It's probably better that you get Piper last. It's very different from any other Floyd except some of SOS.

As far as the orcheastra and choir go, it really adds to the song in ways im really not used to hearing. it was a great experience the first few times .listening to it. PF can just make great music. that is the first song off of AHM. the name of the song slips my mind.

I'd go Meddle, Piper, AHM, if it was those three albums next. I still like AHM though.

Atom Heart Mother is one of PF's finest work :)

I've never given it much attention.

I can't stand Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast. It just tries too hard to b e weird. And the title track gets dull and seems just a warm up for Echoes.

I listened to The Final Cut earlier. Forgot how much I loved that album. The Gunner's Dream is one of my favourite Floyd tracks.

I haven't got around to getting [I]The Final Cut[/I]. It doesn't really appeal to me that much, I'm not really into the bleak, Waters dominated stuff like [I]Animals[/I] and [I]The Wall[/I] too much. Not as much as the three pre-[I]Animals[/I] albums, anyway.

I'm a bigger fan of Gilmour than I am of Waters, but I still really enjoy The Final Cut. You can tell Roger Waters wrote it, but it's still pretty good.

I used to hate it, now it's grown on me. I reckon my favourite would be Fletcher Memorial Home.

the album concepts that waters created are just too amazing and made even more amzing by the way the group demonstrates it musically. I cant pick any1 band to be my favorite but PF is definetly one of the select few. (i could pick prob 5 that are interchangable)

As cliche as it is, Animals is probably my favourite.

That's one of the very first CD's I ever bought. Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast is fun to listen to :)

It is good song. My opinion has no real value, though, considering how easily I'm amused by the cereal crunching on that song.

yeah its "The Dark Side Of The Moo."

Guys I won a movie today from a radio station, thanks to Floyd.

They were doing a thing called "my two songs" where they play two songs that have a connection, and you have to guess it and you win something.

They played "Seamus" and "Dogs Of War", connection being dogs. It wasn't a very hard one, but still, hooray!

Very good. At least it wasn't as obvious as Dogs and Dogs Of War. :p

But alas, it is definitely one of their finest moments.

lol ur worrying about being cliche, my fav pf albums are animals and dsotm followed by wish you were here and the wall. i win the cliche award:naughty:

I think my favourite might always be [I]Meddle.[/I] One album that's really starting to grow on me, though, is [I]More.[/I]

Yeah Meddle is a great album and apart from Echoes and One Of These Days it's different to your average Floyd.

The first 6 songs on More are really the best songs that Pink Floyd produced in that early period of their careers.

[QUOTE=rippa32;14607014]Yeah Meddle is a great album and apart from Echoes and [B]One Of These Days[/B] it's different to your average Floyd.[/QUOTE]

The best lyrics on any song.

I really need to listen to [i]More[/i] a little bit more. I can't find it on CD anywhere though, and the one time I found it on vinyl, it was an import that cost 30 bucks. I've got it on my computer, though.

[QUOTE]The first 6 songs on More are really the best songs that Pink Floyd produced in that early period of their careers.[/QUOTE]Are you kidding? [I]More[/I] sucked, probably their worst album.

Some of their best earlier work appears on the album Relics. I'm just waiting for a metal band to cover The Nile Song.

[QUOTE=Schyma;14607775]Are you kidding? [I]More[/I] sucked, probably their worst album.[/QUOTE]

I didn't like it at first tbh. Wouldn't say it's their worst album though. For me, that title goes to AHM.

Cymbaline is an awesome song.

AHM is so good, I really don't understand the hate it gets.

I havn't heard it myself but I've always considered getting it since I saw the cover :p

[QUOTE=Schyma;14607775]Are you kidding? [I]More[/I] sucked, probably their worst album.[/QUOTE]

The remainder of the album is fairly poor, but in the late '60s era it stands out to me.

This is after PATGOD, of course.

Voivod did, it's pretty cool.

Has anyone heard Roger Waters new album? It it any good? The first single he released was decent...

Not yet. It sounds fairly similar to [I]Amused To Death[/I] from a sample I heard, however.

Did anybody else think "wow, Syd Barrett" the first time they read William Blake?

I've never read William Blake so...no.

Speaking of Syd Barrett there's some annoying commercial on t.v. now with a blond girl dancing around who looks like she could be Syd's daughter or something haha.

Last night was seriously one of the best of my life, I went to see Roger Waters at the MEN!

He did all of Dark Side of the Moon, 3 off WYWH, 1 off Animals, a few off The Wall and 1 off The Final Cut, oh and [I]Set The Controls For The Heart of the Sun[/I] :thumb:. He also played a new song of his own, called Leaving Beirut, which to be fair, was awful, the lyrics were cringeworthy (Political, as you would expect). However apart from that the show was awesome; the lighting, flying pigs, the sound, Sheep :)

However, it is SO annoying listening to people have conversations whilst you're trying to take in the sounds on stage. Seriously, they pay £50 and talk all the way through! I don't get it ...

Please tell me the song from Animals was Dogs...

Please...

I'd piss my pants if I listened Dogs live once.

It was probably Sheep.

Why is Roger Waters playing a bunch of Pink Floyd tunes? Hasn't he got his own repretoir by now?

Cause he's makin big bucks saying he's going to play all of Dark Side

He mixes the Pink Floyd stuff with his new stuff. Since he owns the copyright on most of the songs it doesn't cost him anything, I think.
