Final albums: Waters vs Gilmour

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Which album do you choose? Everybody keeps telling that Roger Waters
was the true genius of Pink Floyd, which is somewhat true, but I think
his final album with the band is much weaker than David Gilmour's last
album... In his final days with the band, Roger Waters was moaning too
much IMO. All the magic, once found in songs like Echoes, Crazy
Diamond, etc was gone. Your thoughts please.

	Human beings were created by water to carry it uphill.

	GILMOUR IS SIMPLY A GENIUS! THE DIVISION BELL IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ALBUM EVER!

	I think tha "Bell"'s a very good album (* or **), while TFC is one of my biggest disappointments in music ever.

	The Final Cut is probably the best Floyd album (though it's kinda hard to get into). People jsut need to LISTEN to it.

	Both. They are so different.
	Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour)

	I don't even have The Final Cut, and it's the only album I consider of theirs to be "For completionists only". I've heard some of the songs from the Echoes compilation, and they pale in comparison to The Division Bell. A Momentary Lapse of Reason was great as well.
