Roger Waters and the Scorpions - In the Flesh  - where Roger dresses up as an ultra right-wing fascist dictator! Who says he's anti-Semitic? Tongue

4 stars 1986: Roger Waters - When the Wind Blows (soundtrack) - http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHcPTPk2B4oyVVKA-cNwccoKqQ6h7YGFZ

When David Bowie was unable to commit to recording the full soundtrack for When the Wind Blows - an animated film about an elderly couple who survive a nuclear holocaust, only to slowly die of radiation poisoning - who else was director Jimmy T. Murakami going to turn to other than the obvious choice of doom and gloom merchant Roger Waters. Tongue

I've always considered this to be a 'lost' Pink Floyd song, and as such include it in my spreadsheet of every song/track the band recorded together.

You're right! Give Birth to a Smile would have been a perfect closing song for the Meddle album. Thumbs Up

^ I'm having a Roger Waters Christmas today, but unable to find a cheerful Christmas video from Roger Waters (no surprise there!), here's a Christmas video from David Gilmour instead. Party

It's a Miracle


Christmas is a miracle. Goodwill toward men, women, and children is a miracle.  Planting a tree that you won't see grow tall and mighty,  but our children's, children's, children will stare at it in awe is a miracle. We landed on the Moon...it's a miracle. Make miracles happen my friends.

Roger that...Wink

Well you know you’ve got my vote with this one.

An amazing surprise. Really happy to have bought the album.

Quite possibly the longest feud in prog history, rivalled only by Patrick Moraz's long-running feud (and even longer-running court case) with The Moody Blues. Cool

At best. We have to look at the REDUX as a mood piece. Sure it is isn’t an album you’ll revisit a lot, but when you do and are in the mood for that Leonard Cohen like, moody narrative vocal delivery you may end up loving it….maybe for just that one day only.

Next time I'm in a melancholy mood - which is not very often - I'll give Dark Side of the Moon Redux another listen, then maybe it'll brighten up my day, but far more likely, it'll leave me feeling just as downhearted and despondent about the world as Roger appears to be. Tongue

The 1990 live in Berlin really is excellent. Shamefully. I’ve still yet to buy that double disc yet. I do want the CD version. :)
Lately. Because things are so damn expensive, I’m quite reserved in CD purchases these days, but no question this live album you brilliantly mentioned is on my list! 😀


Thanks! I only have In the Flesh (2000) and The Wall (2010) on DVD, but thanks to YouTube and ProgArchives I can watch all of Roger Waters' concerts right here, including his fabulous 135-minute long Dark Side of the Moon concert tour in 2006-2008, which Eclipses most other concert tours for magnificent extravagance, but has never been released on DVD. Geek





I would much rather Waters had made a CD/Blue Ray release of this concert instead of his Dark Side Redux thing. This one I would have purchased.


I can absolutely understand that.

5 stars 2023: Roger Waters - This is Not a Drill: Live in Prague - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDXojvpCl2I

The indefatigable and irrepressible Roger Waters is back again with a new Prague Spring in his step in 2023, where it's a case of catch him while you can, because This is Not a Drill, This is the Real Thing in its entirety, which could be removed from YouTube again at any moment. Geek
