Not to mention the annoying Rogerism from this era whereby he keeps going from barely audible whisper level volume to full throttle volume, making it difficult to set a proper level on the stereo that works for both portions of the album. If you set the volume on a quiet part and then walk away, boom, the loud part kicks in and every neighbor is cursing you until you get back to the receiver. It's not really dramatic, Rog. It's just annoying. Or maybe it's just my memory. I haven't played Pros and Cons in ages. ------------- ...that moment you realize you like "Mob Rules" better than "Heaven and Hell" |

Ditto, but TFC will always be the more relevant and moving album for me.

Rogerism was in the air back then, but neighbors never gave a sh*t about it!

TFC That one makes sense. I'm not sure sure about P&C I prefer both to Gilmour's solo projects of About Face and AMLOR

Personally, I prefer David Gilmour's first two solo albums David Gilmour (1978) and About Face (1984) than Roger Waters first two solo albums (the first allegedly a Pink Floyd album). ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

agreed.... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

The Final Cut. A depressing album that kind of fits the mood of the present time. It appears from now on incompetence is a positive attribute. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

The Final Cut (by a mile) which was essentially the conclusion of themes explored on The Wall (and to an extent was leftovers from that). To this day I still have no clue as to what Pros & Cons is about it, and I've listened to it enough times. ------------- Is it any wonder that the monkey's confused? |

That version of Waters is simply extraordinary for me (function(){function c(){var b=a.contentDocument||a.contentWindow.document;if(b){var d=b.createElement('script');d.innerHTML="window.__CF$cv$params={r:'906368b65dc8cc58',t:'MTczNzU4OTQzNi4wMDAwMDA='};var a=document.createElement('script');a.nonce='';a.src='/cdn-cgi/challenge-platform/scripts/jsd/main.js';document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(a);";b.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(d)}}if(document.body){var a=document.createElement('iframe');a.height=1;a.width=1;a.style.position='absolute';a.style.top=0;a.style.left=0;a.style.border='none';a.style.visibility='hidden';document.body.appendChild(a);if('loading'!==document.readyState)c();else if(window.addEventListener)document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',c);else{var e=document.onreadystatechange||function(){};document.onreadystatechange=function(b){e(b);'loading'!==document.readyState&&(document.onreadystatechange=e,c())}}}})();< height="1" width="1" style=": ; top: 0px; left: 0px; border: none; visibility: ;"> ------------- Héctor Enrique |

The Final Cut in this contexy, but I prefer Amused to Death, a great album. ------------- Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. |

The Final Cut. Last year I've seen it performed live by a tribute band with Harry Waters as guest and it deserves more love, IMO. I quite like Pros and Cons, but I don't think Clapton is the best fit for Waters stuff. ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie.

Gilmour is the best guitarist suited for Roger's stuff. Beck did quite a good job too. ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
