note:
Considered not quite the top musically, but lyrically very strong, anti-war and humanist oriented. There is no doubt that the album features songs that didn't fit in
The Wall.
Originally, it was meant to be an OST to
The Wall film,
but then the band decided to make it an album.
There is an inscription on the cover which reads: requiem for post war dream by Roger Waters, performed by Pink Floyd. Right under that: Pink Floyd are: Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason. Rick Wright did not take part in the recording and was not a member of the band at the time. Nick Mason in his own words just drummed what he had to. Only Gilmour was permitted to take part by recording a few short solos.
The last song did not even feature Mason, but Andy Newmark, on the drums. The recording of The Final Cut meant the definitive dissolution of Pink Floyd.
