Title: Strange.
Product review: This is a wierd album. It is very much like a sequel to "The Wall," but it isn't. It is a drifting, sweeping, nightmare vision all rendered in spurts of Eric Clapton's guitarwork. Spacey keyboard pads underscore all the songs, but Clapton is, musically, the clear-cut star of the album. Very worthy. Some minor quibbles: Waters shifts between sotto voce and screaming, which becomes a little grating after a while, especially on songs like "Go Fishing." On the other hand, the use of melodies from "The Wall" that pop up on occasion are, far from a cheap pull from past greatness, add to the album's sense of continuity. (Examples would be the piano melody on "Go Fishing," taken from the first sequence of "One of My Turns," as well as the glaring guitar riff at the end of "Dunroamin, Duncarin, Dunlivin" taken from "In the Flesh").
