Heerlijke overgang van pianosolo naar orgelsolo in de liveversies uit '78. Studioversie blijft ietsje achter in beroering.

172. The Wall
Album: High Hopes
"And this was, I guess, ’68 when there was a lot of guys from the neighbourhood going to Vietnam. I remember the drummer in my first band coming over to my house with his marine uniform on, saying that he was going and that he didn’t know where it was. And a lot of guys went, and a lot of guys didn’t come back. And the lot that came back weren’t the same anymore"
De toch al indrukwekkende speech voorafgaand aan The River op Live 1975-1985 kreeg op High Hopes een minimaal net zo indrukwekkend vervolg. The Wall is 1 van de vele Vietnam nummers van Bruce en kan zich naar mijn mening moeiteloos meten met enkele grote Bruce- klassiekers (en ja, staat dus veel te laag). Het is voorlopig dan ook zijn laatste meesterwerk. Tijdens het outrro van de live-opname zat ik letterlijk met dik kippenvel en een brok in mijn keel. Zo zie ik Bruce graag: als de verhalen de lijn vormen tussen de nummers en niet, zoals bij de huidige Broadway uitvoeringen, de liedjes de lijn vormen tussen de verhalen. Ach, misschien is het ook wel jaloezie dat ik niet in de gelegenheid ben om dat mee te maken. Ik kan nog wel meer schrijven over The Wall maar ik laat de Baas zelf aan het woord:
"The Wall" is something I'd played on stage a few times and remains very close to my heart. The title and idea were Joe Grushecky's, then the song appeared after Patti and I made a visit to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington. It was inspired by my memories of Walter Cichon. Walter was one of the great early Jersey Shore rockers, who along with his brother Ray (one of my early guitar mentors) led the "Motifs". The Motifs were a local rock band who were always a head above everybody else. Raw, sexy and rebellious, they were the heroes you aspired to be. But these were heroes you could touch, speak to, and go to with your musical inquiries. Cool, but always accessible, they were an inspiration to me, and many young working musicians in 1960's central New Jersey. Though my character in "The Wall" is a Marine, Walter was actually in the Army, A Company, 3rd Battalion, 8th Infantry. He was the first person I ever stood in the presence of who was filled with the mystique of the true rock star. Walter went missing in action in Vietnam in March 1968. He still performs somewhat regularly in my mind, the way he stood, dressed, held the tambourine, the casual cool, the freeness. The man who by his attitude, his walk said "you can defy all this, all of what's here, all of what you've been taught, taught to fear, to love and you'll still be alright." His was a terrible loss to us, his loved ones and the local music scene. I still miss him.

Wat weet deze man toch soms relatief simpele nummers echt tot een hoger niveau te tillen door ze zo ingetogen en toch intens te brengen.

Mooi nummer van het toch wat onderschatte High Hopes. Het album is een beetje een allegaartje, maar bevat zat goede nummers waaronder deze.
