Best recorded rock album.Amused to Death.R.Waters?


Tell me if there is a better recorded rock album than this.....if so, I want ot hear it. To me, simply remarkable! Yeah, it has weird lyrics..but what a recording and performance. "What God Wants Pt. 3" --amazing! How about something other than the typical "Audiophile-weiney" stuff. Whaddya think? This is better than "Wish You Were Here" or "The Wall" (recording wise -- and those are damned good -- IMFHO). Opinons..suggestions?

I forgot about the Seal recording..that is very good. Again, my point is not whether Amused to Death has a great story or such, simply that it is a remarkable recording (although I do like 70% of the tracks). I personally think Roger has some major issues..including hating the USA. I saw him in Denver this year and he actually equates G. Bush to Bin Laden (puts it up on the screen)..that pissed me off and not that I am a fan of GWB. I am sure that he has no problem taking $100+ for each ticket from US citizens. Also, I very much prefer Wish You Were Here, The Wall, and DSOM for the music content. I am also not strictly referring to the Q-Sound effect, although it is kinda cool. Thanks to all for the feedback.
If you are a PF fan you should get the D. Gilmour album On An Island. It's quite good. And check out the DVD Remember That Night. It's a two disc set and is also available on Blu-Ray with high quality sound. The DVD videos sound great. R. Waters makes a cameo on the bonus disc as well as N. Mason. They don't play. But there are some great ones that do including Rick Wright and Phil Manzanera.
Another tip for "Life On A String," especially if your cdp decodes HDCD. The sound is phenomenal. The bass on track 6 will give your woofers a workout.
As for "Amused To Death," I never thought of it as well recorded because of the Q sound. I love it but thought of it as trickery. Artistically, FANTASTIC!
Life on a String is great and the bass is tremendous. But, the bass note on Echoes from Remember That Night will knock you out of your seat. It is quite a surprise.
