In part 2 the band complain about the way Roger Waters began to act at about the time of the Animals album. We hear a story from Storm about making the album art for Animals. There are also some nice reflections about Syd Barrett.

The Final Cut was essentially scraps left over from The Wall, and a few other songs and lyrics. I liked a few songs (Not Now John, The Fletcher Memorial Home, Southampton dock) but it was mostly a Roger Waters album. Also, I'd say either 'Ummagumma' or 'More' were their weakest personally, but I wouldn't rate any of their albums below 5/10.

@zyphenband No, The Final Cut was their LOWEST POINT! Pros and Cons was OK. Radio KAOS sounds like shit, Momentary Lapse sounds slightly better today. Amused to Death was alright but far from the classic everyone calls it. The Division Bell, on the other hand, was the best Floyd album since Wish You Were Here. Animals and The Wall (while classics) were Roger's "I'm Pink Floyd and David, Nick and Rick are my sidemen". I can also say Neil Peart is a better lyricist than post-1979 Roger.

Continuing without Roger was the lowest point of floyd.

ya maybe you're right...dang. well no one will know ever! if it doesn't happenn... whatever. if and when I die I'd like to know that those guys made up. cause i don't think the israiels and the palistiniasens will ever ever make up... so , who gives a fuck eh! unless all, all those old dickheads realize whilst they are dying that they could change everything and they dont have a chance but the PINK FLOYD does... yo

@dougfresh68 I think Roger would want to tout, but I think it's David Gilmour who has no desire to tour, or at elast tour as Pink Floyd

[dougfresh68]

Roger just accept your friends are still there and try to gain new ground by saying sorry and maybe do a world tour of wywh in memory of RICK and SID, also helping out maybe the people in Somalia for christ sake! you guys have the power already!
