Fav Floyd Album

[The DARK]

Animals and Meddle are my personal favorites, but I haven't heard Obscured by Clouds properly. I'll have to pick it up soon.

Dark Side of the Moon is 100% brilliant.  I couldn't say that about any other Floyd album.

If the version of Echoes that they played at Pompeii was on the album, I might have to switch to Meddle, but it's still an uneven album.  You know?  A song like Seamus is fun, but not a classic.  But Fearless is also one of their best.

[Kenny76]

As for Roger solo... Pros and Cons is an excellent record, but I think Amused to Death is also VERY underrated.

ditto.  Radio Kaos is the only one that doesn't do much for me.

Radio Kaos is a heinous album.  It's stunning that a genius such as Roger Waters could actually put that out.  Amused to Death, however, is a classic.

You know, Pink Floyd is probably the only major band from the 60's and 70's I never really got all that into (although The Who might fall into that category too, but I find myself pulling out their GH albums moreso than PF).

I only own DSOTM and Wish You Were Here and very rarely listen to either

[buaawwww]

Love to read that people like "Amused To Death" as much as I do.  Just an excellent record.

I will have to give Obscured... a few more spins myself.

I was able to record the audio for the Live at Pompeii DVD, so I fortunately can listen to the smokin live versions all the time!

Just curious... people's thoughts on "Atom Heart Mother"?  Summer '68 is excellent.

I like Atom Heart Mother quite a bit - "If" is one of those near and dear tunes.

marmalade, I like marmalade...marmalade, I like marmalade...marmalade, I like marmalade...

I had an Art Appreciation teacher in college that made us listen to Radio Kaos almost every day for a month in class ("class" consisted of listening to music and looking at art for about an hour followed by a half-hour discussion - man I wish college never would have ended).

He had me convinced that this was the most important piece of musical work in the history of the cosmos.  I seem to remember him telling us that we were beeming this to the rest of the universe in hopes of finding other life.

Well, my buzz wore off and I later sold this gem for 3 bucks so that I could afford nickle draft night.

Doesn't it just have to be Dark Side? Just because it was played into the ground doesn't diminish its greatness.

I have no problem with Dark Side at all.
