Vinyl

Pink Floyd – The Wall

The final chapter in the major Pink Floyd remasters trilogy is the best. While the analog remasters of Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here are okay, they don’t come close to the early-stamper British, German, and Japanese pressings.

Unquestionably, the rare pressings remain tops, yet they’re insanely collectible and accordingly priced. Collector wonks will turn up their noses, but this is The Wall for the rest of us. If you’d like a significantly better edition that what’s available for $10-$20, get on board. Anyone new to vinyl will be shocked at how much better it sounds than any CD version, even on a modest turntable.
