Pink Floyd

The live recording of Pink Floyd on February 14, 1981, at Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, Germany, is part of "The Wall" tour, which was a significant high point in the band's career. Prior to this concert, Pink Floyd had released "The Wall" album in November 1979, which became one of their most iconic works, showcasing a rock opera format that explored themes of isolation and personal trauma. The live performance features material from "The Wall," demonstrating the band's elaborate stage productions and their commitment to delivering a theatrical experience. During these concerts, they incorporated innovative visuals and sound techniques that matched the album's narrative. An interesting fact about this time is that Roger Waters, the band's lyricist and co-founder, played a crucial role in the creative direction, making the live shows as impactful as the studio recordings, further solidifying Pink Floyd's legacy in rock history.
