QuoteHouseBoyKnows Yes. I posted a similar message on the Sticky HD page yesterday. I've never had a delay like this from Amazon for a major release. Makes me wonder if the demand has been so great that they can't build inventory fast enough. As backup, I ordered from the official RS webstore but I may have to go to a real record shop.

Dave's singing abilities have certainly aged better than Roger's. As it concerns Roger's "talking", I actually found his version of Stravinsky's and Ramuz's "Soldier's Tale" quite good.

QuoteRollingFreak Having said that, thats just me. If there's an audience for it, good for them. There's no reason Roger can't do whatever he wants, he's earned that right. I will never listen to it again, and I'm not going to applaud his efforts just cause he's Roger Waters, but I'm certainly not against it existing if it has its audience and its not erasing th

QuoteDoxa I've reading reviews of it already for ages. The consensus seems to be that it is "best since SOME GIRLS". Although one even claimed "since EXILE" and one 'only' (bloody Finnish newspaper) "since VOODOO LOUNGE"... Whatever.

Quote3ddie I really like it till the break when the Gaga starts squealing. The single version that blends it out meet my taste though it leaves out the groovy part with Stevie Wonder's piano - but better not to hear the Gaga. Chanelle Haynes would have been the better choice to sing on this. I know the Gaga is better to adress a bigger - and younger - audience, but hell, in that last two mi
