TRIBUTE TO THE WALL COMING SOON - UPDATE
Tribute to Pink Floyd's The Wall
A lot of interest is growing over a forthcoming album playing tribute to Pink Floyd's The Wall. As the creation of the album is still in its early stages, we don't have all of the detail, but we have another update for you following on from our last one on 28th April.
Billy Sherwood is producing the tribute to Roger Waters' 1979 masterpiece, for Cleopatra Records, and he recently contacted us with an update to let us know the mammoth list of musicians involved in the project. After seeing some of the great musicians involved, it is clear that this is shaping up to be a very interesting project indeed!
Billy told us: "It is coming along quite nicely and I should be mixing it very soon. I'm a long-time huge fan of Pink Floyd and especially The Wall. I have been working very hard to keep the over all integrity extremely high, as did everyone who played on it. I hope you like it!"
