Personally, I like The Final Cut more than The Wall, but some of that
might be because I first got into Pink Floyd not long after Final Cut
came out and my college friends and I listened to it frequently.
Usually late at night at high volume and with a large number of beers.
For what it's worth, the only Final Cut song Waters played on his
recent tour was Two Suns in the Sunset.

To each his own, but I liked his new one. Has a lot of "classic
Floyd" touches to it. Sure, Roger compares himself to God in the
first song, but that's pretty much to be expected from Waters.

It took me a couple minutes to figure out what "TWLIB" stood for. I
have The Wall Live in Berlin on VHS tape, and by amazing coincidence I
just got my hands on a working VCR to transfer some old tapes to
digital. Maybe I'll have to give that a viewing - I haven't watched it
in decades.
