Damn those concept albums

Especially the double ones.

At something past 11 I decided to start playing The Wall. I turned the volume up (the wonders of a detached house), sat back and appreciated nuances of the music I'd not heard in a long time. The first disc finished, so I quickly called up the second (the wonders of a media centre).

I got goose bumps during 'Comfortably Numb'.

Perhaps it's because the heating had turned off two hours previously and it's f'ing cold out there, or perhaps it's because it's an excellent track, played by superb musicians at the height of their creativity (or was that 'Wish you were here'?). Actually, I pretty much always get goose bumps from Comfortably Numb.

Talking of 'Wish you were here' makes me want to listen to that now, but it's a school night so I should go to bed. I'll listen to it tomorrow.
