Label : Great Dane

Venue : Nassau Coliseum, New York City, New York, USA

Date : February 28, 1980
Quality : Audience Recording (A+)

Review (Pink Floyd ROIO Database) : Excellent sound on the Nassau concert. The rehearsal material (Disc 3, recorded at The Paramount Studios on February 1, 1980) doesn't fare so well, with level fluctuations being the main irritant - interesting stuff though. This concert is considered probably the best live performance of The Wall. The songs are excellent, the transitions between songs are excellent, and the improvisations are excellent. What more can I say? This is definitely a must have! Hip Cat bills it as Best Sounding Live Wall CD!!! And I couldn't agree more. It is basically the same as Behind The Wall, except without the Roger's Seville '91 set. As with other Great Dane discs, the packaging is excellent. The colors stand out with vibrant yellow, orange, and red colors with the ink splattering stuff that is common in Scarfe artwork. The booklet text describes Roger's spitting incident, briefly analyzes The Wall concept, and talks about some of the venues where it was performed live. Disc 3 is probably my favorite of the whole package. There is no hiss and, when cranked up, sounds like they are performing just for you in a stadium with no annoying screaming fans spoiling it for you. It's in stereo, so it wasn't recorded on a cheap walkman. My guess is that it was someone who had a ghetto-blaster equipped with 2 mics and decided to sacrifice a tape by quickly filling in the punch-out wholes, popping it back in, quickly rewinding it, and pressing "Record". A Definite Must Have!!! - ADAM. I question the date of the show. According to the LP database, the Feb 26 show had technical problems: missing 'call the schoolmaster' (The Trial). "call the schoolmaster" is missing on Brick By Brick, Behind the Wall, and Monopoly. All listed as Feb 28 shows. Brick By Brick out of print (Great Dane). Excellent sound quality !
