I have seen Roger Waters mentioned with both Radio KAOS and Amused to Death, but you also have to include The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking in the mix. Although this was his first solo album, not counting Music from the Body, he continued the "concept album" idea that he concluded with the last few albums he did with Pink Floyd. This is an album I think that you have to listen to, alot, and let it grow on you. I think the song "Every Strangers Eyes" is one of RW's best, though. I found this lengthy article discussing Pros and Cons... a while back, and think it is as good an explanation as any.
