Rolling Stone does reviews for a little thing called, hmm what was it... money. They can't review, they can't make lists, and they have no idea what they are talking about. Because of Pop culture, they have somehow become the most popular music magazine, but don't listen to them.
The reviews by your fellow MXers are way better. Check out Sputnik. I've done a few reviews, including A Saucerful of Secrets and Zep IV. |
Pink Floyd are my favorite band.
|
Alright, thank you for adding to the discussion...
I wonder if we could do all the PF albums on Sputnik? |
[QUOTE=Iron_Fist]Pink Floyd are my favorite band.[/QUOTE]
So is just about all of ours. |
[QUOTE=Gilmour]Alright, thank you for adding to the discussion...
I wonder if we could do all the PF albums on Sputnik?[/QUOTE] I havent checked, but id think just about all of em wouldve been reviewed by now, except maybe some greatest hits. And im gonna try to update my Division Bell review, Gilmour. Hopefully the site isnt still acting up |
DSOTM could use a re-reviewing. Last time i read it, it was terrible, and didnt include enough facts for such an revolutionary album.
I would get dibs on Obscurred by clouds, but im still yet to own the CD. Its my next buy though. Hell, maybe ill get it with my next internet order. |
Just bought Animals today and listened the entire album. Favourite treack: Dogs. But I still find WYWH more pleasing, and is still my favourite PF album.
Next buy: I'm thinking 'The Wall,' either the movie or the CD. |
[QUOTE=Med57]The Wall got a rather mixed reception as well. What can we learn from this? Just ignore anything and everything The Rolling Stone says.[/QUOTE]
[b]Actually[/b], Rolling Stone said that The Wall was the best album of the 1980s. Even though it was released in '79. |
[QUOTE=Med57]Pink Floyd albums not done on Sputnik:
More:The Soundtrack To The Motion Picture Ummagumma Obscured By Clouds A Momentary Lapse Of Reason Compilations not included. I'm considering re-reviewing DSOTM and Animals.[/QUOTE] I did a review of Animals on a separate site. I haven't checked the one on Sputnik, but I doubt mine is any better. I just liked it enough to review it myself. |
[QUOTE=Med57]:lol: That's brilliant. But Rolling Stone aside, I'm sure it wasn't recieved universally well. I just found a quote from a music magazine called Sounds, which said at the time of The Wall's release, "From no little Floydian experience, I can assure you with confidence that this is the worst Pink Floyd album ever." Sometimes you've just got to wonder how people become music critics...[/QUOTE]
Because they are critics. For some reason magazines want people that will pan everything. It actually sells. |
I have DSOTM as my desktop background now. :)
|
Critics are legless men that teach how to run.

I almost got Saucerful of Secrets today, but then I didn't.
|
[QUOTE=lunch998]I almost got Saucerful of Secrets today, but then I didn't.[/QUOTE]
I've been doing that for a few weeks. I always pick it out at the store, then I end up not getting it. I will though, because I love that cd and Richard Wright rules on it. |

Turns out me and my bro are going to a CD store tomorrow, so I'm promising myself that I'll get it. |
[QUOTE=Med57]Pink Floyd albums not done on Sputnik:

Critics are just bitter musicians who couldn't make it themselves, so they take out their frustration by bashing other musicians. My uncle is like that, he talks trash about SRV all the time, and says that any average blues guitarist could do what SRV could, but he's just very jealous that he didn't get big.

I still need to buy PATGOD, but no one has it.
|
Best Buy has PATGOD.
I miss the feeling I got when I first heard those notes ring out on SOYCD pt. 2. It was so amazing hearing it for the first time. |

Mine starts about 3:55, after the intro guitar part is done. The four notes. You'll know what I mean.

Sorry, when you said SOYCD pt.2 I thought you meant the last track on the CD. I know what you mean though. |
[QUOTE=magicbus]Best Buy has PATGOD..[/QUOTE]

I was at a Best Buy today and they have 2-3 copies of PATGOD. |
I bought PATGOD and Animals on Borders...

[QUOTE=lunch998]I was at a Best Buy today and they have 2-3 copies of PATGOD.[/QUOTE]
Last time I went my Bestbuy had a bunch of those CDs as well. |
Next I go to Best Buy I'm getting A Saucerful of Secrets and another album by either Frank Zappa or Jeff Beck.
|
How is Saucerful anyway?
|
[QUOTE=TerryThorne]How is Saucerful anyway?[/QUOTE]
I love Saucerful. Its different from their latter stuff, but I think its a good different. Plus it has the last song they did with Syd. I recommend it. |
