Additional information
Personnel: Raphael Ravenscroft (tenor saxophone); Michael Kamen (piano, harmonium); Ray Cooper (percussion). Recording information: Abbey Road, England (07/1982-12/1982); Audio International, England (07/1982-12/1982); Eel Pie, England (07/1982-12/1982); Hookend, England (07/1982-12/1982); Mayfair, England (07/1982-12/1982); Olympic, England (07/1982-12/1982); Rak, England (07/1982-12/1982); The Billiard Room, England (07/1982-12/1982). Photographer: Willie Christie. Arranger: Michael Kamen. The Final Cut extends the autobiography of The Wall, concentrating on Roger Waters' pain when his father died in World War II. Waters spins this off into a treatise on the futility of war, concentrating on the Falkland Islands, setting his blistering condemnations and scathing anger to impossibly subdued music that demands full attention. This is more like a novel than a record, requiring total concentration since shifts in dynamics, orchestration, and instrumentation are used as effect. This means that while this has the texture of classic Pink Floyd, somewhere between the brooding sections of The Wall and the monolithic menace of Animals, there are no songs or hooks to make these radio favorites. The even bent of the arrangements, where the music is used as texture, not music, means that The Final Cut purposely alienates all but the dedicated listener. Several of those listeners maintain that this is among Pink Floyd's finest efforts, and it certainly is an achievement of some kind -- there's not only no other Floyd album quite like it, it has no close comparisons to anybody else's work (apart from Waters' own The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking, yet that had a stronger musical core). That doesn't make this easier to embrace, of course, and it's damn near impenetrable in many respects, but with its anger, emphasis on lyrics, and sonic textures, it's clear that it's the album that Waters intended it to be. And it's equally clear that Pink Floyd couldn't have continued in this direction -- Waters had no interest in a group setting anymore, as this record, which is hardly a Floyd album in many respects, illustrates. Distinctive, to be sure, but not easy to love and, depending on your view, not even that easy to admire. [A 2011 reissue featured a bonus track.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Reviews
Q (1/95, p.275) - 3 Stars - Good. Uncut (5/04, p.112) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Waters is uncompromisingly, grimly realistic as he rages at the causes and effects of war." Mojo (Publisher) (p.116) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[The album] whispers with a sparseness and distance that suggests demo tape material..."

I was checking out audiobooks by Tara Moss on eBay & this one was at the best price. I thought I hadn't heard it, so I bought. Very quick processing by Seller, arrived on time, packaged well, sealed, new, BUT I found I already had it, but hadn't listened to it. It was my fault, considered returning it, & it was made easy thru' eBay & I was able to return it to seller. A seller with great items who was very accommodating, thank you for understanding.
