 | Radio K.A.O.S. by Roger Waters

|
 | Amused to Death by Roger Waters

|
 | Flickering Flame: The Solo Years Volume 1 by Roger Waters
Buy used from: $11.10 **ý Notable for the unreleased tracks, which are not that notable. Rog sounds a little weak on the "Knockin on Heaven's Door" remake.
|
 | The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking by Roger Waters
Buy used from: $1.75 **** An underappreciated work from '84 featuring Clapton on guitar. Rog uses some of the motifs musically from "The Wall" but a much lighter concept. "Every Strangers Eyes", "Sexual Revolution"
|
 | Roger Waters - In the Flesh (Live)
Buy new: $11.98 / Used from: $7.39 ****ý Absolutely brilliant renditions of Floyd and solo classics. The band is super tight. "Dogs" is amazing. Backing vox are mixed too high in some places, but overall, must own.

 | Ca Ira (W/DVD) (Dig) (SPKG) by Roger Waters
Buy new: $33.99 / Used from: $12.39 I haven't heard this yet so I will reserve rating it.
|
 | Roger Waters - The Wall (Live in Berlin)
Buy new: $19.98 / Used from: $9.88 ***ý Definitely worth watching for the amazing production of the show itself. Musically a mixed bag but stands up as a record of an amazing event.
|
 | The Madcap Laughs by Syd Barrett
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $5.99 **** Syd's first solo work suffers only from his lack of focus. The songs here are riveting especially "Octopus", "No Man's Land", "Terrapin", "Dark Globe", "No Good Trying"
|

|
 | Broken China by Richard Wright

|
 | Wet Dream by Richard Wright
Buy used from: $39.96 **ý Wright's first solo record, from 1978. Not much to hold your attention but "Mediterranean C", "Funky Deux", "Pink's Song" are solid tracks
|
 | Identity
I haven't heard this record and withhold my review
|
 | Fictitious Sports by Nick Mason
Buy used from: $65.75 ***ý Not much of a solo record for Mason, tho he does produce, but features some very enjoyable avant garde rock/jazz by Carla Bley. Nick's drumming is great..
|
| Profiles by Nick Mason
Buy used from: $18.99 **ý Mason's collaboration with Rick Fenn (10CC) features Gilmour on vox for "Lie For a Lie", otherwise a fairly listenable portfolio for Mason's ad work. Dated production hurts the overall effect.
