i think theyre too different to compare

weatherman123 11-01-2004 10:11 PM

in my opinion:

animals>meddle>dsotm>wywh>the wall>patgod>ummagumma>saucerful>thats all i have

Lateralias 11-01-2004 10:55 PM

The only thing I don't like about Animals is the song Pigs (3 different ones), it loses my attention after the first few minutes... but I love the rest of that album... Dogs and Sheep are amazing songs, with great solos too.

~The*Lemon*Song~ 11-02-2004 11:12 AM

I love Animals. Animals, Meddle, The Wall, DSOTM...those are probably my favourites. I like Obscured by Clouds as well.

DeusExMachina 11-02-2004 11:54 AM

WYWH Is their best CD, in my opinion. Every song on it is just amazing. And its got my two favorite songs of all time (SOYCD and WYWH)

ledpoisoning27 11-02-2004 03:42 PM

the band is quite fantansic, thats really what i think... o by the way which one is pink?

weatherman123 11-02-2004 04:44 PM

i think we can all agree that as brilliant as dave gilmour is/was, he is no watters when it comes to putting albums together...

frkn'loud 11-02-2004 05:07 PM

Pink Floyd named themselves after two blues musicians: Pink Anderson and Floyd Council (this was back when they used to play bluesy stuff). So none of the the band memebers are pink or floyd

DeusExMachina 11-02-2004 05:57 PM

Um... whats your point? We all know that none of the members are named Pink or Floyd. I'm pretty sure everyone knew where the name came from. When LedPoisoning27 said that, he was quoting Have A Cigar, not actually asking a question.

Heh, I like how he knew that trivia, and didn't realize that those were Pink Floyd lyrics :p

I am gonna have no reputation any where I go :(

Kingofdudes 11-02-2004 06:20 PM

I hate it when people just randomly post info, trying to act like their #1 fanboy.

I think it has something to do with insecurity. Or else just generally being moronic. It doesn't make you cool to like obscurities. I hate the people who say DSotM and The Wall were crap compared to say, Atom Heart Mother :angry:

the mighty zep 11-02-2004 06:54 PM

I base my enitre life around DSOTM. I just think its the best thing to happen to music...its so perfect and original. I mean, what doesnt it have that makes a great album? Other than the cost...

but yeah, next to dark side - WYWH. Probably the most meaningful album made. and then Animals. The Wall is probably my least favorite, though it serves for a good story. Comfortably numb and ABITW are an exception, but the rest could be better. not the Floyd im used to

Obviously they are "better" because they were hugely more sucessful. However, generally, the point is more to do with the fact that some people never go deeper than Dark Side. For instance, songs like echoes never get respect, and the two best things by them (in my opinion) would be Piper and WYWH. And no one gives piper any respect

Riva 11-02-2004 09:50 PM

I respect all of Pink Floyd's work, but I just don't see how people can deliberately name some obscure Floyd song as the greatest purely to be an elitist.

Master-of-bates 11-02-2004 09:51 PM

I got Dark side of the moon playing on my record player right now :)

What the fuc[font=]k[/font] did you say? I'm guessing you broke the fingers on one hand, and you're just mashing the keyboard with your fingers. :lol:

Orange Fog 11-02-2004 10:26 PM

I think Animals is a little under-rated...

It's my favorite album, you just HAVE TO LOVE Dogs, Pigs (Three Different Ones), and Sheep. All amazing songs, they blow my mind.

whitelightning 11-02-2004 10:29 PM

everyone should take another look at pink floyds piper at the gates of dawn it is one of their greatest albums thanks to syd barrett

Kingofdudes 11-02-2004 10:33 PM

Everyone should read through this whole thread, or at least the latest posts.

thelizardkingcc 11-02-2004 10:40 PM

i think that one of their long songs has to be their "greatest" which is truly immeasurable, but if i were to choose which one was the "most great" in terms of grandeur or something like that, it would be echoes or shine on you crazy diamond... absolutely musical masterpieces.

It's like people saying Led Zeppelin is overrated, or that the Yardbirds were (when Pagey was in) better than Zep.

I like Sheep off of Animals...cause that's what people are...follow the shephard everyone. Pigs (3 diff ones) is great as well. I wonder if Mary is someone Waters dated?

I voted for Floyd as well...even though Zep is my favourite band, I still think Pink Floyd was the most original, unbeatable, and just all around superior band.
