Agreed. It was groundbreaking.
going to have to disagree with you there, IMHO DSOTM and WYWH are both better than the wall.

They are all classics. Love me some Animals as well. Too bad Roger is such an ahole. Just saw an interview with David Gilmour (by Rick Beato). DG is a gentleman and a legend.

Animals has some of Gilmour’s best guitar work.
Biggest mistake PF and Waters made was scratching the plans to do “The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking” in favor of “The Final Cut”.
Pros and Cons would have been a much better PF album, and Gilmour was actually enthusiastic about doing it.
I think I listen more to XTC than the Police.
“We pretty much sucked especially the drummer, but damn we constantly got gigs, it was great.”
“Down in Joe’s Garage
We didn’t have no dope or LSD
But a coupla quartsa beer
Would fix it so the intonation
Would not offend yer ear
And the same old chords goin’ over an’ over
Became a symphony
We could play it again and again and again
‘Cause it sounded good to me”

Good choice. Have you seen “This Is Pop” yet, the XTC documentary? Stewart Copeland is interviewed in a few parts.
Sting: “Obama was sent by god. He is god!”
Sting: “Obama was sent by god. He is god!”
“Uh excuse me, would you mind calling me ‘Sting’ from now on?”
“F___ you! Yeah my name’s ‘Bite’ and this is my pal ‘Scratch’......Now go get me a beer, Gordy!”

That was EXACTLY us lol lol We played one gig once where every time we played everybody in the bar would leave and go outside, and when we stopped they would come back in. And after 3 songs the bartender said “Enough of that, go home” lol
