Listening to that Pink Floyd album that kept going on about Roger Waters' dad's war time experiences, reminded me that Mike Harding did a similarly themed album in 1986. This'll be our chance to see how the two albums compare.

The Band Played Waltzing Matilda



Bogle's Masterpiece.

22 minutes to go.

Is this not one of his 'amusing' albums?

This is one of his serious albums.

It is his Final Cut.

But which is best? This or The Final Cut?

And will Dave Gilmour put in an appearance?

I've just checked and apparently this whole album was written and produced by Roger Waters, so, unlikely I'm afraid.

It's started!

Track 1 - God Help The Poor.

I'm in!

Accordion.

This sounds exactly like The Rutles' Living in Hope.

Accordian


Sounds like Dire Staits/Richard Thompson.
