Wet Dream is one of the very few Floyd related albums I've not heard.. I assume it's worth getting then??
Broken China is ok - although kinda boring at times.

My favourite PF solo album is David Gilmour. I really like all the songs, especially 'Mihalis' (the bit where he goes ape on the distortion is super), 'There's No Way Out Of Here' (wish he'd written it) and 'Short And Sweet' (brilliant vocals on this album). I think the album has a nice flow, although it isn't very cohesive as a body of songs, direction-wise... It's just a collection of good songs, some excellent.

That and The Madcap Laughs.

1- Amused To Death (a masterpiece)
2- The Madcap Laughs (very poignant)
3- David Gilmour (thought not brilliant, a very nice album)
4- Wet Dream (the same of DG)
5- Pros and Cons (the theme is great, but is a little weak musically, with that same folky theme played over and over..)

Amused to death is my favorite solo work. It's a masterpiece. I guess Dave's first album is in the 1st position too, but the fact that my favorite song of this album (There's no way out of here) wasn't written by Dave, puts this album a step Behind ATD.

Shine On!!
