2. Pulse Live

This is a really difficult topic.

I will just say that Animals is #1 for me and all other albums are a really close #2.
 
Tough subject. My list could change depending on which album I'm listening to at the time. Here's my top 5:

1. Dark Side of the Moon
2. The Division Bell
3. Wish You Were Here
4. Animals
5. The Wall
 
Would probably be different if you asked me in a week's time. :)

Dark Side Of The Moon
Meddle
Wish You Were Here
A Saucerful Of Secrets
The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn
 
depends on the shuffle

easy. #1 Division Bell.

#2-5, next four that pop up on the playlist, or next four in the stack. i own them all, vinyl, cd, digital (ripped from cd), and a crap load of bootleg stuff.

there is no bad Pink Floyd, even when Syd was singing. :)

Animals

The Wall

Honorary mention to every other Pink Floyd album ;)

I am not trying to cramp your style or anything but have you listened to any PF album from beginning to end? You must only listen to Justin Bieber or have no idea the amount of influence PF has had on real music made by real musicians. I am just going to think your opinion is misguided and you only listen to the abomination that most people consider music today, so I guess it's not your fault, you opinion has become the epitome of bad music.

I have had the unfortunate occasion to listen to pretty much all of them beginning to end. I have also had the unfortunate occasion to witness a PF Laser light show in 1995. PF songs are to slow, drawn out and boring. Say what you have to say and stop playing every song doesn't need to exceed 5 minutes so you can let us hear your "outstanding" guitar playing.

Heh...I just tried to listen to nofx...I lasted about 5 seconds. Awful and just like pretty much every other band of their genre. Give me a Pink Floyd guitar solo any day. :D

Chris' Disclaimer: Anything piece of music that isn't punk rock, **** the world stuff is boring, whiney, over-extended crap. We've hit this hurdle quite a few times now mate, haven't we? ;)

...But anyway, my choices;

Dark Side Of The Moon
The Wall
Animals
Meddle
Pulse
 
Music for the manic depressive... good when you are a teenager and your parents "doesn't get it". The good old days...

I used to listen to it a lot but that was it. Still, they music still soooo well produced and so clean and it was made 30+ years ago.

Heh...nice.

I forgot to put my albums in:

The Wall
Wish You Were Here
Dark Side of The Moon
A Momentary Lapse of Reason
The Division Bell

I'm generally not a fan of earlier Pink Floyd stuff at all.
