No Roger's not singing, but his music is beautiful. Everyone should hear it, especially those who think Roger can't write some great music (and can only do lyrics). Check it out, it is more like a musical (think Les Miserables) than an opera, so I think most people would actually like it. Cool

Also for those looking to get Roger solo stuff, you could always start with "In The Flesh Live" that way you get some classic Floyd and hear some Roger solo stuff-that's how I got started. (Also you can clearly hear that Roger can still sing! glare :;): )
Could you give me your opinions on the following, Erie? I don't have any of them and I need to complete my Roger collection. I just realized I have hours more of Jello Biafra related material than Roger Waters related material and was aghast!

Music From The Body
When The Wind Blows
The Wall: Live In Berlin 1990
In The Flesh Live
Ca Ira
In The Flesh is where I'd start on your list of things to get. It is breathtaking work. Roger's voice sounds good and the song choice is great toon, not to mention the awesome version of Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Roger also includes the great "Each Small Candle" which is beautiful.

Then I'd probably go for The Wall:Live In Berlin. Though some of the acts aren't the best, Roger does a great job and the company singing "The Tide is Turning" is a great finale-it is really spectacular.

Ca Ira is an opera, not a rock opera either. Roger never sings. Just realize that. I can't stress that enough. The music is fantastic though. You can here the Floydian influence Roger brings to the story of the days leading to the French Revolution.

As for the other two I can not comment. I don't have those albums. I am trying to find "A Flickering Flame" to add to my collection, but I will keep an eye out for those too.

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

Lois don't be alarmed-but I think I'm Jesus
