Most definitely and atm my favorite album is also Meddle although of course Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall are classics.

Pink Floyd = win. I actually like Dark Side of the Moon better than The Wall. Meddle is also fantastic.

Piper at the Gates of Dawn is a GREAT CD (although its such a shame what happened to Syd Barrett.

Animals, any album based off a George Orwell novel is worth it in my book, and of course The Wall is Amazing. I like most floyd albums, although I haven't listened to floyd in a while

I fucking worship Pink Floyd... beautiful music.

Best albums... Hmm, though question, I'd say my favorites are Piper at the Gates of Dawn, Wish You Were Here, The Wall, Final Cut, A Momentary Lapse of Reason, Division Bell... Can't really pick one...

Hello, hello, hello... Is there anybody out there?

Pink Floyd are a fantastic band and their best album in my opinion is wish you were here.

DSOTM followed by Animals are their best

Yeah, Wish You Where here was one of my favorites. The title song is a bit melancholy/sad though (yet it is a great tune).

Pink Floyd are overrated. Some of there oldest stuff is ok though. It is too damn pessimistic. Kill yourself already, jeez.

Rock on!

It is too damn pessimistic.
The later stuff yes but it still can't be compared with some of the more modern music.

I would say that Wish You Were Here is my favorite album followed by DSOTM. PATGOD is pretty nice too.

I think they're a decent band.

Basically, they're not a band that I find myself listening to a lot, but I must give them superkudos for the way they revolutionized music, and for their killer live shows. When they actually get into the music I can enjoy them, but I'm not much for the ten minute spells of odd noises and artsy stuff like that.

I'd have to say my favorite album is DSOTM.

Just finished listening to Dark Side of the Moon stoned for the first time less than a minute ago, they're so much better that way.

It's cliche, but Dark Side is still my favorite. Animals, Piper, Meddle, Wish You Were Here, The Wall--really, it's all great stuff. I don't care for the 80s/90s stuff, but that doesn't really count.

One of my favorite bands for sure. Check out Dub Side of the Moon by the Easy Start All Stars. It's basically a Jamaican version of DSotM, a reggae/dub remix. Cool stuff.

I love Pink Floyd. The wall's a bit overated album though. Momentary Lapse of Reason is probably my favorite album of theirs.

any of you see the wall movie, man that shits trippy.

Your a douche bag.

David Gilmour is an excellent guitar player. Syd Barret was cool, but he was fucking off his rocker from doing so much acid. So yeah. Meddle is good Animals is good Wish You Were Here is really good. I like Have a cigar.

How the fuck can you not like pink floyd?

the wall movie was amazing that is the best thing pink floyd put out.

Pink Floyd are great if you really wanna see/hear something weird get a copy of Wizard of OZ, press play and pause on Dark side of the moon, and when the MGM Lion roars for the second time press play. Wether stoned or not it's very very strange!

I'm actually a bigger fan of Syd Barrett's solo stuff then i am of Pink Floyd. Madcap Laughs is one of the best albums ever made in my opinion.

it's a pitty that he died

and yeah I'm a Floyd fan, but I don't have so much cd's of them. The Wall is pretty nice, but actually, I like Echoes more, it's a best of.

Has anyone heard of the live album 'break down co-ordinatory'??? i got it at a garage sale for about 2 bucks its pretty awesome except the quality is really bad unfortunatly

Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall are pretty damn good.

Yes, it really is

at the end of his live, he was kind of a bum or what ? I don't know how you call those ppl, that live very lonely, and don't come out of the house much ...

Floyd rocks...or did rock, the first five hundred times I heard them.

I like it all, really. The old stuff with Sid and the new stuff with Gilmour. Mason is the lamest drummer I have ever heard, though, but Floyd is a band that sounds good as a whole, with no single musician being very skilled.

Guess what. Lee Ritenour plays the lead in "Another Brick in the Wall." Didn't know that, did you? You thought it was Gilmour.

The old psycedelic stuff was too cool.

"Marmalade, I like Marmalade...."

"Micro-bioptic stuff..."

(Atom Heart-mother...awesome album)

David Gilmour is pretty fucking skilled, IMO

Inithias

i think, after all those years that they've been playing, that they gained skill
