Summary: Influential Band, Influential Book
Comment: This book is a must have for all Floyd fans. Has all the best tunes from the album.
Rating: 4
Summary: Almost great
Comment: This book includes every single song in The Wall, and even does it's best to write out every guitar solo for you. However, as with most Piano/Vocal books these days, the vocal line is in with the piano part. This makes it hard sometimes to tell what the original accompaniment parts are, but I bought the guitar tab edition also, and by combining that with this book you can get some pretty good stuff.

Summary: Very accurate - at times too accurate
Comment: All in all, a great tab book to a fantastic album; David Gilmour is really a fascinating player with a very unique style, and this book is a great way of learning about Gilmour's technique, and thus understand Pink Floyd as musicians as well as the guitar as an instrument much better. Some songs here are very easy to play, even for beginners, and others are more complicated, so it's better to start with the easier ones like 'Hey You', then build up to the more sophisticated riffs and solos.
The book is very accurate, and has few errors; but in that accuracy lies its biggest failing. Many times the transcriber made too much of an effort to put down every single sound on the album, and thus take small, almost unnoticable ticks and scratches and write them down as 'unpitched percussive notes'(i.e blocked notes). Those are very confusing and many times completely unnecessary. I played the Wall CD in full volume and still wasn't able to hear many of these notes (I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were gleeches in the recording which were removed during the CD remastering). Of the ones I did hear, I'm sure at least some were not intentional.
Bottom line: excellent book, but more for studying of Gilmour's playing than for actually playing the songs.
