^ I've been wondering if that was any good

dr._feelgood 10-21-2005 11:03 PM

NP: Brain Damage

This is my favorite Floyd song right now. Definately the best lyrics from any Pink Floyd song

Britton 10-21-2005 11:08 PM

As much as I love DSOTM I have to say that I like
wish you were here more...then again that's kinda hard to say

magicbus 10-21-2005 11:11 PM

I've liked WYWH better than DSOTM at times, but now it's safe to say that they're both tied for first in my book. It can really be hard to pick your favorite Floyd album. It's like picking your favorite child.

Britton 10-21-2005 11:12 PM

I also love animals

dr._feelgood 10-21-2005 11:15 PM

Hmmm I'd say DSOTM = WYWH > The Wall > Animals. But Animals is still one of my favorite albums.

I'm not gonna try and argue it with you though, there's nowt as queer as folk.[/QUOTE]

I'm just curious, what other Floyd album do you think has more quality solos? I'm not asking this in defense of The Wall necessarily, j/w.

Britton 10-21-2005 11:16 PM

Go you!

I love animals so much

The wall is just Brilliant though

600TH POST[/QUOTE]

I've stopped trying to put them in order because it seems like my favorite is constantly changing, but right now it's Animals(hence my avatar)>DSOTM>The Wall>WYWH. Next week it'll probably be completely different though.

Britton 10-21-2005 11:34 PM

Yea I know how you feel.

Today I got saucer and The Madcap laughs

So I'm checkin them out

DeusExMachina 10-22-2005 12:24 AM

In terms of pure instrumental awesomeness, I'd say the best album is probably The Division Bell. Gilmour is just a much more developed and sophisticated guitarist on that recording. But that's just me.

Britton, did you get those from my email? Just curious. They're both quite good.

Time for me to sleep. So long all.

MBS 10-22-2005 12:26 AM

Deus, I don't think I'm on your list!

I haven't gotten any emails from you! :eek:

Edit: Deus, my friend Fnnrqwin's gonna upload David Gilmour In Concert for you (his computer is way faster).

I'll get you Jake Shimabukuro tomorrow.

Britton 10-22-2005 12:30 AM

I downloaded saucer but I already had madcap. It came in
the mail so it prolly was from you

I need to listen to that the whole way through, My dad lent me it ages ago, and i still havent listened to it yet.

Doctor Night 10-22-2005 01:57 AM

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]I've heard that show was really good. I don't have it yet, unfortunately.[/QUOTE]

Isn't the Wall that P.F do out on DVD. y'know the one where they build up the wall while their playing, then fly a plane into or something of that nature?

Nice to see Division Bell mentioned here. Maybe it does more than I realize, but I've rarely seen it brought up. I have to agree with this statement. Not only is Gilmour's playing superb, but I think his guitar tone on that album is the most ace it ever was. He had that baby singing there.

Dragon_Prince 10-22-2005 05:26 AM

The Devision Bell is great

Coming Back To Life, is his best guitar work ...

Hmm... scandalous. What's your email address? inevergiveyoumymoney@gmail, or something like that, right? I'll add it as soon as you confirm.

Oh, and thanks to Fnnrqwin for the upload. I thanked you (aaron) in the CR thread, but whatev.

standard 10-22-2005 10:03 AM

The Division Bell, I feel, is looked down onto from Floyd fans who really loved Waters. I really feel bad for them, because that album, I think, has some hit and miss lyrics, but more so hits. The music is .. Wow.

Marooned from TDB won a grammy for best instrumental of the year.

DeusExMachina 10-22-2005 10:05 AM

Marooned is incredible. That whole album is amazing. I just listened to it.

standard 10-22-2005 10:06 AM

I think The Division Bell just might be the most underated Floyd album... Either that or the album that nobody pays attention to. :P

DeusExMachina 10-22-2005 10:22 AM

In terms of this thread at the very least, I'd say TDB is the most underrated. It doesn't get talked about enough.

Actually, I'm (GASP!) starting to really get into The Final Cut. Far from my favorite, but I'm still really digging it.

standard 10-22-2005 10:26 AM

It is a DAMN good album.

It's what got me into Floyd.. Thanks to my Dad. I still love jamming to Floyd with him. :P

guitarded_chuck 10-22-2005 10:32 AM

I'm in love with [i]Obscured By Clouds[/i] right now. I finally picked it up for a cheap $10 this week, and it's great! Highlighted by perhaps Gilmour's best guitar playing. [i]Fat Old Sun[/i] is one of my favorite Gilmour songs. I have a bootleg of that song with an extended solo, and it's a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

LF96 10-22-2005 10:50 AM

So I bought Live At Pompeii today and I must say it's awesome. The biggest surprise was Nick Mason, he really does some crazy sh*t on Saucerful Of Secrets and Echoes, didn't expect that from him. He always gave me the impression of a laid back drummer but he really rocks out on LAP.

Cool, another Division Bell fan. I could listen to High Hopes a million times and not get bored. Probably my favorite Gilmour solo after Comfortably Numb, Shine On, and Time. Marooned is great as well. The lyrics are far from great, though.

I don't even think the lyrics are bad. Amazing? No. But I'd say they're good.

thickasabrick 10-22-2005 02:33 PM

I think most Pink Floyd fans who listen to The Division Bell like/love it, does anyone in here not like it? The Division Bell makes me feel very good inside.

I woke up and did a little wake n bake, turned on Wish You Were Here (vinyl) and made some morning eggs and tea. Right now I'm on Shine On You Crazy Diamond (part VI, I do beleive). Today's turning out to be a Pink Floyd day I think...I'd say Saucerful of Secrets sounds like it should be listened to next. Anyone listen to Saucerful of Secrets yet today? It's not the type of album I usually listen to in the morning, I am usually more of a Meddle/DSOTM/WYWH kind of guy for Pink Floyd in the morning, and I really like Saucerful of Secrets, PATGOD, DSOTM and The Wall at nighttime (basically just the albums I have the CDs of are the ones I listen to at night). Although it is 2:30 in the afternoon now...so Saucerful of Secrets should be good to go.

:D

Sounds like a good day to me. It's a jam band day for me. Although I was listening to Saucerful of Secrets earlier, actually.

Forgive me for ignorance, but what is a wake and bake?

[quote]I don't even think the lyrics are bad. Amazing? No. But I'd say they're good.[/quote]

Meh, High Hopes has great ones, but the others are pretty average. I'm in a bit of Dylan mood right now, put on some Rush before, but now I just started Desire. Hurricane is my fav Dylan song.
