PINK FLOYD

Come on now, surely the wall is at least 'waters, gilmour and backing band'

The Roger Waters Experience

always thought of it as Waters/Gilmour/Ezrin tbh

Yes exactly
(Waters gilmour ezrin kamen?)

The Wall rehearsals sneak recording is insight into Waters mania, he sounds completely at the end of his rope at various points.

I mean, from what it sounds like to me, there was tension within the band and they were fed up with each other long before The Wall.

I think there were big fights as far back as DSOTM. But I agree, they would've fallen apart (or at least gone on hiatus) after Animals had they not been in a cash crunch.

In July 1978 the band reconvened at Britannia Row Studios, where Waters presented two new ideas for concept albums

i wonder when the possibility of a non-concept album last occurred to roger

Last time they put a "greatest hits" package together?

(Waters gilmour ezrin kamen?)

All right
I got somethin' to say
Yeah, it's better to burn out
Yeah, than fade away

next level

Anybody familiar with this? looks potentially interesting, always happy to read what Joe Boyd has to say:

And my eyes still grow damp to remember
That his majesty signed with his own rubber shrimp

we don't need no / new crustaceans

Hoo ken ye eat yaer plankton if yae haven't had any krill

Shine On, You Crazy Decapod.

A Saucerful of Shrimp
More Shrimp
BubbaGumpa
Atom Heart Shrimp
Obscured by Shrimp
Wish You Were Shrimp
The Final Shrimp
A Momentary Lapse of Shrimp
The Division Shrimp

^ Heh, I actually read that in the voice of Bubba.

I listened to The Final Cut a couple of nights ago and found it to be quite a moving record this time around.

Careful with That Prawn, Eugene

A requiem for the post-shrimp dream.

shrimp has swum across the ocean
leaving just some stunned small prey

On a distant shore, miles from land
Stands the ebony totem in ebony sand
A dream in a mist of grey...
On a far distant shore...

The pebble that stood alone
And driftwood lies half buried
Warm shallow waters sweep shells
So the cockles shine...

A bare winding carcase, stark
Shimmers as flies scoop up meat, an empty way...
Dry tears...
Crisp flax squeaks tall reeds
Make a circle of grey in a summer way, around man
Stood on ground...

Careful with that Shrimp, Eugene.

dammit

Two shrimps in the sunset

As I pimp for a shrimp
Slide a rind down behind
The sofa in San Tropez...

When I was a child, I caught a fleeting shrimp
Out of the corner of my eye

Mother, do you think they'll drop the shrimp?

Mother do you think they'll try to break...my claws?

ONE OF THESE DAYYYYS I'M GONNA CUT SHRIMP INTO LITTLE PIECES!

a shelter from shrimps on the Barbi..

Don't give me that goody-good Jumbo Shrimp

I got elastic bands keepin' my shoes on
Got those swollen-hand blues
I got thirteen channels of shrimp on the T.V. to choose from

oooh babe
when i pick up the phone
i'm still nobody's prawn

Bring the shrimps back home

Waving My Arms in the Air

who let all this riffraff into the room?

pink floyd rules

solo waters, not so much:

The track also touches on popular Waters motifs such as war, corrupt governments, capitalism and conformity.

"This is the room where they make the explosions / Where they put your name on the bomb / Here's where they bury 'buts' and 'ifs,' scratch out words like 'right' and 'wrong,'" Waters snarls. "Wake up, wake up and smell the phosphorus."

guy really can't sing but not sure if it's the voice or the words that annoys me the most - both so self-important... kind of a shame since musically there's potential in this track (even if it is just a shameless rip of DSotM)

Yeah am surprised how little it seems Nigel Godrich managed to curb the retro Floyd-isms on this.

Have you ever tried to talk a 73-year-old multimillionaire into, or out of, anything? I imagine it's...challenging.

The White House explained.

Vocals are painfully bad. That is the first solo Roger Waters track I've ever listened too, aside from "Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict", which was much superior.

Well, it's great to see he's broadened his subject matter lyrically.

Godrich succeeded in talking McCartney out of many lazy decisions when they made "Chaos And Creation In The Backyard"

I doubt anyone's talked Roger out of anything since 1977.

...except possibly having Gilmour's legs broken in '87 or thereabouts.

1947 is probably nearer the mark tbh.
