Waters is a petty bitch. And I've been a fan of his music for almost 30 years now.

I was team Gilmoure until his bitch came out of nowhere with that recent attack. No need to pour gas on the fire. Roger Waters was clearly the writer of the group but was so much better w/ the input of Gilmoure and the others. I don't mind Waters re-recording DSOTM. It might be at least interesting and we always have the original.


I don't have any issue with it, at all. frick Roger.

A re-recording of DSOTM will probably suck but I’ll give it a listen out of curiosity.



I'm sure I'm wrong but Roger got The Wall and Gilmour kept everything else in the divorce?

If people actually listened to a long interview with Roger, I think they'd be surprised with how much they might agree with him on some things.

He certainly doesn't do himself any favors at times though.

This is me at our sons basketball games. Let her raise hell. But only to me. And anyone within earshot. Then remind her that “talking to” the coach will help our boy in ZERO way. Lol

But yes. You let her vent. “Let” is too strong a word. She’s a grown woman. A grown man chuckles and in my case makes a pseudo-appalled face at the “incendiary” comments she’s making.

Not trying to get divorced at 50. Certainly would not be either at 70+ with David Gilmour money on the line.

This is really weird. The original was absolute perfection, and Alan Parsons had a big hand in that perfection as the producer of the album. Also, Clare Torry's vocals will be near impossible to match. Not interested...

Roger Waters is a kunt. I'd rather hear David Gilmour play and sing happy birthday than Roger Waters doing a whole album of his wonderful "creativity"

I think it was mostly roger. I recall that in around '72ish he came up with 2 concept albums and pitched a rough outline of them to the rest of the band. They ended up liking what would eventaully be DSOTM and the other would eventaully end up being Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking. I think roger was generally more often than not the creative force of the band so I get that he feels like this is "his" album or his music.



He didn't pitch them two concept albums in 1972, he came with the concept of Dark Side of the Moon and wrote all the lyrics and the vast majority of the music. He gave a few song writing credits to Mason like for Speak to Me. Richard Wright wrote the music for the Great Gig in the Sky and Us and Them. Gilmour wrote some music for Breathe and Any Colour You Like.

When Roger presented two concept albums it was in 1977-78, and one was the Wall (first conceieved after a disastrous show in Montreal in 1977 where a fan climbed a rafter and Roger spit in his face) and the other was what became his solo album the Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking. But it took Bob Ezrin who jad worked with KISS aming others to come in and edit down the materials and concepts to help make the Wall a more clear concept album, musically and lyrically.

So if Waters re-records the songs that only he created, we're left with:
Speak to Me (maybe)
Money
Brain Damage/Eclipse.

If we're really giving him the benefit of the doubt, then part of some of the music of these songs and lyrics:
On the Run
Time

Then the songs he only wrote the lyrics for, so he could speak the lyrics I guess:
Breathe
Us and Them

Songs he had no part in:
Great Gig in the Sky
Any Colour You Like

1. I don't think this is right, and

2. Some of this is subject to interpretation

Certainly Roger wrote all of the lyrics.

Mason doesn't remember it that way. If anything, it was a collaboration between Mason, Wright and Waters with Mason receiving (a rare) solo writing credit (described as a "gift" by both Wright and Waters).

Likewise, Roger wrote 100% of Money, Brain Damage and Eclipse (and those are classic Roger tracks, when one thinks about it), with Gilmour and Wright perhaps contributing ideas, suggestions, arrangement, i.e. "non" songwriting collaboration.

But, again, other than production/arrangement (and obviously, lyrics), Roger had little musical hand in Breathe, Gig, Us and Them or even Any Colour You Like. There is nothing "Roger" sounding on them.

The great musical collaboration on the record that included Roger was Time (credited to all 4). All the other collaborations are combinations that did not include Roger, other than On the Run (Roger and David).

Frankly, the division was already laid out for how the classic Floyd lineup would finish out. They seemed to set things aside, a little for WYWH, but then it was increasingly 2 camps, particularly after Roger fired Rick.

I appreciate the talent he had for writing songs in PF, but he's some special kind of dick head.

Although, I think Gilmour's wife is way off base calling him an anti-semite.
