Buy all except, Music from the Body and Radio Kaos. Check those out of your local library or download off the net. Your wallet may thank you.

Oh yeah, read all the threads in this "Roger Waters" forum.

Amused To Death and In The Flesh should be your priority, because the first is his best and last studio record and the second is a double-live record with great versions of many Floyd songs. Pros And Cons Of Hitch-Hiking is also good, a compilation Flickering Flame (if it's still available) contains some rare recordings, Radio KAOS, hmm, buy it if you are a Roger Waters die-hard fan (not now certainly) OR if you LIKE the special kind of arrangements typical for the horrible Eighties. Music From The Body is not worth buying at all.

If you want a good laugh, though, "Our Song" from Music from the Body is pretty bizarre.

Amused To Death is the only Roger album I have. Its definitely not floyd, but its still pretty good.

It's still closer to Floyd than any other of his solo albums. This is the sound I'd like to have on Division Bell.

While KAOS isn't Waters' best work, it seems a bit misguided to just discard it like it is an old and well worn slipper. There are some good songs on it... even if the concept is very tenuous at times. Home and Four Minutes spring to mind...

I agree.

'The Tide Is Turning' is a good song too.
