Roger Waters - yes I acquired and listen to Amused To Death and have to confess I really liked it - I have quite a few albums by Pink Floyd and I do definitely like them, but wouldn't automatically think of them post-Barrett when asked what are my favourite bands. However, Roger has certainly had many great moments and this it appears, all in all, is another one of them. The second track in particular is superb.

All the best, Guy

I'm glad that you like the album.This list has turned you on to an album that maybe you might have missed. That's what it's all about after all. Your comments make me laugh as well.

What do you think of the remix/remaster on redbook cd that was released not too long ago? From what I read, the band says they did not truly remaster it but just "tweaked" it. However, I find it sounding VERY different, mix-wise, than the original.

Hi bart

I've not heard the Remaster of Achtung Baby, I am happy with the original and that is the version I will stay with. I do buy some remasters but always a bit nervous about it because a lot of the times the remasters are worse and just a way for record companies to get more money for the same product. But I will try to here the Remaster of this and let you know.
