Our Facebook page regulars were aware yesterday of a new interview with Roger Waters, conducted by Riz Khan on the Al Jazeera television channel. With the very short notice we had of the interview, it was the best way to alert people to it - so if you haven't yet done so, join us on Facebook now!
In the interview, Roger talked about his campaign for the rights of the Palestinian people and why, more than 30 years after he wrote the globally-acclaimed album 'The Wall', he is focusing on another wall - the Israeli separation barrier in the West Bank.
Roger touched on the music, and the current tour, during the chat, but most of it was devoted to his views on the situation in the region. Some will agree with him, others will disagree - it is, of course, a controversial subject, but you can see the interview in full here:
