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

The Wall at the Wall!

WOW!! There is always power in the music of Pink Floyd. Never is this power more poignant than in this story of the mental breakdown of the rock star 'Pink'. And never is this story more powerful than in this re-release of the live concert at the Berlin wall. It's not the wonderfully mixed digital sound though, or the enhanced imagery, or even the all super - star cast. It is the message of breaking down walls, personal walls, political walls, even physical walls. Roger Waters should be proud that his music, and his message, can transend personal egos, and result in a synergistic moment that was, amazingly, caught on video. Whew! See this video-

There will probably never be another production with this much magic involved. The time was the Berlin Wall coming down, the place was Berlin. The crowd numbered in the tens of thousands. Luck and God was on their side to pull this off in so little time. AMAZING!!! There could not have been a better celebration of such a historical event in time.

Unbelievable!

I saw the original broadcast, and it was terrific. After watching this DVD, I was awed and amazed. There probably won't ever be another like it again. A must have, especially for Pink Floyd addicts.

Great Video

I like this band anyway. Roger Waters is not my favorite, as he was fired after this production. But it is entertaining.

Great concert!

I heard about this from a German friend. I love Pink Floyd and was skeptical at first because of all the other performers covering their songs. I was pleasantly surprised! Roger Waters kept it real. It was very well done, true Pink Floyd fashion. The staging was spectacular! The concert is long, so the on-going changes to the stage and set keep you intrigued. Wish I could have been there!
