Amsued To Death - Roger Waters CD

@uberwaltz, 

As you may have noticed,  I am not a native speaker of English.

I came to USA at the age of 22 to attend graduate school in California.


There must be subtle nuance behind each word.

But as long as we can communicate with each other, if will be fine.

I agree with you in that we had better just enjoy music.

So funny to stumble onto this thread. I just purchased a pair of speakers a couple of weeks ago and ask a audio retailer friend to come over and help me set them up. He arrived with 4 CD's to use for set up. 2 were Stereophile test CD's, 1 was a Rebecca Pidgeon CD and the last was Roger Waters Amused to Death. He must have played the 1st track (with the barking dog) 20 times. We adjusted the toe-in until the barking dog was coming from a very distant (3 o'clock) from the listening position. I ripped the disk and added it to my collection and have since listened several times.  

Amused to Death, since its release, has been used at shows and in stores, by many folks, when demonstrating systems. I like it musically, and technically, as, it has it all. I am a huge fan of Waters, P. Floyd ( since their beginning ) and always enjoy top name musicians appearing on works by the artist ( in this case, Jeff Beck ), who, since his beginning, I have been a fan. Clapton appears on Hitch Hiking, and is stellar in his playing ( again a fan since his beginning ). Enjoy ! MrD.

shkong78, 

I am frequently amazed how well many non-Americans speak English. I am often equally amazed how many Americans don't speak English very well and don't speak any other language at all.

You are doing just fine. Quite well in fact.
