Great choices! I'm seeing AKUS live in November and Kate Bush also has a new album out then too - it will be a great month. Love Nickel Creek too - do you have Sara Watkins' solo alum?

Hi! Well, I must say that The Wall is the least, or the last. The best songs there (for me) are Hey You, and Another Brick in the Wall Part I. And then Happiest Days and ABITW part II. Sometimes I prefer to listen them at the The Wall Live 1980 (Is There Anybody Out There).
The Final Cut sounds similar, but I prefer it more than The Wall...

Regards!!

(plus there are more, but my Rock&Roll version of Ancestry.com doesn't have that many branches or leaves...mainly it's a tangled vine that even invades other "family trees" in places, so I pretty much could end up repeating myself again & again & again...plus start heading toward Fleetwood Mac territory...and that isn't allowed in this thread)

Oh, I also think I left off my previous 2 posts:

Spirit
