My First Time Listening to Pink Floyd's "The Wall"

One of the best intros of all time! Still gives me chills (in a good way) to this day when I blast it myself.

 

I don’t remember specifics but I remember I was in 4th grade and my friend Scott played it.

 

I first heard it in ninth grade, attending a new school in which many of the other students had studied the album in an English literature class the previous year. Boy, did I feel like a fish out of water. This was 1987-88, so just as the Gilmour-led band was back on the road, so it didn’t take long to go from zero to sixty in terms of Floyd indoctrination.

 

I bought it at 09.01 am as soon as the shop opened the day it came out. Have to say I did not like Comfy Numb when I first heard it, those strings man, that's not Pink Floyd, then a mate pointed out how good Gilmour's solos were..

 

I was disappointed. I disliked the movie more.

 

Meh, maybe without Geldoff.

 

Wow, Im honestly really shocked that this post is still getting views and replies a year later. I had stopped using this forum a few months ago, but now Im back! I have a backlog of like 100 alerts to go through, so sorry to anyone if you had asked me a question and I didnt/don't respond. Anyways, thanks for watching!
