Pink Floyd "The Wall" Japan OBI Audiophile

Japan Mastered Audiophile Quality

Near Mint+ Vinyl


This is a great CBS/Sony audiophile quality LP mastered and pressed in Japan. In the early 1980's Japan produced the highest quality vinyl records. The vinyl is mint / near mint+ and cover is VG (water stain at right corners). The title sticker is attached to the cover. The photos for the listing is my actual cover. 

I have listened to this LP set for the first time in over 20 years. It is now as clean and crystal clear as when first issued 25+ years ago. It will be shipped with a new re-sealable archival sleeve to protect your investment. It will be boxed in an oversize LP shipping box to ensure it arrives in perfect shape.


The Wall is less a collection of songs than a single work, which is sometimes frustrating; the plot lacks enough coherence to hold the snippets of music together. However, there are occasional flashes of brilliance on what ranks as Pink Floyd's most ambitious project. Most of these come from the fully developed songs, which have become classics in their own right. "Hey You," "Mother," and especially "Comfortably Numb" are subtle, incredible pieces of music. Though complex, they move at a relaxed pace, allowing the listener to absorb them slowly; this kind of pacing was something Pink Floyd excelled at. Also worth noting is the "Another Brick in the Wall/The Happiest Days of Our Lives" medley, which has become a staple of rock radio. --Genevieve Williams
