Flickering Flame- Simply Top Notch, October 8, 2006
I have all the works of Pink Floyd and all of Rog's solo albums. I would rate this one as the best for two reasons. First of all the recordings in this album are of near perfect quality, and second the three new songs reveal more of this great musicians heart. His concert tour this fall 2006 showed he is just getting better. We hope the tour will be offered in DVD and CD soon. The only negative is that you can not play Flickering Flame on your computer, to try to slow the ripping of the songs I guess.

Absolutely stellar compilation, June 8, 2009
This is a great product. It's totally Roger Waters, but with the kind of biting, contemporary (even though nearly
20 years old) lyrics that we saw in The Wall and The Final Cut. And with a handful of live cuts to boot. Songs such as "Flickering Flame" and "Each Small Candle" are as good as anything he's written. Certainly a must have for the Roger Waters fan.

the driving force, April 9, 2009
pink floyd could never have existed without the four brilliant musicians playing such heady material.
being a guitarist i watched and studied david gilmour,and realize what an integral part he was as syds replacement.
the group individually has put out some remarkable solo material,however rogers projects are so infectious it is difficult not to presume he drove the floyd.
flickering flame touches on 4 of his solo efforts,and is a winner from start to finish."knocking on heavens door" is an amazing beginning to this collection.songs like "lost boys","the tide is turning" and others are well represented.
the only thing missing is his brilliant work from when the wind blows,however i could be adjusted on that.
the bottom line is roger is the man,and i am loyal to him,and his genious.
a great addition to any floyd fans ,or roger waters fans collection.....
