CD Reviews

Australia-only release--Disregard Krishnaswamy's Rant
Jerry M. Ascierto | 12/09/2005
(3 out of 5 stars)

"This is a response to Raghuram Krishnaswamy's review, who probably didn't realize that this was a very limited, regional release.

Flickering Flame was only released in Australia,and it was released to promote Waters' (at the time) upcoming concerts there. Waters toured extensively from 1999-2001, and this release was given out to radio stations, the fan club and anyone else interested, to get people excited about Waters playing in Sydney etc. So, if Waters was really interested in the money, he could've released this worldwide. It was really just a promitional tool in a very specific region (Australia).

That said, I think Roger's comments on the Echoes compilation stand up.

This is for die-hard fans really, those who don't already own Towers of Faith. Plus, the title track, though a demo, is definitly worth picking up if you're a fan--the lyrics are really great."
Very good CD
