AMUSED TO DEATH

Roger had PLENTY of Genius after he quit Floyd. This is his best album and absolutely essential for any fan of Pink Floyd, regardless of the era. The amount of texturing and layering of moods and sounds brings a very hypnotic feel. There is a terrific blues sound, resemblant of some tracks from The Wall and other Floyd tracks. I can see how some reviewers are a bit tired of his pessimistic lyrics, but I find them honest and interesting. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that it feels a bit lengthy, and there are a couple of tracks that drag just a tad. I don't see any wring in giving this album 5 stars, but I see it right under at about 4 1/2. This is a superb album! Well done Roger.
