re: 79 year old Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) is touring.

Waters dominated the writing on Wish You Were Here, Dark Side Of The Moon, and, especially, The Wall, their three best albums.

I talked about Waters great lyrics

but that is NOT the music

lyrics + music = song

Gilmour is the genius behind the music

I dont like the PF psychedelic stuff before Gilmour, I dont like the Waters stuff after PF and I love the PF stuff when they were all together

Gilmore's solo stuff is boring. I get Gilmore comes off as a much better person, but he simply was not the "genius behind the music." That was Waters who is an a-hole.

Gilmour's PF stuff in the 80s and 90s reflects the loss of Waters input and lyrics but it also reflects the style of that time. Especially the Richard Wright synth parts.

The PF Waters/Gilmour stuff in the 70s is timeless, the PF Gilmour stuff afterwards is a direct reflection of the 80s era.
