Obscured by Clouds
Waters produced thematic ideas that became the impetus for the Pink Floyd concept albums "The Dark Side of the Moon" (1973), "Wish You Were Here" (1975), "Animals" (1977) and "The Wall" (1979)—written largely by Waters—and "The Final Cut" (1983)—written entirely by Waters. He referred or alluded to the cost of war and the loss of his father throughout his work, from "Corporal Clegg" ("A Saucerful of Secrets", 1968) and "Free Four" ("Obscured by Clouds", 1972) to "Us and Them" from "The Dark Side of the Moon", "When the Tigers Broke Free", first used in the feature film, "The Wall" (1982), later included with "The Fletcher Memorial Home" on "The Final Cut", an album dedicated to his father. The theme and composition of "The Wall" was influenced by his upbringing in an English society depleted of men after the Second World War.
