Roger Waters without the rest of Pink Floyd. Strong, biting lyrics, without that sound. Still, one of my all-time favorite albums, much more than later Pink Floyd releases without Waters.
'Home,' featuring Clare Torry with vocals as strong as those on 'The Great Gig In The Sky' is the highlight of the track, and the track is the highlight of the entire album.
While it does have sonic stamps that date it to the 80s, the lyrics remain as relevant as when they were penned just with a different cast of characters. -
This album is unfairly underrated, even by Roger Waters himself. The history of the tracks is really cool and the lyrics are still relevant and current. Even the arrangements, which at times sound a little dated, remain interesting. I hope the artist revisits this album and values it again in his live performances.

Question, I heard this album on Apple Music, it included the voice of the DJ on multiple tracks of him actually talking to Billy. I have the Promo LP and isn't heard. I imagine this wasn't added till later. Is there an LP that includes the DJ's voice? Thanks!

Should the intermission between Who Needs Information and Me Or Him have crackling or did I just buy what was a supposed 'Excellent' condition album and got dudded?

In my probably controversial opinion, this is Roger's best solo work bar none. Real tunes, great production (okay so it's a bit dated but so what) and sounds excellent on CD. Could do with an expanded release to gather up the b-sides and the brilliant extended version of "Radio Waves". Far superior to The Pros and Cons (still can't locate a tune on that one!) and better than anything since too.
