4.0 out of 5 stars Authentic Bluegrass Sound... with a twist, October 9, 2002

Regardless of your opinion of Pink Floyd, this is still a great Bluegrass album. In fact, I think a lot of Pink Floyd fans may be too closed minded about this album.

The strangest thing about it is that it stays true to every lyric in the original album... word for word, but everything else is totally original... which is not easy.

Steve Martin used to have an entire routine about how it's nearly impossible to play a sad song on a banjo. This album contains several prime examples to prove him right that feature not only banjos but fiddles (While it may be true thag there were violins on the original Floyd album... bluegrass folks play Fiddles).

Case in point, "Goobye Cruel World": On the original Floyd album it's a slow painful lament of a numb rock star who's saying goodbye as he fades into his dark sedated world. The Bluegrass version on this album is a real toe-tapper that'll get a barnyard full of people jumping and stomping their boots!

If you are open minded about Bluegrass... buy it. For Floyd fans without any interest in Bluegrass... Be prepared; you may not be ready for this.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice but get the full album, December 21, 2005

Loved the CD. Played it over and over again the night I received it. Very nice take on the Wall and well thought out and executed. Would be a 4 or 5 instead of a 3. . .

BUT there is another out CD there by Luther Wright & The Wrongs that contains 13 more songs from the Wall and includes all of the material on this one. It is called Rebuild the Wall as opposed to Rebuild the Wall Part 1. Don't end up like me and have to buy the other album as well!

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, accurate, but flawed, June 5, 2001

This review is from: Rebuild the Wall Pt. 1 (Audio CD)

Interesting Cd that is clearly a loving and faithful version of the Wall. I think they are perhaps too faithfull. The Wall is about growing up in WW2 England and becoming isolated. Goodbye Blue Skys sounds out of place in Canada or the US where we never saw an enemy bomber. The theme of growing your wall works for the country, but too much seems to be literal takes from the original. Worth a listen, but not a must have.
