Fantastic review for an exceptional album.

For Lewis Tollani. Am I wrong to say that your tastes are greatly influenced by the historical aspect of albums? I've noticed that you particularly appreciate and review albums with several years behind them...

The grades.

Great review for a very beautiful album. Congratulations.

Definitely a beautiful but still immature album. Stunning "Liar" and "My Fairy King." "Seven Seas of Rhye" will become a rock masterpiece only in the next album. I love the riff and Taylor's performance in "Modern Times Rock & Roll"; too bad about the definitely out-of-place choruses...

For Masahiro. Regardless of whether one band is preferred over another, I believe Metallica loses a bit in live performances while Iron Maiden holds up well. Perhaps this judgment, however, is influenced by personal tastes...

I totally agree with Grasshopper. After yesterday's mess, you're making a big comeback, Marco.

Great are the Iron Maiden. Too bad they change their songs so little in live performances.

The grades.

Honest and shareable review in the final part. However, I don't fully agree with the analysis of the tracks. On one hand, I agree with you in considering "Dogs of War" the least inspired track of the post-Waters period. On the other hand, describing "Yet Another Movie/Round and Around" and "On the Turning Away" as identical to the originals reflects a poor memory of "A Momentary Lapse of Reason." In particular, the instrumental outro of "Yet Another Movie" is very different from the original. The version of "On the Turning Away" present here features an introduction that is completely absent in the original version; Nicholas Schaffner states that for this song they had written a different introduction first by Bob Ezrin and then by Richard Wright, but Gilmour ultimately discarded both versions. Probably, the introduction here is Wright's. I completely agree with Wanderer that the best solo of "Comfortably Numb" is the one from Pulse. Additionally, despite Primiballi :), I consider the Pink Floyd of "The Division Bell" superior to those of "A Momentary Lapse of Reason."
