    Great synopsis.
    One of my all time favorite compositions. The pros and cons of hitchhiking evolves with each listening. New sounds and hidden shuttle backtracks reveal themselves to the listeners.
    Sadly, it has not been credited with the brilliance and mastery for which it so rightly has deserves and has achieved.
    It has a very intelligent design and allows the listener to play out the visual scenes in their own minds as they Invision each moment.
    The experience is transcending and upon it’s conclusion it gives the listener a feeling of participation, if only as an observer to the events.

      Spot on, nothing better for driving at night, on a long empty A road, you can really “FEEL” this album at volume.

    Agree fully with the above mentioned. Even after so many years, I enjoy listening to it from beginning to the end. This record is truly a master piece. Excellent indeed when traveling; you are soaked up in the music. Like all (classic) briljant music you need to invest the time to listen to it and appreciate all the layers it has.

    Clapton at his finest. I saw the show in 84. First half was classic Floyd songs, second half was Pros and Cons. I bought the album the next day.

    Really ! I bought this when it first came out . Threw it overboard, on are way to England. Everything is cool with this album Eric Clapton, the back up, everything but Roger Waters and his ego that’s laid out on this album. It’s horrible
