Maybe they get too much credit sometimes, maybe you prefer Yes or King Crimson or Rush or anything else...but there is no denying, when the summer gets up in the hot 100s and the night comes rolling in at a low 90s-mid 80s...it's time to put on some damn PF albums that you've heard time and time again.

I've been going through all their stuff this week, from See Emily Play up to the Gunners Dream. 

Favorite album: Animals
Favorite song: Echoes
Favorite song in the Syd Barrett era- Bike

nah man, they just can't get enough credit. Pink Floyd is one of the greatest and you know it! funny how it's summer music for you - for me it's winter music. same with Led Zeppelin. when the first snow falls in the winter, that's when I put the Floyd and Zeppelin albums on repeat.

favorite album: it's a complete tie between The Wall and Animals
Favorite song: Pigs
Favorite song in Syd Barrett era: Astronomy Domine

You changed your name.  Weird.

Although it's not a PF album, Syd's first solo album The Madcap Laughs is also excellent.

I'm gonna sound like a hypocrite here but I really 'don't get this band'  :-\ I've tried countless times to like them but can't...

I don't love Floyd as much as I used to, but they definitely still hold a special place in my heart.

Favorite album: Animals
Favorite song: Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Pts. 1-9

Atleast you've tried.  Most people that hate PF just do so because of their popularity.

I haven't been listening to them a whole lot lately, but they're probably my favorite band of all time. They're great songwriters and musicians, and they've released so many top notch albums it's retarded.

The list seems like a mandatory thing, so i'll slap one up too.

Favorite album: Dark side of the moon
Favorite track: Sheep

bright lights, big city

yeah I haven't listened to them in a long, long time, but I still consider Shine On You Crazy Diamond as one of my favorite songs by any band.
favorite album's gotta be Dark Side of the Moon, though

I'm not a big fan of the band, I've even heard more than 4 albums. But I think obscured by clouds is quite underrated, don't you think so?

Ohhh, the thing I love the most of pink floyd is their phaser sound, wanted by everyone, achieved by only one.

the member who posted it for you is ben... unless paint your lips (marty) posted the album in another thread. you have peoples boardnames messed up

ben  used to have the name. heydudeitsmeben.. and c-shells.. he had a few more as well but i remember those the most vividly


anyway.. the album u want is 1971, i believe

it has tracks like. Fat Old Sun ( which the last 5 minutes of the song is possibly one of the best jam sessions ive ever heard )
echoes is on there. one of these days.
all those greats

Having not listened to Floyd in about 3 years, I decided to give their albums a spin a couple of days ago and yet again I'm hooked on their incredible music.

Fucking amazing band.
