Re: waters voice

Mmmm...Interesting. I must admit that Rog has historically had trouble with his pitch. Even Rick admitted that Rog couldn't really sing in tune in the old days. When he sings Set the Controls (as seen in Pompei and other live videos), he always has to stick his finger in his ear to hear if he is in tune.

I do agree with the folks who say that his voice is distinctive. Animals and The Wall has good vocal work...but while recording The Wall, Rog had to record the vocals at a lower altitude (Super Bear is in the mountains), so he went to another studio. Pros and Cons is a good vocal performance, but I must admit that his voice has gotten a bit raspy with age.

But even DG's voice, in all its smoothness, has gotten a bit raspy over the years.

Enjoy!
