25 Years Later

[billroper]

It is hard to believe that it has been 25 years since the Berlin Wall came down.

I had a little time today to play with this in the studio, so you'll find a link below to something that will eventually escape here on an album. Right now, it's a lightly mixed scratch track.

I hope you like it.

Technically it hasn't actually been 25 years yet. Contrary to popular belief the wall's actual demolition did not begin until Summer 1990.

Technically it still hasn't (completely) come down. Parts of it still stand, highly decorated with mural art. But its demolition did begin on November 9, 1989, as people began attacking it with hand tools. Physically it may not have been much of a dent in it, but those hammer-and-chisel efforts reflected the fact that it was no longer a functioning wall.
