Listen to the real mellow jam parts of Dondante and Steam Engine on Okonokos and they sound very reminiscent of some of the similar styles in Dark Side (Us and Them) and Wish You Were Here (Shine On You Crazy Diamond). Mucho awesome!!
I agree with that comparison, but neither Carl nor Jim can pull of a good David Gilmour, but David Gilmour can't pull off a good Jim James!
Off the Record has some floyd moments in it too : ;)
I'm very new to MMJ, but I'm hearing The Who and The Clash, too. It's all good!
I think I'm Going To Hell on the live album is more trippy than the original and has a floyd vibe.
