This new one works for me more than anything they released since, well, Animals but it also confirms that Pink Floyd ruled only when they were a more democratic band. PF as a pseudo-solo vehicle, whether it be the Barrett, Waters or Gilmour version, just sounds incomplete in comparison.

What you say about Waters or Gilmour makes sense, they complimented each other. What you're saying about Barrett is INSANE. Piper at the Gates of Dawn doesn't rule????
― dan selzer, Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:33 (nine years ago) link
Barrett Floyd was more democratic than Waters or (especially) Gilmour Floyd (mainly because Gilmour Floyd, at least on AMLOR, had no other Floyd members).
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Thursday, 13 November 2014 17:55 (nine years ago) link
Barrett Floyd also featured songs written by Waters and Wright, and sung by them! And is also totally faultless.
― dan selzer, Thursday, 13 November 2014 18:29 (nine years ago) link
Okay, you're right, Barrett Floyd isn't the same situation as with the Waters and Gilmour Floyds. But I've never really warmed to the Piper era (except for Astronomy Domine and See Emily Play) so nope, it doesn't rule for me.

I'll say it again, because I played it again in the car:

You need this.
This is the reimagined second album with Syd. Side 1 is perfect, side 2 loses it a little but is still great.

PINK FLOYD RULES
Funnily enough, I jut GIs'd that pic, and there's the next one taken just after.
So I can relate that at least one of them is thinking "I've had enough, I'm getting in the pool"

Wow, the Deaner cover really nailed the way the vocals sound on the early 70s boots.

So would it be unkind to say that some of the new one sounds like commissioned music for one of those Pink Floyd Under Review DVDs?
Still liking it better than The Division Bell so far tho'.

If you haven't done so already, you need to communicate this to Mr. Yankovic post haste.

Nick Mason has never been the greatest drummer in the world. Far from it. In fact, Pink Floyd's rhythm section is easily the worst aspect of the band musically to me. Having said that, his drumming is okay on Wish You Were Here and Animals. On The Dark Side Of The Moon he just sounds like a stoned amateur.
