V.A - Back Against the Wall

Bueno bueno yo sé que The Wall si bien no es el disco más amado de Pink Floyd, no podemos negar la relevancia que tuvo para el levante de la carrera de estos genios, es toda una lástima que haya sido tan vilmente comercializado (I.E: "Ud oye Pink Floyd?" - "Sí, claro los que tocan Another Brick in the Wall) aun tomando en cuenta esto y los que saben pueden afirmar que The Wall no es solamente Another Brick in the Wall, sino que está plagada de excelentes canciones como Thin Ice, The Trial y Mother... podemos pues decir que es uno de los discos más importantes de esta banda inglesa... Así que hoy les traigo Back Against the Wall un tributo producido por Billy Sherwood, quien estuvo en bandas del calibre de Yes, Chris Squire Experiment, colaborado con Toto, producido para AC/DC y muchas otros grupos más, en el que se confabula con músicos progresivos excelsos para rendir este homenaje a una de las más grandes bandas, el sonido es increible y es muy fiel al creado por Waters en otrora, sin llegar a ser una inservible copia, mas añadiendo cada músico un toque especial que hacen ver un esfuerzo y una cierta empatía por parte de los colaboradores. Y estamos hablando con músicos de la talla de Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Adrian Belew, Vinnie Colaiuta y el actor Malcolm McDowell.
