"Not only the best solo effort as in hits, style, production and lyrical content but quality of a Japanese produced compact disc!



It seems that North American music industry is lame when it comes to mass production of music such as this one. I have owned the original for years since it came out and definitely notice the quality difference between Japanese and North American.



Although it seems Roger has such a eclectic musical artistic taste this CD/album is the most "listenable" and easy to grasp. I believe this is a must for all Roger Water fans as well as Pink Floyd fans alike."

Waters's best solo work....

"I like Roger Waters's solo work a lot, even though his solo work wasn't as good as his Floyd recordings. This is my favorite of his solo albums, a tight, surprisingly uplifting concept album. The production is a little cheesy (it was made in 1987, and there are many annoying synthesizer lines), but overall it's very well written and made. I especially like Radio Waves, Who Needs Information (the most powerful song on the album), and the haunting closer, The Tide is Turning (after Live Aid). This album was released the same year as Pink Floyd's A Momentary Lapse of Reason, and this is the better one. KAOS didn't sell as well as Momentary, not even close, but I would still listen to this one over Momentary anyday. This is Waters's best solo album, and one that probably would have been a great Floyd album."
