THE WALL PINK FLOYD MOVIE

We began work in the studio that October and, as Roger had written about 3 albumsвЂ™ worth of material. вЂњRoger, David, Nick, Rick and I had been living with RogerвЂ™s original demo recording of The Wall during the summer of 1978. In the liner notes for the excellent Immersion edition, The Wall Co-producer and Engineer James Guthrie recalled, As it was, we had to struggle to get it on a double album.вЂќ вЂњThe idea of The Wall was so big and there was such a lot of stuff that Roger wanted to get across lyrically that there was no other way to do it, really. In a 1982 interview, Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour alluded to a wealth of unused material. Although it was widely assumed early on that The Wall was to be a double album, as late as Jwell into recording and production, New Musical Express magazine was still reporting that it was expected to be released as a double or triple set. Bricks In The Wall, Roger WatersвЂ™ original demo for the project, while rough, contained enough material for over two albums. With the screenplay, we had a real framework for how things would go, and it proved crucial.вЂќДЇrom the beginning, The Wall was edited, trimmed, refined and cut - a normal process in the creative workflow. WeвЂ™d mark those вЂњTBWвЂќ - вЂњto be written.вЂќ вЂњComfortably NumbвЂќ was a TBW song. вЂњWe laid down the bits of music we had from the demo, and obviously there were songs missing, bits of the script where we didnвЂ™t yet have a song. вЂњThe next day in the studio, we made copies of the script and handed them out, and we all sat down for a table read.

I closed my eyes and wrote out the movie that would become The Wall. вЂњI started writing, and in the process of doing that I began to realize, вЂњIвЂ™m writing a script.вЂќ It took one night in my flat in London. We started to separate out the pieces, and when we looked at the storyline we realized what we needed was a through line, something to get us from start to finish. вЂњIn the beginning we had a very long demo that Roger had written. In a 2013 interview for, co-producer Bob Ezrin recalled the early days of The Wall and sorting out RogerвЂ™s demo,

There is a lot of evidence - written, verbal, and musical - that this was not the case with one of rock musicвЂ™s most spectacular works. In most cases, a band with the cachet of Pink Floyd releases the album that they want, as it was intended to be heard. Pink Floyd The Wall is an incomplete masterpiece. With a final running time of 81 minutes, thatвЂ™s at least 10% of The Wall thatвЂ™s missing.

At least 8 and half minutes of music were cut from the album.
