50 Years, 50 Albums 1979: Pink Floyd ‘The Wall’

Well, it was no surprise the 11th studio album from Pink Floyd came in with the most votes over two worthy albums AC/DC’s Highway to Hell, the last album to feature the late Bon Scott, and Tom Petty’s third studio album Damn the Torpedoes. The Wall, a rock opera about a jaded rock star named Pink of which Roger Waters modeled the character after himself and Syd Barrett who decided to isolate themselves from society (Deep). The Wall is one of the best known concept albums selling over 30 million copies, second to Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon and that was followed by “Wish You Were Here”, “Animals” and then “The Wall” all incredible concept albums. Most critics will say “The Wall” is one of the greatest albums of all time.

PODCAST – Friday, September 24: Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin Talks Farm Aid; A Leg Thief In Dumb Ass News; Strange Things Caught On Camera By The Tribe

Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin was on to talk about Farm Aid coming to the city this weekend, and Chaz and AJ asked if he would be ready to go on stage and fill in for a few songs, if needed. (0:00)

Dumb Ass News – A leg thief. He stole a leg, then was discovered with the stolen leg strapped to his head. (15:31)
Ashley had a hysterical story about her nameless next door neighbor leaving a very strange clip on her home security camera. (21:26)

Chaz and AJ had comedian Pat Oates in studio, and asked the Tribe to share their stories of strange things caught on camera. It actually turned into a segment about hawks scooping up other animals. (27:43)

A viral video from the Bronx Zoo shows gorillas putting on a risque show for the kids. AJ then tried to explain what was happening, as if he were talking to one of the kids. (34:16)

Boss Keith was not around for his Top 5 this week, so he recorded it instead. He picked the 5 bands he would like to see reunite and tour again, but actually spent most of the segment complaining. (39:19)
