pink floyd the wall 2000
 

i went into best buy the other day, trying to get the wall, because it is one of the few classic cds i do not have. all they had was the wall 2000, so i figured it was one of those rereleased digitally enhanced records, so i got it. i pop it in my cd player . . . what the hell is that crap. imo they ruined that cd. any of you heard it?

No... tell me more though. Is it a re-mix? Who did it? I bet it was that bastard Waters... :(

yeah it like a remix. its by "out of phase", whoever the hell that is. they redid everything all the guitars, drums, everything is redone.
i think the group who did this is from denmark. the record label is hypnotic records and the address is in denmark.

and no, i do not think roger was involved.

It's a trance/rock "Tribute" CD. I'm a huge PF fan with a number of Tribute CDs, but based on what I have read and heard about this one, I've avoided it.

YES! my parents got me it for my birthday and i rejected it. i since sold it to a local record store. i was so upset. i wanted the REAL wall not some copout tribute. but it's all good cos they got me the real wall for my next birthday :D i'm so spoiled. heh.

*Tributes* are for loser bands that can't do anything original.

Even more disapointing when you expect the real thing...

This is the first I've heard of this, sounds hideous, I'll avoid it like the plague.

I have the electronica tribute double CD and the Us and Them symphonic Floyd CD, but never heard of this one. Sounds awful

Bah, why do people keep trying to butcher Pink Floyd ? :(

Althoug on a sidenote the best tribute CD I've heard was "Third Eye Open", a string tribute to Tool, basically a string quartet covers well known Tool songs, sounds pretty good actually :)

I've got that too, and I agree that it's pretty good.

yeah string renditions are really cool. i especially like apocalyptica's metallica covers :-D

Pick up Echoes of Pink. Female folk/acoustic artists doing Pink Floyd. I love it and it puts a new spin on the thier songs.

There is a band called Luther Wright & The Wrongs who redid The Wall as bluegrass. They had pretty interesting interpretations.

The Wall rocks.

There is no good reason to redo The Wall.

I'm all for "tributes" for those that want them (not me!)

BUT

When they package them in a way so as to trick people into buying them thinking its the original, my eyes go all bloodshot and I get a disturbing twitch in my knife hand.

I bought a Hendrix CD last year that made no mention that it was a tribute until you used a magnifying glass. Same cover graphics, same everything, just....not....same.....music
