I recall Mr. Mason saying that he was once recorded swearing down the phone to some American operator who rang him up in the middle of the night... so is it his voice on the end of the phone at the end of Young Lust, the "there must be someone besides your wife to answer" guy?
Or is it someone else? SOMEONE ELSE?!

Re: The phone conversation at the end of "Young Lust"
The answer to this question was discovered during research for Comfortably Numb-A History of "The Wall": Pink Floyd 1978-1981 by Vernon Fitch and Richard Mahon (http://www.PFAPublishing.com)
Chief Engineer, James Guthrie, placed the phone call to his London apt where Chris Fitzmorris, his next-door neighbor, was asked to answer the phone, listen to the operator and simply hang up the phone.

In the Comfortably Numb-A History of "The Wall" book, James Guthrie wonders if the operator ever recognized herself. She's never come forward. Chris Fitzmorris did not ask for a royalty, but Jim Nabors approached the band, asked for a royalty and received it!
