Amused to death, by roger waters, is like Amarok, by mike oldfield, or secret story, by Pat Metheny: a real masterpiece that one must have in his collection!!!
Who can notice that Pat Leonard was the keyboard player and composer of Madonna's stuff in the 80's????????????
The guitarist that cannot be replaced on this album was Jeff Beck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some drum parts were played by the incredible Brian Macleod!!! Well, who's Brian ? He was one of the best and loudest guitarists in the world: to convince you, turn up the volume and listen to the "turn it loud album" (from his canadian group Headpins)
Unfortunately, like my friend says, his sound was too loud for human being! He died of cancer after amused to death recording!
Who else than a french canadian like me knows that the young boys playing in the beginning of "It's a miracle" were in Montréal: one of them , talking about the puck or ball, said: "elle a touché à barre!!...Envoye...les gars!...hééééééééééééééééé!"
It's absolutely amazing, how, Roger Waters, knowing nothing of our culture, made the beginning of this song so good!!!!!!!!! The young boys playing in the background is irrelevant in itself, but the way it is recorded cannot give a better mood!

Personally I'd rather have them doing another studio album, with or without Roger...
