M. Roger Waters,

Most people don't know this guy but he has signed two of the world's most sold albums(back a while, in the 70's and 80').

As of May 2006, Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon has been on the charts for over 1,500 weeks, or just about twenty-eight years. The album spent 741 of those weeks on the Billboard 200. The other weeks were spent on Billboard's Top Pop Catalog Albums chart (for older albums). Its closest rival is Bob Marley's Legend, checking in at over 800 weeks (Billboard 200 and Top Pop Catalog Albums combined).

Roger Waters was inspired to create the album(The Wall) during a concert on 6 July, 1977 on the final night of the tour to promote Animals, dubbed Pink Floyd — In the Flesh. In Montreal, a fan's disruptive behaviour resulted in Waters spitting in the fan's face. Waters was immediately disgusted with himself, and his alienation from his fans urged him to build a wall between himself and the audience, an idea which later evolved into the album.

Since its release in 1979, and the subsequent movie of 1982, the Wall has become synonymous with, if not the very definition of, the term "concept album." Aureally explosive on record and visually explosive on the screen, the Wall traces the life of the fictional protagoinst, Pink Floyd, from his boyhood days in war-torn England to his self-imposed isolation as a world-renownedrock star, leading to a climax that is as questionably cathartic as it is destructive.

For theses reason and a whole world more of other reason......On e being that I am from Montreal...

I hope some will open their ears, eyes and heart to this execptionally rich and innovative music.

Abb.

Realizing, of course, that I am probably from a far different generation from you, I will put in my two cents on this subject.

For me, the most important band in recent history is The Beatles, Allow me to qualify this statement somewhat by telling you that I am a musician. I consider this fact to be important because it gives me the ability to qualify my opinion with facts.

Besides the songwriting and musical ability demostrated by these four lads from Liverpool, there's a multitude of reasons why they are vital to modern music. Until they came along, recording music was done early in the day, usually from around 7am. The Beatles realized early on that musicians were nocturnal people and insisted on beginning recording sessions later in the day, eventually convincing the record company to allow this practice. This has now become commonplace in the industry.

Before them, drums were recorded by either using one microphone stuck in the air above the drum kit or via one microphone for the entire band. They changed this by innovating a technique called "close miking" where each drum is recorded with microphones on each drum placed close to the skins. I realize that it was their engineers who actually came up with this technique, but it was their insistence that the drums sound clearer and better (like Motown records, which they loved) that made it happen.

Some other innovations by The Beatles:
-making musicians more of a pop culture phenomemen
-recording bass guitar directly by plugging it into the recording console rather than miking a bass amplifier...this pratice is also commonplace in modern studios
-using multitrack technology for multiple takes of songs rather than recording the entire band all at once
-practically inventing "concept albums"
-the first band to use loops on their recordings
-first band to using guitar feedback on a recording
-first band to use backwards recordings
-first band to have a single over 5 minutes in length
-one of the most popular bands in history...I challenge you to go to any country and find someone who has never heard of them

The Beatles changed music history forever
