    Roger Waters-Live Radio '86

    Am assuming this is from the Radio K.A.O.S. tour but not much in the set from that album? Is this the complete set list?


    WATERS ROGER - Live Radio
    (Code: 18802)

    WATERS ROGER - Live RadioLive radio broadcast from Colisée de Québec in Canada on 7th November 1987
    Format: CD / Cat No: ZCCD063 / Released: 10/03/2017

    Track Listing: 1.Radio Waves (5:42) / 2.Welcome To The Machine (7:18) / 3.Money (5:13) / 4.In The Flesh (3:38) / 5.Have A Cigar (3:19) / 6.Pigs (Three Different Ones) (3:54) / 7.Wish You Were Here (5:09) / 8.Mother (7:30) / 9.The Final Cut (3:34) / 10.If (3:58) / 11.Powers That Be (4:01) / 12.Brain Damage (3:39) / 13.Eclipse (6:49) / 14.Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 1/The Happiest Days Of Our Lives/Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 2 (10:18)

    More information: Having left Pink Floyd on acrimonious terms - not helped by the controversies surrounding The Final Cut album and the ongoing court battles over the Pink Floyd name - Waters had by this juncture put out two solo albums, The Pros And Cons Of Hitch Hiking (1984) and Radio K.A.O.S. (1987), in addition to having contributed to the score of animated film When The Wind Blows in 1986.

    In similar vein as his previous jaunts, Roger Waters’ Radio K.A.O.S. Tour was an extravagant and ambitious affair. Backed by The Bleeding Heart Band – who he’d worked alongside since When The Wind Blows - the shows boasted live projections, quadraphonic sound, circular screens and even a telephone box that would allow audience members to direct questions to Waters himself.

    However, in contrast to his previous outings, Roger chose not to play his new album in its entirety, instead electing to intersperse his recent songs with Pink Floyd classics, albeit mostly ones on which he held the sole writing credit.

    These were stylistically upgraded: keyboardist Paul Carrick sang David Gilmour’s parts in a blue-eyed soul style, Andy Fairweather-Low added several funk bass parts, ‘Welcome to the Machine’ included a saxophone solo and more emphasis was given to female backing singers.

    The results of all this can now be heard majestically, and in exceptional audio quality, on this CD.

    Captured at the Colisée de Québec in Canada on 7th November 1987, and broadcast simultaneously over FM radio, Roger Waters here proves that despite his difficulties, his reputation as one of the finest performers in progressive rock remained unchallenged.
    he set list from that album?

    could be of interest...

    Do you have the line-up, please?
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    Definitely not the whole set list. This show was recorded by Westwood One, and this is all that was broadcast (and has been bootlegged countless times). The full setlist is here:
