Waters can’t write music and Gilmour cant write lyrics…basically. Waters has the showmanship in him and Gilmour has the finesse to take Waters’ ramblings and make you feel more than the whining of it. (Lookin at you “The Final Cut”)
They do suck without each other, although “The Division Bell” is one of my favorites. Probably because I grew up hearing it in the car with my dad.
Oh that would be awesome, a re-do on final cut. It has some gems in it that could be made so much better with more heart in it from Gilmour. He phoned it in on that one, and I don’t blame him, but it’s not a true floyd album as it stands, to me anyway. And yes, Waters has a great voice too.
His guitar solos on Dogs alone make him top 5
Having said that, I prefer waters version/vision of Pink Floyd.
And having said that!..... They kind of both suck without the other

Pretty much agree. Although I find waters voice underrated.
The final cut should be their next project. Take out all the sax and add Gilmour guitar in it's place

Gilmour did grow as a songwriter since Waters left...(I think his wife helps with lyrics) while Waters has only become more dickish
