Roger Waters: In the Flesh Live

Roger Waters, who was the songwriting mastermind behind such classic Pink Floyd (with whom he played bass, from their origination in 1965 to 1985) albums as "Dark Side of the Moon" and "The Wall," triumphs in this collection of footage from his massive In The Flesh World Tour. His songwriting abilities shine in such deliciously satirical and cynical songs as "Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert," "The Happiest Days Of Our Lives," and "Amused To Death." Just as with his former outfit, his ability to perform on stage is captivating (without the overexposing grandeur of massive stadium shows). A must-see for any fan of Waters, and even fans of Pink Floyd.

This video is very good consitering it doesn't have barley any of the orignal band members. Rodger Waters is geting old but can still do his thing. He preforms all of his classic tunes when he was with Pink Floyd and this video is for any Floyd Fan.

Bringing his famous "In the Flesh" tour to the live DVD market has got to be one of the most beloved thing Waters could do for his legion of fans. Packed with over 2 and 1/2 hours of sonic beauty, Waters over-views his entire musical tenure. Starting with Pink Floyd's "In the Flesh," Waters tips his hat to "The Wall" which then turns to the "Final Cut" and then "Animals" with one of the best versions of 'Dogs' since the late 1970's. Capping off his first set with numerous "Wish You Were Here" songs including 'Shine On you Crazy Diamond,' Waters gives Syd Barrett due credit.

His second set brings us back to 'Set the Controls' and then launches into a multi-song "Dark Side of the Moon" frenzy that includes songs that Waters, prior to 1999, hadn't ever played before. Going into solo mode, the band plays classics from "The Pros and Cons" and "Amused to Death" and finishes with "Brain Damage/ Eclipse."

After all of that, one who think the 57-year-old Waters would need a walker to get off stage. Proving us all wrong, Waters plays Floyd classic "Comfortably Numb" and then encores with a new song "Each Small Candle." Complete with a behind the scenes documentary and various pictures, Waters answers the question that he himself posed in the mid 70's: "Which One's Pink?"
