Always knew that.
I got to hand it to the rest of the band for putting up with his idiocy for such a very long time. I dont care how talented a lot of people think he is.
While The Final Cut is my favorite PF album (don’t ask why, just accept that it is ;) Waters made a career of one thing. Daddy issues.
His entire lyrical output is over the loss of his father and little more than a cathartic exercise in whining to the world about it.
Some of it worked spectacularly, some didn’t, but Gilmore saved PF from a rapid descent into obscurity because without his Strat work, PF would be just a ‘pre-Emo’ Emo band.
And yes, I am donning the asbestos underwear for the fire about to come my way ;)
