Roger Waters ~ Berlin '90 DVD

This is a magnificent DVD. I forgot just how historic and epic this show was. On the DVD's "extras" Roger gives some great insight on the pre and post production of this massive undertaking, also who helped and who bailed on him. Its a tremendous piece of artistic work as well as world history...

I can dig that, as I felt the same way when it was originally aired. After seeing Floyd do The Wall live it was tough to swallow some of the performances but in a 16 year retrospect it is truly incredible.

I watched it live on TV without all the edits and mistakes removed and I thought it was Hideous.I've since watched it on DVD with the edits made and re-recorded vocal parts and got a much better experience from it.It's different to say the least though and I can understand why some people don't like it.Bryan Adams did a good job I thought and the Scorpions kind of fitted the over the top rock band image you get from In The Flesh.At least It's more interesting than Pompeii.

Here is a definition of the word Discription
