, an overprotective mother, and the breakdown of his marriage; all contribute to his eventual self-imposed isolation from society, represented by a metaphorical wall. Waters conceived the album during Pink Floyd's 1977 In the Flesh Tour, when his frustration with the audience became so acute that he imagined a wall between the audience and the stage.
George Roger Waters (born 6 September 1943) is an English singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer. In 1965, he co-founded the progressive rock band Pink Floyd with drummer Nick Mason, keyboardist Rick Wright and guitarist, singer, and songwriter Syd Barrett. Waters initially served as the group's bassist, but following the departure of Barrett in 1968, he also became their lyricist, conceptual leader and co-lead vocalist.
Pink Floyd subsequently achieved international success with the concept albums The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and The Wall. By the early 1980s, they had become one of the most critically acclaimed and best-selling acts in the history of popular music; as of 2013, they have sold more than 250 million albums worldwide, including 75 million units sold in the United States. Amid creative differences within the group, Waters left in 1985 and began a legal dispute with the remaining members over their intended use of the band's name and material. They settled out of court in 1987, and nearly eighteen years passed before he performed with them again.

With Waters’ vision, Pink Floyd became one of the most influential rock bands ever. The group's breakthrough album, "The Dark Side of the Moon," spent 15 consecutive years on the Billboard chart, and "The Wall" was certified platinum 23 times. The iconic album comes to life in a new film, "Roger Waters The Wall," and follows Waters' personal story stemming from the loss of his father in WWII when he was just a baby. Waters joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss the new movie and his career.

To others, he is the temperament behind some of the greatest albums of the rock era. And to others still, he is one of the most original songwriters of a generation that overflows with notable talent. To all, he is an enigma: a rock star who not only eschewed stardom but also spent much of his career railing against it. But to call Roger Waters a mass of contradictions is simply taking the easy way out. He is so much more than that.

Syd Barrett y Roger Waters pasaron sus años de juventud drogándose, corriendo motos y enamorando chicas. ¡Vaya! Todo lo que hacen un par de muchachos clasemedieros. Ahí, en medio de una vocación equívoca de arquitectos, nació Pink Floyd. Luego, la historia que todos sabemos: Syd se queda en un viaje ácido y en su lugar entra David Gilmour. Muchos de los grandes genios han pasado una temporada en el infierno (o en el manicomio). Nietzsche, Ezra Pound y Van gogh, entre otros. Luego de escupirle a un fan y escribir su gran obra "The Wall", Waters transitó por un fangoso bache: la decadencia de la música ochentera, en donde sólo el Glam Rock brilló con luz propia. Si no eras Bowie o Bryan Ferry , eras considerado basura espacial.

Ecco allora tutta per voi la lunga e gustosa intervista a Dave Kilminster, lead guitarist del Roger Waters The Wall Tour 2011, probabilmente lo spettacolo più grandioso e indimenticabile degli ultimi anni. In questa densa chiacchierata, quasi informale vista la simpatia e l'umiltà di questo grandissimo personaggio, Francesco "edward84" Sicheri ci trasporterà dentro il mondo del chitarrista, che meritatamente oggi può permettersi di calcare il palco di uno show di tale livello e di poter ricreare i suoni di una delle rock opera più belle di sempre.

You don't have to launch your missile to break down my defense
You don't need to find a jet to end our arguments
We don't have to be like everyone to use our common sense
So I guess it's time we burned the documents
'Cause you're crazy I'm crazy and there ain't a thing to lose
Except our pride at suicide of all we've ever knew
And somewhere is where east and west and the wall is coming down
Some times we celebrate other times we say what have we done
And I feel you're holding on and I'm holding on too
But no matter what we say or do the wall is coming down
The wall is coming down
Down
I see you come around
'Cause the wall is coming down
I don't have to build a fortress to hide what you can't see
I don't have to be the master and hold on to the key
Sometimes I feel so certain that we were meant to be
But I guess it's fine if you disagree
'Cause I'm crazy and you're crazy and there ain't a thing to lose
Except our pride at suicide of all we've ever knew
And somewhere is where east and west and the wall is coming down
Some times we celebrate other times we say what have we done
And I feel you're holding on and I'm holding on too
But no matter what we say or do the wall is coming down
The wall is coming down
Down
I see you come around
'Cause the wall is coming down
So whenever we turn the wheel peace talking make a deal
You remind me of palace time and I feel so Israel
Look at all the walls I've built and look at all the guards you've killed
And if the gates would open would it be more loving
Or would all my fears turn real
So for now I suppress your demonstration and I undress you here's the question
This love making a masturbation if every touch feels like instigation
I'm so sure if we all trusted the force of love
Even if our past is awful also break our pride in the torso
Whatever it takes for down these walls go
And somewhere is where east and west and the wall is coming down
Some times we celebrate other times we say what have we done
And I feel you're holding on and I'm holding on too
But no matter what we say or do the wall is coming down
The wall is coming down
Down
I see you come around
