What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



Roger's second solo album. Could have done without the nonsense between tracks but that helps
make it yet another concept album. Vegetable Billy calls in to the radio station with his
robotic voice. Without the lyric sheet you would never know what he is saying. Good enough
songs but nothing I love. Roger takes his jabs at the politics of the day, includng Maggie and
Ronnie, whose sole purpose was to bring nuclear destruction upon the planet. Billy will save
it. He is upset that brother Benny lost his coal mining job. Capitalism is to blame. He fools
the world into thinking ICBM's are about to be detonated around the world, while somehow
deactivating the military's power to retaliate. I'm just glad the planet was saved. The album
reached #25 in the UK and #50 in the US.
