The Wall would be a great single album. The same with Sandinista.

Sandinista! could be an INCREDIBLE single album or even a very good double album.

I enjoy that it is a sprawling mess as it is--it truly contains multitudes--but if the goal is to make it tight and untouchable, a fair bit of editing is required.

It is the end of side 6(!) that does it for me. It has kids singing and dub versions that aren't very interesting at all. I quite like how sprawling it is, outliers like Lose this Skin hidden away, but I don't like pure throwaway.

Lol no, it's good the way it is

Agreed. But it could be great. Tommy or Quadrophenia work as double album rock operas on similar themes. The Wall gets boring when Waters keeps wanking off.

I think The Wall would make a great triple album. So much was left out or never fully developed

Because Waters pissed off the band. What we got was not worth wrecking Pink Floyd for.
