Pink Floyd: The Final Cut (1983)

 


The Final Cut was not so final after all. It may have been better titled as Roger's Last Cut, perhaps. In any case, I am not a huge fan of the LP. It's almost like a Waters solo record. 

The Final Cut was the last Pink Floyd album to feature founding member Roger Waters, who departed from the band in 1985. It is also the only Pink Floyd album not to feature founding member and keyboardist Richard Wright, who left the band after the Wall sessions. The recording was plagued by conflict; guitarist David Gilmour felt many of the tracks were not worthy of inclusion, but Waters accused him of failing to contribute material himself. Drummer Nick Mason's contributions were mostly limited to sound effects. [source]
Well, OK, so it is not bad, but other PF record are better.
