 | | Waters is also known to be working on a new solo album, which (as remarked to Jim Ladd, with whom he worked on Radio K.A.O.S.) has the working title of Heartland, and that it might be released in 2006. | | | Waters and Pink Floyd reunited for a performance at the Live 8 concert in London, on July 2, 2005. | | | Waters would refer or allude to the loss of his father throughout his work, especially on The Final Cut album from 1983 (which is dedicated to his father) and the song named "When the Tigers Broke Free" from the movie version of The Wall. |

| | Roger Waters's third solo album allowed a faint but perceptible return to the sound of his estranged former band, Pink Floyd. | | | Waters hits his mark in his lyrics that range from the hypocracy surrounding the Persian Gulf War (1) to the ultimatly evil dogma of capitalism. | | | Loosely based on a book by Neil Postman (Amusing Ourselves to Death), Waters album centers on his perception of humanity during the tumultuous transition from the 1980's era of flash through the Gulf War and ending firmly entrenched in the dismal depression that was the early 1990's. |

| | Adrian's Album Reviews : Roger Waters |
| | Roger presented a demo of this album and The Wall to the rest of the band (Pink Floyd) back in 1978. | | | Roger does a particular thing, and listening to this album has driven up my respect for him ten-fold. | | | Combine this with Roger Waters attempting to be Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits all through the easy to listen to 'Home', combine it with other less harsh sounding songs than Waters of the past, and that's 'Radio K.A.O.S.'. |

| | Roger Waters concert review |
| | Waters is a powerful and moving writer of both lyrics and music, even when he is not in his prime. | | | This was clearly not Waters at his peak musically, but the lyrics were poignant. | | | What he needs to do is work on that song with Gilmour since the guitar work definitely doesn't do the song justice. |

| | The song ends differently: the two lines "All in all it's just another brick in the wall" and "All and all you're just another brick in the wall" were added right after the guitar solo, to end the song abruptly (instead of the music fade-out and teacher's screams on the live album). | | | On this version, all the instrumental tracks were re-recorded (there's no orchestra or piano, and the guitar lines are different from those on the live album). | | | No studio version has surfaced, although it is said that Roger Waters and the Bleeding Heart Band recorded it for the follow up to "Radio K.A.O.S." (that was never released). |

| | Review: Roger Waters: In the Flesh |
| | This was no exception as Waters and his band took the stage with only a perfunctory introduction from Jim Ladd (who was featured on "Radio K.A.O.S."). | | | About the only disappointment in the concert was the utter lack of any songs from "Radio K.A.O.S." (again, Waters' finest solo work, IMHO). | | | As the band went on to play many other songs ranging from very early Floyd ("Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun") to selections from Waters' latest work ("The Bravery of Being Out of Range" and "Perfect Sense" from "Amused to Death"), the change in Waters was apparent. |

| | On the original 'Amused To Death' album, Roger had wanted to use the voice of HAL, the computer from "2001: A Space Odyssey" that goes mad and has to be disconnected. | | | Rogers voice was stronger and highlights were PP Arnold, Snowy White and Graham Broad's percussion solo. | | | I was amazed at the number of young people in the audience, especially later during the show when I heard them singing along to the lyrics. |
