2. Possibly Clapton's best work -- IMO. I didn't get to see it live, but
hubby did, twice, and I would love to have a bootleg of those shows.

5. Clapton does all the guitar work. He toured with Waters on this tour.
He is incredible on it!

4. Love Pros and Cons
And I really like Amused To Death and Radio K.A.O.S., too. Roger Waters has a neat mind - he's one of those people I'd like to sit down with and have a conversation over a couple of pints.

6. I have that disk.....
It was (or maybe still is) out of print for a while. Clapton is indeed amazing, but the whole album is great.
